Remember this sticker chart from the previous post… Here’s our update as of about 30 minutes ago! :) I’m very proud to say that after a VERY rough few days last week, my little Pinky has remembered how to use the bathroom in the TOILET! I think she was just punishing me just a little […]

Every New Year's Eve we hang out with my sister's in-laws (Alan's parents) and we ring in the new year at their house. We've gone there since I was pregnant with Preston.
