Big Girl Unner-Wear and Sittin' Tall!

Piper has been sitting on the potty off and on for awhile now. We've tried various incentive items to get her to sit on the potty more (stickers, etc.) with varying success. However, talking about getting to wear big girl underwear seems to be the best motivator for her. Well, apparently, "talk is cheap", because she recently decided to stop going on the potty all together. I only recently figured out that this was because she was ready to wear underwear and was tired of just talking about it. Geez, get with the program mom!

So...this weekend was the start of wearing "big-girl unner-wear". We gave it a shot on Saturday and she did great! She liked wearing them so much she decided that was all she needed to wear. And she looked so stinkin' cute, who could argue with her.


We put a diaper back on for her nap on Saturday, and when she got up she didn't want to put the underwear back on. So she kept the diaper on. Sunday, after church, she was ready to try again and wore them for the rest of the day. And she also went to school in them today (along with the required 4 changes of clothes-hee, hee!) and was so excited. She couldn't wait to get there and show Mrs. Theresa and Ms. Melinda her "pincess unner-wear".

Boone started using his little high chair over the weekend. I think he really enjoys being at the table on a chair like the rest of us.
