No more bottles

Well, I think I can safely say Kaitlyn in broken of her bottle habit. She will still ask for one every couple of days, but then I show her the empty cabinet and she's fine with it, she'll take a sippy cup. She did find one under her bed that had been there for awhile, but I told her to go throw it away and she took it to the kitchen sink. After looking at it, I threw it away!

Now, potty training time! She's been taking her diaper off and going and sitting on the potty. She's gone a few times, but I'm thinking of getting her Pull-Ups. Of course, I just bought a case of 175 diapers. I guess she can still use them at night time.

I'm not sure if it's the full moon or just siblings "loving" each other, but they have been fighting like cats and dogs lately. That mixed with both kids getting up in middle of the night, I've lost most of my patience. I'm trying to get it back, but it's really hard, especially since I'm sick too.

Kaitlyn's party

Kaitlyn had a WONDERFUL birthday party! Josh was so proud of her Minnie Mouse cake that he had to show it off as everyone came in. He wanted to eat the cut outs of Minnie Mouse and didn't want to share.

Kaitlyn got a lot of clothes and shoes!!!! She got an outfit that included a hat, so she had to wear that and then she put on a pair of shoes a size too big, but she HAD to wear them. Then she opened the present from her cousins and saw the Minnie Mouse sippy cup and that was it, the party could have ended. She grabbed that cup and had to have chocolate milk. She got a stuffed Minnie Mouse from her Aunt JenJen and she carried her around too. I would say it was a good birthday for her.

Her and Josh got to stay with Nana this past weekend while daddy and I went to a Sooners game with Justin and Grand dad. We had a great time, but I realize vacations without the kids won't be happening too much any more. I missed them like you wouldn't believe. We got Kaitlyn a cheerleaders dress and Josh a hooded jacket. They both loved their presents. We got Kaitlyn to say OU for the first time! It came out OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOU. So sweet!!!!

On a different note, I went and picked the kids up from school yesterday and Miss Amber told me Kaitlyn went pee pee on the potty yesterday!!!!! This was a first for her and I'm so proud of her. We keep working with her at home and I know she'll pick it up quickly.

My little babes are growing up!!!!

Love you both!

Happy Birthday Kaitlyn!

Yesterday Kaitlyn turned 2! What a day for my little girl. We started off the day by going to Wal-Mart and buying cupcakes to take to school. We got home and she wanted to eat one so bad. I ended up giving her cereal and told her we could have one that night after dinner.

Next she went to the doctor for her check up. She weighs 23 pounds and is 32.5 inches tall. This means she'll be about 5'5" when she becomes an adult. I guess my kids got the short gene. Darn!

The doctor fell in love with her. I had her hair up in piggy tails and her ladybug dress that Nana made for her. She was so adorable!!!

She made it through school and daddy picked her and brother up and came home. Daddy decided we needed to go out to eat to celebrate so we went to Chic-Filet. The kids ate a little and played then it was off for ice cream!

They each got a scoop and ate most of it and then it was off to Target to wear off some energy. We walked around looking at clothes, toys and bedding. Kaitlyn will be moving to the big girl bed next weekend! We're still trying to decide what theme her room should be.

It was a little after 8pm when we got home, but she wasn't ready for bed, so we let them watch the Backyardagins. After that it was bed time!

Josh sang Happy Birthday to his sister and helped open her presents. The cute thing was Kaitlyn was trying to sign along, but just couldn't get the words out. What a sweet heart!

I hope you had a wonderful day!

Mommy, Daddy, and Joshy all love you!
