A Big Girl Kind of Day

I know one day Adelyn is going to love the fact that I decided to blog about her and her pottying habits.  I can’t help myself though! Yesterday was a big day in the life of my baby girl!

We have been working on and off with Adelyn when it comes to her potty training.  I started a couple months ago, but then found with the business of the holidays that we had kind of quit trying.  I truly feel like she is at an age where she can understand what is going on and is ready for this jump.  She’s very excited to be “big like brudders” and go to the bathroom like they do!

I’ve basically just jumped in full throttle and put her strictly in underwear (or nothing!) when we’ve been home the past few days.  The first day it was just accident after accident after accident.  Poor little sweetheart was so upset every time.  We continued to talk it through though and she seemed to understand what she needed to do.

Well yesterday I was up in the kitchen giving Grayson a haircut when I heard this little girl yell, “I did it Mommy!”  She had her little hands in the air raised over her head in victory.  I dropped the scissors on the counter and ran down to see.  Sure enough, she had!  Grayson, Ethan, and myself started to do the potty dance and whoop and holler and cheer for her! She was so so proud of herself!

Taken a few days ago.  Just hanging out!

This was her yesterday after her successful attempt!  She was so proud of herself and loved telling her Daddy all about it last night.

We’re so proud of you Adelyn! My baby is growing up!
