We didn't forget, did you?

A few weeks back I posted a blog about the steps Riley was going to take to become a big girl. So here is an update on those steps:

Step 1: Riley has been sipping from a straw cup since the day it was introduced to her. Even better, Riley now also drinks from a cup, no sippy, no straw. We do give her a straw cup most of the day, but snack time and sometimes dinner she gets a big girl cup.

Step 2: Riley has adjusted well to sleeping in her big girl bed. She sleeps in it every night and naps in it during the day.

Step 3: We pretty much use underwear or pull-ups these days. And while Riley is still not the most consistent potty goer, she does a pretty good job most days!

Step 4: Getting rid of the pacifier. Well Riley promised that when she turns 2 she would give it up - but we have begun the weaning process and she seems to not have noticed!! She now only uses the pacifier for nap and bedtime.

Initially I thought 7 weeks was ambitious - but now I see that with a mere 3 weeks until Riley turns 2, nothing is impossible!!
