Potty trained in a day!

Yes, I am proud to say it took my Emma one day to potty train herself. Of course she is over 3 years old but guess who didn't have to deal with accidents a gazzilion times. She has tried underwear here and there, just to get the idea. She pooed in them twice before and was totally grossed out by it. Well, after spending Thanksgiving over at a friend's house, that was it for her. There was a little girl there, about her size but in 1st grade and they are very good friends. Emma went in the restroom with her and saw what she was doing. Yesterday, she decided she wanted to wear underwear. She has been in them ever since! She has surprised us by going in, not even asked and using the potty chair. Today she did her poo twice! That was the one thing the just had a hard time with. She even complained her bottom hurt and needed a diaper. With coaxing, she did it once and then the second time on her own!

Emma now has her own room now! Emily decided she wanted back in the FROG but to share with Lizzie. (The FROG is our Finished Room Over Garage. It is like 15x20. HUGE and PINK) After talking extensively with all the kids and Mike about it, we decided to run with it. Now Emma has her own room! It is lavender which totally matches her Dora stuff. I just need to go and buy her curtains! She got the bigger of the two other rooms. One: Michael is a slob and we can keep in in one room Two: She has the bigger closet and dresser for her baby brother or sister's clothes. By the time the baby needs to be moved out of our room, we will be moving either to WA or VA.

Off to make dinner! What a good holiday it has been!
