So what do you do on a cold and dreary February day.....you have a tea party! First, you have to have a pretty dress...Jordyn calls this her Thumbelina dress (unless of course, she's watching Cinderella...then its her Cinderella dress). No need to take off the pajamas...just put the dress right over it! (and hair combing was optional)
Then you get inspired, watching Thumbelina, while Mommy gets out the tea set.
Invite some guests...Tinkerbell and Pinky Pie Pony (though Jordyn calls him stinky pie) are favorite teatime friends...
Set the table and pour the tea...
and presto...instant entertainment! She had lots fun dancing around, serving tea and eating crackers. Do you see any similarities between Jordyns hair and stinky pies? Notice, i strategically photographed the tea party so you cant see the toy disaster in the corner :)
All in all, a wonderful afternoon! And what were we celebrating? Big Girl Panties! Thats right...my daughter is finally potty trained, so you can all relax knowing there will be no more graphic poop photos on my blog! The big girl panties did the trick!
See, i have a theory...they make diapers sooooo SUPER absorbent nowadays, that it doesnt make a kid uncomfortable to pee in them all day long. Replace the comfortable diapers with big girl panties (which are cool, by the way), and its not so fun to pee
in your pants. Thats what did it for my little one, and she was trained almost overnight. She loves all her new colorful panties...little mermaid...strawberry shortcake...little pet shop animals! Who would want to soil those? :) So there ya have it...for any of you struggling to potty train...give big girl/big boy undies a try! Good Luck!
