...but not too positive about this- Natalie wore underwear rather than diapers to school today for the first time. The child has been so stubborn about potty training! I honestly think that she prefers the diapers, which is beyond my understanding. She tried it yesterday afternoon and went from 4:30 to 9:00 with no real accidents. Notice, I qualifed that "no accidents" with "real" because Meagan had to run her into the bathroom because Natalie was dangerously close to making a big mess. I will just leave that to your imaginations!
So Meagan has never shown an interest for baby dolls. That was left for Natalie, which is ironic because Meagan was the one who had a baby sister. A few weeks ago, however, Meagan began to ask Nati constantly for Baby Jenny. This would not fly with Nati, as Baby Jenny is her one true love. Meagan would bargain with her, offering her toys, food, whatever she thought Nati would like. It did not work and Meagan was very sad. Finally we gave in and took Meagan to Target, where she selected the baby doll above. We have no idea why she liked that one so much, but she does like her. Since she is a Cabbage Patch Kid, she has an offical birth certificate with the name "Esther Daphne." Andy insists on calling her Bubbles. Esther gets the good life around here- gets to sit in the doll high chair, gets wrapped in Meagan's old baby blankets, and wears little diapers. Nati thinks this is great since Meagan is not trying to get Baby Jenny.
Countdown to loss of my freedom (i.e. going back to work): 6 days.....
Happy Belated Anniversary to Grandma Sandi and Papa Bob, as well as Sandi's birthday!!!
