Pink Princess Panties!

Since my close friends and family know that I have no control over my oldest daughter, (she has been in charge of her schedule from the moment that she was born) it should come as no shock what she decided to do today. A week ago, we picked out some "Pink Princess Panties" (you must say that in a very loud, almost screaming voice because that is how Rylee would say it whenever it was brought up) to get her ready to potty-train. Mostly I bought them on the slim chance that I would want to potty-train her, because at the moment, it just hasn't been something that I want to do. Well,apparently today was the day, because she got them out of her drawer and came and told me that she wanted to wear them. You can't fight her.
So all day long we have been huddling around the bathrooms listening with anticipation the first tinkling in the potty. And all day long she would sit there for five or so minutes, say she was done, get her Pink Princess Panties on again and then within two minutes pee on my floor. Luckily, we have mostly hardwood and travertine on the main level, so it is easier to clean up. But still no fun. Well after the 10th pair of underwear, she finally went. I could tell another accident was waiting to happen, so I kept her on the potty until she couldn't hold it any longer. I am pretty sure that I was more excited than she was, and might have scared her a bit by my scream of relief. Hopefully tomorrow will be easier and more will actually make it into the potty. Here's to hoping, and to many cans of anti-bacterial spray.

Way. Way, Behind!

So I know that I am way behind on this whole blogging thing, and truthfully, the more time passes the more I don't want to sit down and record anything. I think that I fell totally overwhelmed with what I have to talk about. So hopefully I can take it one moment at a time and jot down a few notes on what has been happening in our lives. (Mostly for my sake) Until that time period, I just want you all to know that we are moved in and really enjoying our new home. I would post a photo or two, but my camera is not hooked up to my computer yet, so you will have to wait. For those of you that don't want to wait, come by and see me. I am not used to being out in the country by myself, and could use some company every now and then. By the way, my phone number is still the same. I miss all of my friends, and hope that all is finding you well. Love ya!
