Happy Birthday Baby.... Lovie turns 3!

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

What a big day for the little gal! Little Lovie turned three (going on 16)... She's had a very big couple of weeks reaching some very important milestones. She talks on the phone like she's a tween. She's now got a big girl bed and has mastered the art of the big potty. Her signature locks are still yet to be trimmed.

Her love of Rachel Rae and all things cooking continues and secured some awesome wooden cooking toys so she can pretend to cut, chop, and dice to her heart's content. Here's hoping that her love of food sustains, my personal chef in the making!

It's amazing how fast time moves...the kiddies are certainly growing up!

My Life is like The Flight of the Bumblebee!




Ok... We are pottytraining.... 'nuff said really. Any parent with children over the age of three knows the misery. Little Lovie gal will be turing three in a couple weeks. Baby G is here and the kids are in school. The world is finally more ordered and moving more slowly.

So what's a parent to do?

Instill chaos!....and so potty training has become our newest challenge.

It goes a little something like this....

I Wake up

Lovie wakes up

Run to the Potty

Fix breakfast

Run to the Potty

Shower

Run to the Potty

Snack and a show

Run to the Potty

Nap

Run to the Potty

Lunch

Run to the Potty......


I think you get the picture.... We're getting it done... We're baby-stepping... If I live through this I'll smell the roses... until then... It smells nothing like roses; actually it smells a lot more like pee most of the time.
