Bye Bye Baby


So today was the day to say "Bye Bye Diapers" for Sweet E. This morning we told her that it was time for her to start being a big girl, and that she was going to start wearing her princess underwear. She was a little reluctant but gave in. She had one accident this morning....but has gone in the toilet ever since. Every time she sits on the toilet she gets a skittle....which she thinks is GREAT!! Then she realized she could have a little piece of a brownie when she actually 'went' in the toilet. Man oh man she will do anything for a little snippet of brownie. So after she went the first time and saw our excitement and tasted her sweet treat the rest has been easy. She is SO EXCITED to use the potty. She has even gone number 2 on the toilet twice....all on her own. I hope she keeps that up...because that part was a NIGHTMARE with Mr. C. Anyway, it is still early in the process...but I hope she continues to be this easy! The bummer is I just bought a new case of diapers last week!

On a side note...while life will be a lot cheaper, and less NASTY without diapers it will be a little bitter sweet to know that we no longer have a baby in our house :-( and what am I going to do now that I don't have to lug a diaper bag all around??

I think you may need to send all those diapers over to Roxy, I heard she might be able to use them.
