Queen of the Throne

I never dreamed I would be writing this post so soon. Never ever. Never ever ever. And I have even waited long enough to make sure it was for real as to not jinx the situation. Drum roll please........ Avery is potty trained!

After such a long, drawn out ordeal with Will, Avery pretty much trained herself in less than 2 weeks. Just goes to show that each child is different. Of course I think having an awesome big brother as a role model helped the situation too. He has been quite the cheerleader and the chief jelly bean dispenser (her treat for when she goes).

We took her to Target this weekend and let her pick out her "potty surprise" as a reward for giving us the "diaper raise."  She picked out the dog-loving Barbie. Fitting to the situation, when you give one of the little puppies water, it immediately "goes potty." Lovely. At least it is just water and it is small!!!


Way to go, Avery!!! We are all sooooo very proud of you!

On a funny note, she says that Barbie is wearing "apple bottom jeans".  Aunt J, I know you love that!!
