Goodbye and Hello!

Ty has said goodbye to two major things in his life these past few weeks.
#1. The crib. Ty is no longer my baby in his crib anymore (wiping the tears away)! He has been sleeping in a twin bed for about a month now. I was so worried about how he would do. When we moved the crib out of his room he cried for about an hour, on and off, and kept climbing into his crib. After that, he was okay with it. He has been sleeping wonderfully in his new "big boy" bed.

#2. The binkie, or what Ty calls it, his "B". We snipped the end off it and the next time he asked for it he took it out of his mouth and said, "It's broken". I said, "Oh no, we can't fix it, we better put it in the garbage." Ty walked over to the garbage and threw it away and went on with his day. That was it!! Seriously, I was expecting tantrums, crying, hitting, screaming.....you get the idea. He has asked for it a couple of times since, but I just tell him it was broken and we threw it away and he is fine with that. I think we were the ones that were more attached to it then Ty. Funny how that works!

Now, HELLO! to this.
Yep, we got him his own little froggy toilet. Don't get too excited, we aren't potty training yet. I started putting Ty on the big toilet right before he gets in the tub because I hate it when we pees in the tub water. He pees just great in the big toilet so I thought I would get him his own. He loves it and every night before bath he goes pee all by himself. When he is done he even dumps it in the big toilet and flushes it like a big boy all by himself. Then he jumps in the tub! I figure this is a good start for when we are ready to potty train him.

How exciting! It's funny because Jace is doing some of the same things in the last few months. Too bad they couldn't be hanging out together too! Congrats though! Sounds like things are going great!

so funny how he was so okay with his binky "breaking". I know you were worried about it.

Are you watching Bachelor? I miss chatting with you about it.

Good times! That's an awesome potty seat--if my kids saw that they would love to use it even now.
