Potty Time?

She absolutely loves her new Potty! She was having a little trouble going at daycare, but her babysitter seemed to think that the potty would help her go. It does and now she goes on the potty for #2. Now if we could get #1 in the potty, we could say goodbye to those diapers! But, we are in no rush.....she will get it on her own time. She just loved that potty and didn't want to get up after the picture was taken. It is a stepping stool, a potty & a training potty for the toilet. It always sings when she does her business. I think she will be ready by the summer, but WE ARE IN NO RUSH!

The grocery list was originally written by her dad. She decided to help b/c she loves to be a helper. When she was finished she proudly gave it to me and said, "I write it, Mommy". I love this baby!!! She is so smart!

Happy Anniversary!!!

Using chopsticks! She is doing pretty good for her first time!


This is the great Sushi spread we had! Mmmmm!


The two biggest loves of my life! Yes, she is shoeless. Sometimes she does whatever she wants!


This is her plate. She didn't eat any of the Sushi. I don't think she is old enough for that! She enjoyed her Chicken Teriyaki and rice. She really enjoyed the shrimp tempura. =)

I can't think of a better way to have spent this special day. I found a sushi gift card that my husband gave me last year. It expires tomorrow! Glad I found it just in time!!

Happy Halloween!

Enjoying her daycare snack. Yummy pretzels and white chocolate!


Her little Halloween Critter from Daycare. We have the best babysitter ever!


Daddy is a Texans Fan! I think that sums it all up! I found this at the JBF sale for $1.75! It had never been worn!


My talented husband! Like I said...he loves the Texans!


And she decorated it all by herself!

Weekend in a glance!

We had a really great weekend. I got to spend a lot of quality time w/Ladybug & my husband was super excited about football season. They watched 1 game together, before she got restless and needed her afternoon nap.


Some how she knows what to use this thing for. Making sure Bear can breathe before he goes to bed.



This is an awesome shirt I got from www.union28.net I used a coupon that I got from one of my new favorite blogs, www.wearethatfamily.com The t-shirt website has a lot of interesting material for married couples. Check out the 30 day challenge! www.reviveourhearts.com




I took on the challenge of trying to put twisties in Ladybug's hair. I used a product called, Kinky Curly. Needless to say I am not a fan of the product or the price. I did however think I did a good job on my first try with the twists.




Daddy daugther time! Ladybug really likes scratching on the table!

Doctors

Ladybug had a doctor's appointment on Monday to look at a lump on her leg. It is pretty big & has been there for about 3 wks. We went to the doctor 2 wks ago & the doctor on call did not seem concerned. She said to keep an eye on it & come back if it changed. Well, 2 wks later it is still there. Her pedi was in town this time & was able to look at it. He was concerned about what it was & why it showed up 3 wks after her immunizations. Initially it was thought to be a knot from the shots. Well, we went for a sonogram on Tuesday morning & then to meet w/the surgeon on Tuesday afternoon. Ladybug did really well during the sonogram. She was not scared & stayed still until the tech finished. Well, once we went to the surgeon, she said she would call on Thursday after she had viewed the sonogram footage, to tell us what steps would be taken next. She called yesterday & praise God!!! It was full of fluid. The size concerned her a little, but she thinks it will be absorbed back into the thigh. She wants us to call in 2 wks & say if it has gone down or not. We will go back in & discuss draining the knot, depending on how it looks & what the surgeon thinks. She was really nice & sat & held Ladybug for the majority of the visit. Ladybug even grabbed a piece of paper & "read" to her. She is such a wonderful baby!

Wordless Wednesday (READING)

Pinterest!

This is my first Pinterest project. I have started to love the site & the app on my iPhone. It is definitely something I like to do for fun! Well, this is a tracing of my hand, ladybug's hand & my husband's hand. I messed up on his fingers & I am debating on if I want to redo his hands. I will post another picture once it is framed.
