"Good job big girl!

Gotta love it when Ashley asks to go down for a nap.  She decided to go down about 2 hours early today - I was not complaining.  You want to take a nap...OKAY!!! 

We went to Barnes and Noble this afternoon and I have realized that she is not bookstore ready.  Clearly we won't be going to a library anytime soon.  She did have a pretty good time playing with the Thomas the Train track they had there and pulling lots of books off the shelf...I'm sure they absolutely loved having us there.  Oh well!

So we decided to put the potty training on hold because I don't think we are ready for that yet.  But Ashley felt the need to request the potty training DVD from Huggies not once, not twice but three times back to back today.  I guess she is just checking to make sure they are doing it correctly.  My guess is she is just waiting until she has everything down and then she is just going to get it over with in no time (might be wishful thinking but I can do that right?)  I know she is paying attention because like any other mother out there knows you never get to go to the bathroom by yourself after the child becomes mobile.  You could lock the door but then you have to hear them on the other side of the door having a melt down.  So I figure you just go for it, if you hurry maybe you can get done before they get in there. 

So tonight I wasn't fast enough and she barged in on me and starts cheering for me, "Yeah Mommy!  Good job big girl!"  Then she proceeds to put her hand on her hip, stick her hip out and say "I wanna hear it" like I said to her the other day when she tried saying she was all done.  Seriously????
