Atleast one of my new year's resolutions will get accomplished this year.
Lucy is offically a "big girl!"
Sometimes the things we are dreading the most don't turn out to be so hard after all.
It took Lucy about two days to master the potty. She hasn't had an accident since.
As you can see she changes her panties several times a day just for the fun of a new pair and she has to put them on all by herself. She usually likes to wear her big sister's best.
Tonight she came down the stairs 3 times after I tucked her into bed to tell me that she had to go potty. She knows that, that excuse works every time. After I told her that she couldn't go to the bathroom one more time tonight, she came down again and told me that she needed to do her homework. I wanted to get so mad at her, but decided to take a deep breath and help her with her important homework. (We read a book together) She is finally back in bed and I have my fingers crossed that I don't hear her little footprints again until morning. But I know better, she usually wakes up 3-4 times a night and comes and climbs in next to me. Once she is back to sleep I carry her back to her bed. Lucy is now sleeping with Abbie since we moved Emilee and Max down in the basement. Twice last night Lucy found her way down both flights of stairs to the basesment in the dark to get in bed with Emilee. They have been bed partners for so long that she misses her big sister. Em only has a single bed now and there isn't room for them both. So Emilee walked Lucy back up the stairs both times half a sleep and told her to stay in her bed.! Atleast she wasn't waking me up for a change.
