They're gone.

Today we ran out of pull-ups for Cate and collectively decided that she has exceeded her diaper quota and we will not be buying anymore. We are done.

So far, there has not been any accidents, but we have also been forcing her to sit on the potty every hour or so. It feels like we've been through this before...

I've also decided that I'm not doing a song and dance about it. There will be no jelly bean, no timbit, no sticker or goldfish cracker as a reward. Normal people use a toilet and now she will too.

It's time to grow up little girl. Mommy's done.



P.S. I really hope that I am not spending the next week cleaning up after her.



P.P.S. Wish me luck.



P.P.P.S. Wish me patience too.

Have you taken a photo today?

In honour of World Photography Day, I trucked my camera equipment and the kids out to a little private park just down the road. I dressed them both up for the occasion. I actually bought Cate's dress a few months ago with the intention of doing a little photo shoot just like this...

Here are a few of the gems that resulted from 20 minutes of goofing off with the girls.

I really should do this more often.
