recognizing people in the photos
very excited about her big girl bed after seeing Julien's big boy bed. She still insisted that hers was a big boy bed too. Falls asleep in her bed (with me on her bedside) pretty easily, but there were a few times I found her sleeping on the floor (after rolled off her bed). Still wakes up at the middle of the night, and I just brought her to my bed (too tired to do otherwise).
On the potty training front: We started potty training about two months ago. She started peeing in the potty pretty quickly. First success after one week, since then she has been peeing in the potty quite well (I have to remember to remind her every hour or so). And her teachers told me that she demonstrated how to pee in the potty for other children! But lately she has been having accidents quite frequently, wet herself so bad during naptime that her teacher needs to change her outfit completely.
but no pooping in the potty so far, she is constipated because of potty training I suppose, and now she only poops in her sleep, which is very annoying as it wakes her up. I have been telling her for more than two weeks that if she pooped in the potty she would have a brand new Elmo (of course, Elmo is her favorite. Not my fault, she recognized Elmo and Dora very quickly after starting preschool). Last night I finally gave her the Elmo doll, and told her she could have Elmo only when she sleeped in her own bed or when she went to the potty. She stayed on her potty for quite a while last night, and stayed in her bed until 3:30 this morning. We will see if Elmo really helps!
