I haven’t been posting because my blasted computer isn’t accepting my card reader again. I have cute pictures but no way to share them!
In the meantime, we’re getting Janie ready to move in with the big kids. This week is our first dry run before Uncle Matthew comes this weekend and her room gets turned into a guest room for a few days. Tonight she cried and cried in her crib, so we let her have wind-down time with her sisters. Then she told us she wanted to stay in bed with them at lights-out. Susie couldn’t find Old Lionel, though, so it was quite active and unsettled even with the lights out. At 9:40 pm, Janie waddled out to grab a book from the family room, and that was enough of that. I swept her up and put her back in her crib, much to her displeasure. We’ll try again tomorrow!
In other news, Janie has been going potty on the potty chair about once a day. I haven’t had to change a dirty diaper on Susie for about three days. It’s amazing what Frozen stickers will do to motivate an almost-four year old to use the bathroom.
Maybe Susie and Janie will motivate each other and they will both get potty trained at the same time!! 🙂 Have a Happy Easter and a fun time with Matthew!
I’m just baffled by the “Frozen” phenomenon. I hope you can help me navigate “how to do Disney” after the baby is born. Every time – and I mean every single time – we have gone to the OBGYN, Frozen is on in the waiting room. No other movie.
How to Do Disney: avoid as long as possible. Seriously. We give in at potty training time, but I’ve always regretted it… On the plus side, it gives them something in common with the rest of the universe, which is nice when you’re the child of a couple of geeks!
Ok. Maybe if we have enough cats, they won’t need Disney for entertainment. Ever.
