Potty Trained!

So a few weeks ago I decided to try Ivy Mae on the potty.
I thought she was far too young but every time anyone else went she demanded to go! This included taking a diaper off wherever we were and then trying to get it back on! so I thought I would give it 3 days, no pressure on her, if it worked it worked, if not oh well! I could NOT believe how fast she picked it up! The 1st day was about 50\50 accidents, making it there. The second day was she was making it 75% of the time and by day three she had maybe one accident!!!! Since then we have been diaper free! She has the occasional accident when no one is paying attention (in the shower or on the phone) but she has been a rockstar! She even poops on the potty which was the biggest challenge with Hads (and most kids).
Our goal was that she could be potty trained by the time the baby came but never in a million years did we think she would be potty trained at 22 months!!!! She is such an eager little learner and wants to do anything her big sister does so I can't take any credit for this… She was easy!

On the flip side my amazing little sleeper has been a sleeping terror the last few nights!!! I think she is getting molars in, if not she is seriously possessed by something very scary!!!! Last night she screamed for almost 3 hours!!! I tried everything! She wouldn't let me rock her and hit, kicked, and thrashed around when I tried to hold and console her. I am hoping tonight is better because I can NOT take many more of those nights…
