Fluff

Makenzie has really taken a desire to potty train these past few days. She is really doing a great job. She is still wearing diapers but tells me when she wants to go. Makenzie has developed quite a routine while in the bathroom. It goes a little something like this...

Put the potty seat on the potty. (we have a brand new pink "Princess" potty seat - she loves it.)

Pull down her pants.

Asks me to lift her up.

Hands on knees (so we don't touch the potty).

Concentrate, really, really hard.

Pee pee (or go yellow as we like to call it).

Clap her hands.

Give me a high-five.

Wipe.

And then.....Fluff.

Yes, I said fluff. She loves to fluff the potty.

I love these special moments, even if they revolve around the potty.

Best Friends

Tonight the girls were playing dress up and putting on a recital for us in Caroline's room. They were so sweet dancing arounda nd 'round in circles in their pretty dresses. Roy and I loved watching them and can't believe how fast the two of them are growing up.

Every morning after the girls wake up, I ask each one if they had good sleep and if they had sweet dreams. This morning I asked Makenzie what she had sweet dreams about and she said..."Friends mommy". And I said, "Which friends'? And Makenzie said "Elizabeth". This just broke my heart because her friend Elizabeth just moved to Tennessee. They where in preschool and Moppets together. I hope that we can keep them in touch. Makenzie is only two years old but understands she has friends. It's so sweet.

So tonight Roy and I asked the girls who their friends were and Makenzie said that Caroline was her friend. So sweet!! We asked Caroline the same question and she said that Emma, Claire, Maggie and Rylie were her friends. We said, "What about Makenzie"? Caroline responded, "Makenzie can't be my friend, she lives with me".

Alrighty then.

Cutie Pie

I just can't resist this cute face.

Bedtime Story

How sweet is that sleeping baby? She isn't a baby anymore, so big at two years old. I love watching the girls sleep. They are so peaceful, innocent and without a care in the world. I could just kiss that face all day long. Oh ya, I do. :)
I laughed so hard when I went in to wake Kenzie up from her nap. I found her sound asleep with her book still on her lap. I guess she just couldn't keep her eyes open anymore.

Sweet dreams baby girl, I Love You!!

One More First

All of you will probably think I am nuts for sharing this small video, but we are so proud of Makenzie. She will be two-years old in three weeks and is already going to the potty. Yeah!!! I remember training Caroline and thinking she would be in diapers at her high school graduation. Of course, we are potty trained now. I had my doubts but I had to realize, this wasn't in my hands, it was in hers, just as I am realizing potty training is up to Makenzie. I truly think she wants to be just like her big sister. That's not so bad, is it? Anyways... Way to Go my little one.

Caroline, striking a pose on the new water slide.
My little firecracker, Makenzie!

Not sure about sparklers just yet. Too smokey she said.

Mom & daughter - what goof balls!!

Just in case you are wondering, this is Oreo cookie.
