this morning as i got boo ready for “school”, i noticed that her diaper was dry. instantly we headed into the bathroom, because she’s started trying to go on the potty. and today she totally did it. it wasn’t the first time, but i said “hey let’s try” and she was all “yeah dude” and she sat down and totally peed on the potty. she was super proud of herself too.

and there was this really weird combination of events that made me pause. she was sitting there and i could hear her “tinkling” on the potty and the expression on her face was priceless. she was so aware of what was happening and that i was really happy she was doing it and she was happy she was doing it, but she was listening too. it was weird. a few high fives later and a piece of candy and she was ready for the next thing, but it’s stuck with me today.

also, she’s transitioning into the preschool room. she’s leaving the toddlers behind and movin on up. i’m really proud of this, because it’s 6 weeks ahead of when it’s supposed to be, but it makes me really proud too. she is the direct result of the love hubbin and i have for her and the world and she’s amazing. this seems to be making itself clear in the outside world. people are drawn to her, they love her. and she’s so far ahead of the ball with development and speech that sometimes i lay awake at night because we’re screwed! she’s going to be smarter than us, than me. i hope i don’t disappoint her.

and in other big girl news, i reached a point of pregnancy no return. i dropped something today on myself and it didn’t hit the floor. it made it past my boobs, which is good, but then in came to rest on the top of my belly.

le sign.
