the babies.

It's no secret Reese loves babies. She has a tendency to turn things into babies and she cares for them and carries them around. It's all very sweet. But her most recent baby has me laughing... well, sort of.

Reese noticed what a big deal Joe and I made about Noah going on the potty so she has been wanting to sit on it more. I told her if she goes pee on the potty she can have panties (Dora and Rella panties). She was very excited. I took out the nine pair that she has and told her she could pick any one out to wear if she went pee. Well, that's where it started. Yes, the panties became babies. Since that afternoon she has carried all nine pair with her everywhere. She takes them to bed, walks around with them, cradles them and even takes them in the car. Joe is asking "what in the heck did you do to get her obsessed with these panties?!" I tried to explain it was a simple bribe to pee.

Not sure if we should laugh or not. We're hoping it's a phase. Either way, it makes for some good stuff in the baby book.
