She's a Big Girl now, but still too young for make-up!

So Brailee is just growing up way too fast! She is now potty trained (woohoo) and it's so nice to only have one in diapers! At nights she gets upset when I try to put a diaper on her, she says, "No! Big girl panties!" So we compromise and put the diaper on over her panties, which saves on diapers because we just use the same one every night. She has woken up dry every morning for the last 3 weeks, so it's probably not necessary to use the diaper, but I'm not willing to take the chance of that mess just yet! She is so cute when she comes to tell me when she has to go - she will either give me this sly little look and whisper it like it's a fun secret, or she'll announce it to the world ;-)

She also has stopped sucking her thumb - which totally shocks me! Whenever she was tired or bored, in would go the thumb! David started to wean her of that a couple weeks ago, which didn't thrill me, I thought it was too much pressure on such a little girl with the potty training and a new baby at home, but she just has the best personality and knew she wanted to be a big girl, so she did it! When we first started, we would just say something to her if we caught her with her thumb in her mouth. And then for a couple of days, we asked her if she wanted a bandaid on her thumb to help her remember, and she would happily say yes. It was just such a habit before, now she doesn't even think about it anymore, not even at naptime or bedtime. I'm so proud of her and I'm glad she has the right personality to have such a great attitude about everything!

Anyway, now onto the make-up. I was feeding Trysten the other day and usually she will sit and talk with me, but she was happily playing somewhere else. When I got done, I went to check on her and this is what I found ;-)

She had found her sister's lip gloss/make-up and gave herself a nice makeover. At least it matches her shirt ;-P
