santa took the binkies; new years took the diapers!

i've got so much to add i'm going to make some attempts at doing it gradually. the binkies were probably more difficult than the diapers. she gave them almost willingly but struggled with her generousity for the following weeks. she asked craig to get them back from santa because she didn't care about the little children anymore and she REALLY missed her binkies. it was a little sad. she's recovered now.

on the other hand, we flipped the switch with the diapers. she's been very proud. funny kid. the thing that finally motivated her to make it was our neighbor kathy. kathy told her if she stayed dry, they would go for icecream. surprisingly it worked! after week 1, they went for chik filet and had a ball.... kathy says they'll go again... kaetlyn did not have a single accident at school or home all week. pull ups are pretty much dry in the mornings too! by george, i think she's' got it. :) this change has diminished her ability to nap somehow... not quite sure of the correlation at this point.
