1. Get rid of the Soother.
2. Get Zech in a big bed.
3. Get Zech potty trained.
I have succeeded in the first two, which actually happened quite fast and without any huge problems. The Soother I feared would be extremely difficult, but it happened rather coincidentally. John went to work a few months ago and took the diaper bag in the van with him. All of the soothers were in the bag and I was putting him down, frantically running around trying to find one, but couldn't. So we did our normal routine and then I said good-night to him. A couple of hours later I went in to check on him and he sat up and asked for his "num nums" and I just told him that I couldn't find it. No big deal, he went back to sleep and we went with the "lost" num nums ever since. ALthough at one time I had to tell him that we gave his num nums to his friend Rachel and he seemed ok with that.
The big bed happened over night too. He fell out of his crib and that was the end of that. We didn't even know he could climb over the rails of the crib. We don't actually have him in the "big bed" yet, we just took the rail off of his crib for now. 
Potty Training-----AHHHHHH! It's a nightmare. I have tried a few times and ended up going through all of his big boy underwear just in the morning. He won't walk around with no underwear and always asks for his diaper. So this is not going too well. I decided that I won't push it yet. He is getting a little better, he tells me he has to go pee pee after he already peed, so hey that's a start. I just want to get him potty trained before the fall so that I can enroll him in pre-school.

2 out of 3 is awesome! i wouldn't rush the potty training. if he isn't ready and you force it, you could be in for all sorts of problems. when he's ready, he'll do it.
helayna still isn't either.
