This past week Agnes has decided that underwear is the way to go. I am thrilled, thrilled beyond belief! The boys were both 3 when I finally convinced them that diapers were uncool, but this daughter of mine is busy proving girl stereotypes to be true.
Agnes is also the first of my children to be completely motivated by candy, the "I'm Proud of you" song (sung LOUDLY) and thrives on cheering on and words of encouragement. Tiny underwear with cupcakes and crowns on them are very cute and David and I are both thrilled that Agnes has chosen to call them "undies" instead of panties. The word "panty" drives me crazy. Surprisingly the most confusion has been with David. He cannot figure out which is the front of the underwear and which is the back. Compared to boys' underwear it must be pretty confusing, but I am sure that we will all be able to muddle through it somehow.

oh heavens...agnes and theo need to hang out so she can teach him a thing or two!
I'm with Eliza- can you send Agnes for a visit to motivate Preston?
Very happy for you however!
that is so funny. how can you not tell where the front is though??!
Yeah for potty training! My mom still asks if I need to be sung the "I'm Proud of You" song. It's a family favorite!
that's great! Good job Agnes! I agree w/ the undies/panty thing!
That's funny - can't tell the front from the back - maybe you can put laundry marker tags for directions!!
Good job Agnes!!
Way to go, Agnes! Molly often prefers hers backwards, although she often complains that they give her a "veggie."
Kimberlyn gets hers on backwards all the time. Doesn't seem to bother her too much.
Yay Agnes!! That's so exciting! Isn't it great not having any in diapers anymore?!?!? :)
(and good job, mom! that's not an easy thing to do! )
I never say panties.
