Pull ups and lost teeth!

Today I tried using pull-ups with Liam. He's still wearing diapers (boo) even though he'll keep the diaper dry all day long and I just keep putting it back on. But he isn't interested in underpants or pooping on the potty yet. Anyway, he had his 3-year check up this week and the doctor suggested that pull ups might help with the potty training process. The package has three designs--a Monsters Univeristy one, Cars, and Buzz Lightyear. Liam had to inspect all of them. He said, "Not Mike Uh-zow-key." So Monsters was out. Then he examines the Buzz one. "It has to have Woody on it." So, no Buzz. That left Cars. Lightning McQueen on the front and Mater on the back. Perfect, right? Wrong. "I no want Mater on my hiney. Put it on backwards! Want Mater in front!!!" Well, you can't put it on backwards or it won't work! So, sheesh! Talk about complicating things!!



On another note, Bailey lost her first TWO teeth today! It was kind of funny because I didn't even know she had a loose tooth, let alone expect her to lose two in one day! This morning, at about 6:15, Bailey came into my room as I was getting dressed. She said, "Guess what, Mommy! Exciting news! I have a lose tooth!" So I said, "Wow! That's so exciting! Your first wiggly tooth!"



Well, not even 30 minutes later, she was eating breakfast and she said, "My tooth came out!" That was it. No drama, no yelling or crying, just a calm statement. We took this picture:



Then, when she got off the bus this afternoon, she was carrying a little baggie. She said, "Guess what? My other tooth came out at school!" So she lost both bottom teeth in one day! I think the tooth fairy might bring her a bonus tonight!!
