Big Girl Status

So much has happened over here lately.
Time has flown by and I haven't been able to get a post out until now.
Here are some pictures along with some amazing new accomplishments!!!

 
See this chick sippin on my water bottle?!
She loves it and claimed it as her own.
I caved.
Well I am stoked to announce that starting on September 9th she has been going potty in her Big Girl potty everyday! Now, I know early (early!) potty training isn't for everyone but it has been working great for us. It was a super easy transition too. We always had her bumbo in the bathroom, so she was used to sitting on something in there with us. She also used to do what I thought was "pretending" to push, like she was going potty too. ;)
Now, when she wakes up in the morning and after naps I place her straight on her potty and away she goes. Just like that. Magic.
I save so many diapers now. She is usually around 2 diapers a day now because most of her business goes in her potty.
I made her, her very own Potty Chart and everything.
She gets a sticker every time she goes that day.
Love her.

Next.



Katie was able to go to daddy's football game!
It was so hot outside and mommy forgot the sunscreen, so we opted for umbrellas instead.
Look at her holding on to it.
And did I mention that little curl?
So cute.


Side note.


Look how cute she is in her new bath robe!
I adore her.


Also, in the past few weeks my 22nd birthday has come and passed.
The day itself was normal and nothing extraordinary.

Me and my birthday buddy


That Friday we went for a lovely dinner to the Olive Garden to celebrate!
Yes. I LOVE the Olive Garden.
Their Chicken Marsala is mouth watering along with the Chocolate Moose cake.
It was a great birthday.

Here is the whole family.
Katie, Troy, Myself and Budee.

That's right, we have a Bunny
who is practically our son.
=)

That has been our last few weeks.
Oh wait!
How could a mom forget. Silly me.
Guys,
Katie has taken her first STEPS!!!
This is right before she started walking towards me =)
We caught the whole thing on video.
Such a proud moment.

Word.
I am one proud mama.
Now it's time to rest.
