PeePee in the Potty

Yes! Madee actually went. It was after naptime and I had to keep her sufficiently occupied so she wouldn't jump off like she usually does, but after a few minutes of "brushing her hair" she finally went. And went she did, I didnt't think she was going to stop. I got so excited and she had no idea why, but liked the idea of Mommy clapping and cheering just for her. Isabelle got in on the action too, "Good job Sister! We are all so proud of you!" It's a long way from our last box of diapers, but I see an end in sight.

First night in a big girl bed

We have been trying all week to get Madee sleep in her Princess Big Girl Bed. She and Isabelle now share a room to sleep in while the other room is the play room. Since she can now open bedroom doors, she would just get out of bed and come into the living room. She has been sleeping in the pack -n-play since the crib is gone. Two days ago she took a nap in her bed, but last night she slept the entire night in her bed. Of course, after she had fallen asleep in the pack-n-play and was moved to the bed. Beggars can't be choosers right?

A small scare

The babysitter called me today while I was at work to tell me that Isabelle had fallen, wouldn't stop crying and she thought her nose might be broken. I got another call shortly after telling me Isabelle was doing better. When I went to pick her up I was a little shocked at the sight. She is pretty bruised up. Bree, Isabelle's friend, told me that "The park kicked her (Isabelle's) butt." So true! I guess I am not going to get their pictures taken next week after all.

Fall is in the air

On our way home from Grammies the other night we decided to ride home with the windows open and enjoy the nice weather. As usual, the girls gave us some memorable moments!

This is why we live here!

The weather today is GREAT. At noon, it was still only 81 degrees. It is a little overcast, but finally feels like fall.
As of right now, Isabelle has decided she is going to be Snow White for Halloween. Of course, she did want to be Princess Fiona until we couldn't find a costume in her size (that was a fun trip.) I am thinking Madee will be a ladybug. I will post pictures of the two as soon as we can get them in the costumes.
Just a few short weeks until Fall Break and then I get to spend an entire week with my girls!
