Motherhood

Doesn't she look so old?? I cut her bangs and I think it makes her look so grown up.
Josie is officially potty trained. She's become very smart with using the potty as an excuse. Every time I tell her it is time to go to bed or take a nap or if I want to take a shower she always has to go to the bathroom. I don't know how they can figure that out so fast. They are just too smart for their own good. I'm just glad that she's trained. Woohoo!!!

Josie is not much of a talker these days but she does have the same conversation with me everyday, many times a day. Here how it goes

Josie: "Dada?" with her hands up in the air wonder where he went.
Melanie: "He went to work."
Josie: "Oh, Ball?"
Melanie: "No, he went to work."
Josie: "NO BALL!!!"
Melanie: "OK he's playing ball."

Josie thinks her dad is always playing soccer or basketball when he really is at work. I think this getting rid of the Binky and the sleeping in the bed is going to be a lot harder than potty training. My friends have suggested cutting the Binky's. I didn't want to do that at first but I think that is the only way. I think I'll do it this coming week. Wish me luck:)

PS i hate the stupid word verification. i have tried to post my comment 3 times now and can't seem to get those dumb letters right. grrrr. it's funny how the more you mess up the easier the letters become.

I'm so happy for you. Potty training is over. I started today and so far it's going great. I got her off the binki about four months ago. I just stated slow. first I took it during the morning and then the afternoon. then i did naps then nights. I couldn't believe it worked. I would rather be done with potty training . lucky
