When brother turned two we began to pray for God's will for our family.
We wanted another child.
Oh how sweet it was to be patient and wait for His timing.
Lil sis has brought so much joy to our family.
Five is the perfect number for us!
As the new year begins, so does a new season for our family.
Lil sis no longer wears diapers. This process took a few days to click but she's a pro now!
She mostly uses her "tiny toilet" which big sis and brother never used. However, when out she'll go where we are at that moment...knowing momma has a tiny toilet in the car gives her security!!
Then a few days into the potty training brother mentioned to her that the front could come off of her crib...she has asked almost daily for it to come off. So she and daddy got out the tools and here is her big girl bed. It is interesting how each child has changed seasons at different paces.
Big sis went to this same bed at 19 months, no paci at 2 years & 2 months, and potty trained 3 weeks before 2 1/2
Brother went to a toddler style bed at 21 months, potty trained 2 weeks before 2 1/2 and kept the paci until 35 months!!
Lil sis has done potty training and big girl bed together roughly 2 weeks before turning 2 1/2 and will keep the paci until....TBA!!!!! Might be 5 at this rate :)!!!
Above is her "I NOT" pose.
Here is her sleeping pose.
Here is her face when she realized she got to show big sis and brother how she could get in her bed...
and out...which is where the possible problems begin!!!
(yep, that's a rattle in her hand! She found it when daddy went looking for her side rail!)
Big sis pondering how she ever really fit in there!
Me too sweet girl, me too!
So as the seasons change my heart grows thankful.
I try not to harp on what is gone but what is ahead.
This is difficult when the changes are so big!!!
