I'm A Big Girl Now!

I am very excited to share that Lotus has been using Pull-Ups since last week on a consisent basis. She loves to wear them, if I dare try to put on a diaper, she screams PULLLLL-UPPPPP! They are the encouragement she needed, esepecially since candy and stickers did not really work. She understands these are big girl pants ans she is to go on the potty, not in her Pull-Up. If she does go in her Pull-Up, she then needs to switch back to her diaper for a period of time. It seems to be working for the most part except when she gets really wrapped up in playing or when I sometimes forget and then we have a wet Pull-Up. We try to keep her in them all day except for nap and bedtime and she has been doing quite well. She definitely is interested now. Some of it might have to do with school. Her teacher is working with her classmates and her on a regular basis on Potty How To's. Not to mention, one classmate is wearing underwear! This week her teacher is going to work with Lotus and her Pull-Ups during school days too. Hopefully we will be out of diapers soon! Check out the Potty Dance e-card below, it is too cute.

My First Flash Back Friday

Finally! It has been 15 months since we have returned from China, therefore over a years worth of photos! So here it is, my first Flash Back Friday post. The photo on the left is from Jan 2008 and the photo on the right is from Jan 2009.

I was so surprised when I pulled up the photo from over a year ago. I cannot believe how fast she is growing up, sigh. No matter how big she gets, she will always be my little girl.

Enjoy your weekend!
