Potty Trained!


OK I just noticed I never posted about her being potty trained...Natalie has been potty trained since June 9th...she only has had maybe 3-4 accidents....she doesn't even go in her panties at night....this is how it all happened...We had been reading all the potty books for weeks ...and so one night I was changing her diaper, and she ran off without her diaper....well Jubal likes to do reverse psychology on her to get her to do things and it does work.. so I decided to do it. So, I said to her don't you go pee pee in the potty..so she sat down and went pee pee in her potty...and that is the rest of the story... We think she was fooling us all this time?

Second Day Of School


This was Natalie's second day of school...she did great until I left...she cried for about 30 minutes...then quit...Everyday when I pick her up she says....mamma picked me up? I think maybe she is afraid that I won't come back for her...so now I tell her I will pick her up when school is over...about every day...she only goes to school on Tues. and Thurs...but this week she was much better..and is playing more with the kids and not as much crying.....

Goofing off!


We were just goofing off today..she found her daddy's dew rag (spelling?) and it was too cute...as you can see in some of the pictures..Natalie got her ears pierced...I had been asking her if she wanted to get them done,,,I told her it would hurt ..she would say no...then one day I asked her and she said yes..sooo I sent her upstairs to tell her daddy..we went and it was all great until the trigger was pulled..of course I forgot the camera....but she cried for about 1 minute and then they gave her a lollipop...everything was great after that...

First Day of Mother's Day Out!!




Natalie started school today...she was so excited to go...she had her purse(with her blanket inside) her lunch kit....she was ready to go...until mom and dad left her there by herself....her teachers said she cried for 30 minutes....and then was ok...until rest time...she did not want to lay on her mat...she cried for 20 minutes...so they decided to get her up...she did pretty good for the first time we have ever left her by herself....it was real quiet around the house...but it is amazing how much you can get done without a little one wanting your attention 24/7!!!! we will see how Thursday goes...we asked her if she was going back to school on Thursday..she said NO? But she did learn the song Row Row Row your boat..she has been singing all day....
