serious updates

Made some major updates to the Shutterfly link on the right. See it? It's over there under pictures. Or just click HERE. Tons of pictures added that don't make it to the blog. Even some video.

More importantly, we are now pull-up free in our house! Addison came home last week and decided she didn't need to wear one to bed anymore. It's been 8 nights now and not one accident. I'm so proud of her. She's pretty proud of herself too.

We've also implemented a marble reward system for Addison over the last couple of weeks. It started as a way for us to get through the nighttime routine with no arguments. If she does not wake us up at night she gets another marble. Lately she's been dressing herself in the mornings, which saves us all time, so she gets a marble. We also add random good deeds which hopefully only reinforces the nighttime stuff, which was the major issue. I took her to the dollar store and let her pick our what prizes she wanted. Get 10 marbles and you get to pick a prize from the basket. She gets so excited to count the marbles and see how close she is getting. She's gotten two prizes so far and it seems to be working. Except for last night when I was up 3 times. No marble this morning.

Just some random pictures to end the post. Morgan looking cute in Minnie ears from Aunt Shannon.

The girls having a Publix picnic in the playroom. Have you had the kid's meals they sell in the deli section? Awesome. I *heart* Publix.
