Lack of Cooperation :(

Well, William and I went to the doc today to see what the baby is and it wasn't successful. :( The doc said that every time he thought it was either a boy or a girl, he realized it was the cord in the way. So, we wait another three weeks. March 3rd. I have thought of trying for a 3D somewhere, but we don't need to spend money on that and this will be a good lesson in patience!

Taking Full Advantage of the Potty

Well, I have news to report!!!! Winter has finally decided to take full advantage of the toilet! William has been trying to get her motivated to use the potty for a while. She will stay dry in "big girl panties" as she calls them, but hasn't wanted to stay clean. On Sunday at small groups, someone had a min pin puppy that she just LOVED! He notice this and finally told her if she used the potty to poop then he would get her a puppy. Well, she finally did!! I know bribing is bad...but hey, it is working right? We went to supper Tuesday night and celebrated with her and then took her to the pet store. There was a puppy there that we wanted, but the store REALLY liked it (to the tune of $600!!!!!), so we didn't get it. On Wednesday morning she messed in her pull up before school. She told William, "But I didn't poop in my big girl panties!" So, we still have some things to work on, but she did it again today. It seems as if we are finally on the way to potty trained! I hope it is good and done before the next one comes along in June!

On that note, I will have more to report on the sex of the baby, if it cooperates, on Monday, Feb 11th. We just can't wait!!
More then!!!
