Major Celebration Going On Here!

We are partying here at our house, we're passing around M&M's, Smarties and Taffy. You want to know why? Ella is finally POTTY TRAINED!!!!!!!! I never thought that we would get to this point but I have not changed a diaper in a week. After months of trying everything, getting so frustrated, Ella has decided that going potty is a good thing. She kept telling me "when I am three, I go when I am three." She was pretty close her 3rd birthday will be in March. We are sooooo EXCITED and Ella is really proud of her new undies!

I think this is a pretty accurate photo of Ella she can be a little devil. Just kidding! I did not fix her eyes because I thought that they went with the face!Some other things to celebrate: Nate has kept his room relatively clean for 3 days now. That's a record at our house. Here is hoping that he can keep it going.He made? his bed this morningNot bad just a pair of socks on the floor which he picked up and put in the laundry when I reminded him.

I don't know how long this all this good behavior is going to last but I am soaking it up.

Happy New Year

Ugh, the past two weeks have been so busy and crazy I barely have time to breath. Trying to keep up but not doing so well. Hope everyone had a good holiday and happy 2009. For me, so far it has been busy yet strangely uneventful. Oh I am having a daycare issue so if anybody knows of anybody, that knows of anybody who can recommend some(daycare) let me know. Please and Thank You.

Some Christmas

I was pretty lame with the camera on Christmas so there is not too much going on here. Usually we spend Christmas morning/day with Tim's fam. This year we stayed at our house and had a nice relaxing time so relaxing that we had to drag Ella out of bed. It was a little strange that my kids were not bouncing off the walls so excited about opening presents. They were pretty lame too! lol.

My brother and family

Tim helping Nate with his new Lego's.just never mind the Christmas mess of presents, wrapping, candy canes and drinks on the floor!!!(I just noticed that) Lucky nothing was spilt--so against the house rules.

Ella just dragged from bed. She is going to love this picture when she gets older.right now Ella loves exactly two thingsprincess's and the little mermaid!
