I am warning those of you who read this blog that from now on, I'll probabily be talking about my child's pee and poo activity on a regular basis...it's just one of those things at this stage in her life and ours. sorryyyyyy
Anyway, Brynn surprised us all this morning when she woke up and told me, "potty, mommy" and lifted up the lid to the toilet. I told her to go get her seat and stool, so she did. She sat on the toilet and minutes later, she was grunting away and pooped in the potty! I could not believe it! if potty training her is going to be this easy, sign me up! LOL
I included some pics of little Bee blowing bubbles, her new favorite thing to do. Every day when we get home, she asks if we can go out and play bubbles. Sometimes it's too cold or too windy out, and since she's had a bit of a runny nose and a cough, I have decided we can only go out on warmer days to try and keep her healthy enough until I am done w/ school.
I have been working hard to get rid of her "mimi" (AKA Pacifier) when we're driving in the car. So far, 3 days down after daycare and no mimi. Now, we have had some tantrums, but I have invented this little game I play with her as we drive home. I tell her to look out the window and find the doggie...or I ask her, "Brynnie, do you see that kitty cat out your window?" and she always says, "yeah...mommy out window: kitty cat...meow" We go through all the animals and she'll say, "mommy...out window" and then I'll ask her..."What do you see, Brynn?" And she'll say "horsie...neigh" or "Sheep...baa" or "Duckie...on the water...quack quack" it's so cute and I am soooo thankful this little make-believe game has been working. I need to try and get it on tape somehow b/c it's quite funny all of the animals she comes up with that she "sees" outside on our way home. Sometimes we do actually see some of these animals, like doggies and horses..and the occasional duckie. :) I am waiting for the day she sees Elmo out the window. LOL

Great job on potty progress! She'll have it down in no time! I'm sure once you're out of school and have atleast a week to devote to it, she'll be done. Logan was our tough one, Quinn was a piece of cake. I'm hoping Miss Olive is like her big brother Quinn!
Great progress on getting rid of her mimi too! I'm thankful I haven't had to go through that. The boys gave theirs up around 6 months old. Olive doesn't use hers that often and I think because she's found her thumb and fingers, it's out it's way out already. Help me when she's a thumb sucker in 5th grade, would you?
I'm impressed on the potty training. They say girls are much easier so perhaps you've scored early with Brynn :)
On a side note, does your daycare let Brynn have her paci all the time? Our daycare doesn't allow the kids to have theirs outside their bed due to other kids picking it up, etc., so luckily Tyler is weaned from his except when he is tired (or we need to quiet him down for some reason, ie weddings when the babysitter falls through). Maybe you can trick daycare into doing the work for you and then you won't have to deal with the crying and screaming?
PS - I think pacis are great BTW. I'd like to totally break Tyler of his now but he likes it too much
Yay! Great news about the potty! She is a lil smarty pants! :)
Bryanna is so adorable and so incredibly smart! Just wait till you are training Baylen... Blake likes to try to "grab" the pee stream... hilarious and disgusting at the same time.
