School Days

Our Little One Is Growing FAST!

Hard to believe so much has happened in such a short time and even more in just the last month...no more pacifier, drinks from regular cups, feeds herself with a spoon and fork, pooped in the potty (woo-hoo!), talking like crazy and more...how does this happen??! Here she is this morning (Thursday - Aug 13th, 2009) on her way to school eating a pancake on the go! She didn't seem to mind all that much. She's far more of a morning person than mommy will ever be! That's a gene courtesy of daddy for sure!

GOTTA LOVE THE LUNCH BOX!!

DADDY KISSES...

Saying "pretty" and not "cheese" since pretty leaves a better, longer lasting smile for mommy to take a pic!

Washer & Dryer Get a Facelift!

So, we have the old fashiony type washer and dryer while most of America nowadays has the fancy shmancy stainless steel type that saves energy and the world almost. Anyway, so while ours still function fine, they needed a little pizazz...we found these great alphabet magnets and so Abigail has taking a liking to the 'laundry room' and hopefully she'll stay just as happy hanging around there and doing a few loads of wash for us in her teens! Ha!

Poddy Time!

No, Not Party Time; You Read the Title Right...PODDY TIME!

08-01-09: So, the only reason we even brought this into our lives now is because she started telling us when she tinkles or poos and points to her diaper. That's supposedly step one! Ha! Anyway, now that we got this poddy, we told her that's where the tinkle and the poo go so she enjoys telling us when she's doing that and then proceeds to go to the poddy and just sit there. We're holding off on pull-ups and such for now ...

She looks like she's saying here, "privacy please!"

Candid Moment

Exploring this new "toy" of sorts!

Proudly positioning the 'cup' into the base!

Red is her favorite color we think, hence the selection of poddy chairs.

And, we're all enjoying the book, "My Very Own Poddy!" ~for girls (complete with stickers -wow!)

No worries...this is the extent of the "Poddy Time" blogging. No "other" photos will be displayed regarding the future progression (if you know what I mean) no matter how much I love taking pictures...not of that! :)

Miss Independent

Meeee!

As you may have read in a previous blog, we are going through a lot of changes right now in the Wolf Den. Abigail is transitioning to the Toddler Room at school and she is learning to feed herself with a spoon (lots of changing of clothes there) and learning to drink from a regular cup, etc., etc. So we have put all things things into practice at home...our oh so messy, but fun home. She will very clearly say, "Me!" when she wants to do it, which is ALL of the time. Here she is with a mini buffet of sorts. Big mistake pulling out the yogurt, or was it?! :)

All gone!
