We had a nice party for Rebecca yesterday. She enjoyed having everyone there. We played pin the nose on Elmo :) Brooklyn went first, didn't get spun, and got it right on the money. Samantha, same thing. Cousins Dade and Matia got spun, Dade cheated a
little and got it in the right spot. Matia's was wanted to put it off the paper :) but with some encouragement got in on the paper, but off of Elmo. SO CUTE! Rebecca didn't want to wear the blind fold and just wanted to put his nose on, so that's what she did.
Rebecca had a lot of fun opening her presents. She gave Matia the stare down when she tired to help. She took her time and enjoyed every minute of it. She got a Winnie-the-Pooh who has now replaced her old one. He's way softer. She took him to bed and when I found her in the morning* she was cuddling the new Winnie and the old one was off by himself. So thanks Auntie Shannon! She loves it! She's very happy with all of her presents.
*Side note - Every time I get her up from her nap, or in the morning, Rebecca has her diaper off and has peed on the floor. She was doing it for a while, and then stopped, and now she's doing it ALL THE TIME again! What can I do? She's interested in going potty and has gone twice, so I'm going to start potty training her. But how do I stop her from taking her diaper off? There are a couple of heavy sleepers she has that she can't get off, but it's much too hot for that. Every thing else she gets out of. Advice, anyone??

I didn't know your kids were cousins! Are you and Erin sisters-in-law? Sounds like a very fun party : )
Yes! Erin's husband is my brother!
Hey Deanna,
Maybe a run to Superstore for some light weight zip up jammies. Then sew a hook & eye at the top of the zipper inside. I've read that that is effective in keeping jammies on. I've also heard of putting zip up/button up jammies on backward.
Maybe a potty beside the bed would encourage her to pee in there instead of on the floor.
I've also heard of a mom who hockey tapes the diaper on! I'm not judging! Desparate times call for desparate measures (in her case her son smear poo everywhere, thus the hockey tape!)
