Doc McWhitney

Image
Whitney is very into her animals right now and being their doctor.  She happened to see the show Doc McStuffins recently and just wanted to be like her.  She has her critter clinic, her pad of paper and her pen with her at all times!!!  Its too cute really!!  Her newest thing is to use tape as bandaids.  All of her animals are covered in tape...perhaps we should take stock in Scotch tape now:) Even at the store she is checking in on the animals making sure they are okay! She even has cages for them with bowls of water and food!!

Potty Training

Potty Training take two! We started potting training in January and it was a bust, she wasn't ready and I honestly think I wasn't really either.  But recently I noticed her holding her pee longer, telling me when she was going to pee in her diaper, etc....  So when I saw there was a snow storm coming, I thought it would be the perfect time for us to hunker down in our house and try again. So on March 6th we began!!!   She was all for it!! I  bought apple juice boxes (a rare treat), made an incentive chart to get her going, had blankets and towels spread out all over; I wasn't messing around! She did amazingly well, was so proud, and really seemed to get the hang of it.  I set my alarm for every twenty minutes which seemed to work great.  No accidents for day one!!! We did have a couple accidents during days 2-4 but after that NOTHING.  She was a pro.  We hit days 5-10 with no accidents and she was going an hour in between. ...

Valentines day and more

To follow up with my previous blog these are older pictures (probably four or five weeks for some of them) but they needed to be added to our memory book! So :) : One COLD morning we needed to get out in the fresh air so we bundled up to play at the park.  This was the warmest spot, in the cave! We visited with Will and Adele one morning and had a fun snowball fight.  Who do you think cleaned all of that up!?!? After church we had dinner with Gammy, Papaw and Aunt K.  Whit had fun playing with them and showing off all of her toys.   We aren't usually in the car around rush hour time anymore so when we were heading to meet daddy for the XU game, she needed some sunglasses badly.  Daddy's were the only ones I could find but they worked well enough!!! Valentines Day!!!!  Hungry Hungry Hippo was one of her surprises and she loved playing the game.  Although I must say that it isn't made quite as well as it use...

Trooper

***Well I started this blog THREE weeks ago....but due to the craziness of sleeping less than three or four hours a night this was pushed way to the bottom of my list!!!  We are finally to the point (knock on wood) that she is waking up only one or two times a night.  Come on molars, come in already!!! My poor baby girl is getting her two year old molars.  Goodness I cant imagine what that must feel like :(.  She started on Monday being a little fussy and I couldn't quite understand why.  Then Tuesday she had a slight fever and I just happened to see little white specks poking out.  Three of the four have started coming through but none of them have really emerged all the way.  Poor thing is just miserable and I wish this could happen faster so we could just get it over with!!! During her "off" week with her teeth she was such a trooper and really just needed some major cuddle time! Monday we spent the day with Papaw and Au...
