I'm Happy Momma!

I had to make myself laugh this morning because there was nothing else I could do.  Audrey peed her pants three times within three hours.  This has been happening a lot, whereas before this week it was every once and a while.  I think we're taking a few steps back.  After having a long conversation with her I didn't know what to do.  My brother recommended starting treats again.   So we did.  Then I had the thought that we should watch Daniel Tigers Neighborhood going potty episode (something we had watched before).  Afterward, she was running to the potty every few minutes telling me that she was doing it all by herself.   I think it's working!

Here she it sporting her first real set of piggy tails. I think she's beautiful.

Later in the day I was re payed by lots of hugs and laughs.  How could I ever stay mad for long.  I gave her these crackers that were in the shape of bunnies.  I don't know why she likes them.  I think they're gross.  I bought them to get us through our flight at Christmas and they are still in my pantry.  I thought it was funny because as she was eating them she picked one up and said, "the bunnies sad".  Then she put it in her mouth, bit off the head and said, " OH NO!".  Then she stuck the rest of it in her mouth and said, "All better". 

I love this stage.  I love that we have conversations.  I love that she's always telling me that she's happy (it makes me stop and think about what happiness really is and where it comes from).  I love that she makes me laugh all the time.  And despite my complaints about the peeing in hard to clean up places I do love that she keeps me on my toes. It's never boring.  I love being a Mom.
