FIRSTS

Brynlee has had a couple of "firsts" this week.  The first one being that we decided to try potty training her this week.  Since Carson doesn't have preschool this week, I thought it would be a great time to stay at home and focus on potty training.  I have been avoiding this, but she has been really interested lately, so we thought we would give it a shot.  Well, it's only been a couple of days and she's doing pretty good.

She has a potty chart

A container of potty treats

A little doll that pees on the potty too (thanks Aunt Lynece!)

And a cute little smile when she actually goes! (okay, is that not the cutest picture ever!?)

She has had a few accidents, but several successes. She has even told us several times that she needs to go...and then goes!  She even woke up in the middle of the night to go...now that's crazy!

So, so far, so good.  We'll keep giving it the old college try and maybe she'll be easy to potty train (knock on wood).  I'm sure hoping so, I HATE potty training!!

***Today's Update: it's only day 3, but Bryn did AWESOME today!!!  She only had one accident and that was b/c she told Dan she needed to go and he didn't believe her b/c she had just gone 10mins before....she really did need to go, she wasn't kidding!  Oops!!  But, she told us when she needed to go today and she went...amazing!!!  Maybe she will be easy...knock on wood.

The other first for Brynlee was her first haircut.  The boys were getting haircuts and she said she wanted one too...so I said "sure, why not!".  She took her shirt right off (like the boys do) and sat on the chair.  She sat still the whole time I sprayed her hair with cold water, combed out all the knots, and cut it.  Don't worry, I only trimmed it.  She was soo cute sitting there and sooo happy!
