Potty-time!

Giana sat on her potty and PEED for the first time this morning when she woke up!

Her diapers have been dry when she wakes up from the night which shows that she can hold it at night. I decided to put her on the toilet by chance and after a few seconds we both heard the music go off on the toilet (the toilet has a censor to play music when pee hits it) and looked at each other like "what's that?!" Then I realized she was peeing! I screamed & clapped for her and she started to get all excited and jumped up..I was like "no, mama you have to sit b/c you're peeing!" LOL So she sat for a while cheesin' it, clapping with me. I went to kiss her and she grabbed my face and said "hug!". Omg, let me tell you how special that moment was to me!!!!!! :D

I then took pictures of her on the toilet to celebrate her accomplishment and got her dressed for school.


Before I dumped her pee, I got a pic of that too (dont worry, I wont post lol). Sounds gross but you have to capture all these moments, so I don't care. As long as I'm not bronzing her first poop like Tom Cruise & Katie Holmes did for their kids first poop ever, gross!

I can't tell you how proud I am today. I feel so good knowing that my daughter accomplished this milestone with flying colors. Now I can't wait for her to sleep in a big girl's bed!

Here she is after her milestone!

What's with the attitude?

Lately Giana's been miss snob. Annoying. I guess most people who know me are like, "hmm, where did THAT come from?" hahahahha. Not too funny though when she's saying no to everyone and stop it! Cute? No. I am trying to teach her to act right and respect others. While I feel in some areas, I'm successful, the important ones I don't feel she's learning. She IS only 22 months, so time will tell and as long as we continue to teach her that things are not right to do or say...she'll come around.

What frustrates us most is that she won't even give family hugs or kisses when we see them! I always tell ppl don't take it personally b/c she does to our parents too! I literally have no idea why she is so mean like that. My mom said I was like that when I was young too so maybe she got it from me?! I'm not rude when you first meet me now lol so hopefully it's just a phase. I definetely know I need to tone down my attitude all in all though. I don't want Giana growing up watching me get pissed and irritated at small things in life. It's not right & James has told me time and time again that I'm like that & he hates it. For instance, when Giana tries to put my flip flops on and she can't get her toes in the right way she screams & throws the slipper! OMG, I can get that way when something small doesn't go right either! Well, maybe not right but my way.

I need to make some changes with my attitude so it can rub off on her. I just do not like how mean she is when people just want to kiss & hug her. Ugh.
