I think we did it!!!

Very proud in her big girl undies and a sucker for going on the potty!



Addison is officially potty trained!!! It took less than a week. For the past two days, she has been telling us when she has to go and has used many different bathrooms in a lot of different places!!! When it is time for her to flush, she likes to lift the lid and say that it is a "Naked toilet"

New story. I downloaded a bunch of princess songs from Disney movies to listen to in the car. Addison has her own names for a lot of those songs.

Princess and the Frog: "Ray's song" and "Louis's song"

Cinderella: "prince song" and "mouse song"

Tangled: "Pascal's song" and "bad guy song"

Most of the time, we listen to one song over and over but every once in awhile, she lets us move on.

OK, on to me. It has been awhile since I posted about the pregnancy.

How far along: 24 weeks 3 days
Total weight gain: 15 pounds
Maternity clothes: yes
Sleep: It is ok. I find that I am more comfortable on the couch, I think because I have something against my back.
Movement: yes, alot in the morning and evenings
Food cravings: Root beer floats!
Gender: Hopefully, we find out tomorrow!!! Let's hope baby has spread out a bit and is not in a ball anymore
Labor signs:NO
What I miss: a nice cold beer while camping!
What I am looking forward to: finding out what baby is tomorrow!

The potty training adventure has begun!

Yesterday when I got home, we started our potty training adventure. 2 succcess and 2 accidents in 2 1/2 hours.

Day 2 (first full day of potty training)- HUGE SUCCESS!!! No accidents for my big girl!! Way to go Addison!

Now for some...

Addisonisms and Addison updates

My Little Princess

"Addisonisms"

• Never, never never. Not really sure where she heard that but she says it when playing with her princesses all the time.
  


• She loves to put things to bed (animals, princesses, etc). She also likes to pretend to change their diapers.
  


• She calls hamburgers "hamgeburgers"
  


• She was very into Auntie Jo's wedding last weekend. Auntie Jo was the bride and Uncle Cory was the prince. He is the only prince as well. Daddy isn't a prince, Carter isn't a prince, and Uncle Matt isn't a prince.
  


• She took one look at my mom last weekend in her black dress for Joanna's wedding and said "Grandma is a black bride!"



• After her bath she always says "Addison carry you" when she wants you to carry her to her room.



• She always picks a pink, green, and yellow paci to take to bed. I am going to work on the potty thing first before fighting the paci fight.



• She calls Ryan's dad "Papa Bombine" (Combine)



• She loves the movie Princess and the Frog. Her favorite character is Ray (the firefly). She loves his song and can be heard singing the words "goin' down the bayou" while riding in the car.


• Calls Pocahantas "Hocamanus"



• When putting Addison to bed, I love hearing the words "love you too, mom!"
