Such a Big Girl!

Yet another time of transitions at the Braman House...our Georgia Claire is officially POTTY TRAINED! Can I get a "hallelujah"?! After trying and stressing myself out & her out I decided to put away the M&M's, the big girl panties, and the sticker chart. She simply wasn't ready. Her OT reminded me (yet again) that although chronologically she was 3 she is somewhat delayed in her gross motor skills. Her SPD throws another kink in the plans, too. The sensation of having to go to the potty was something that she had to figure out, on her own, in her own time. So, as much as I wanted to only have one little girl in diapers, we had two, for the time being. It really made our days so much happier not worrying about it! That was about 2 months ago (right before her 3rd birthday). Fast forward to a little over 2 weeks ago...we had just arrived at Granby & Mimi's house when she announced, "I need to go potty!" So, I took her and SHE WAS RIGHT! That weekend she just took off! She even wanted Mimi to make her a sticker chart for their house! Since then she has had MAYBE 5 accidents! No pull-ups or diapers anymore...even when we go on a trip, to the store, or to bed! This child never ceases to AMAZE me! When she's ready to do something, SHE'S READY! 

When we got home we got out the sticker chart, panties, & M&M's. Here she is pointing to her stickers...

And here she is about a week later...SO PROUD OF ALL OF HER STICKERS!

The first time she went poo poo on the potty we HAD to make a trip to Target to get a special treat! She chose the baby with panties & a potty! She was SO EXCITED! (When we bought the doll we didn't realize how much hair the doll had...WHOA! Look at all that hair...it's CRAZY!)

Her attire most days?! Panties and a t-shirt! She LOVES it and I could care less when we are at home! Shelby & I keep telling her over and over how we are so very proud of her and her little face just GLOWS! I love this BIG GIRL of mine...
