Wordful/Wordless Wednesday - Big Changes
There are some big changes happening around our house. See this little Princess?She's potty trained - for the most part. She is still having trouble when we go to someone's house - but she is saying all the time - I gotta go - and she is!
Let that sink in for a minute.
My last child is through with diapers. I never really thought this day would come. Seriously - at one point in time I had 1 in pull-ups, 1 in diapers and a newborn.
To celebrate our big girlness - and because Miss Maddy was getting a little to big for her toddler bed - She now has a big girl bed. I wish that I had had the time to get some tulle for her canopy this week - but since Walmart's fabric dept went kaput...I will have to wait until I can get out of town to get some - there's no where else here.
She LOVES her bed. She takes everyone to see it all the time. She is also sleeping like a champ in it.
I made another cake this week. I couldn't believe the difference in this purse cake and the ones that I've made before. I honestly think it turned out better since I got a smaller spatula. One the size of my hand. I almost think that I feel comfortable enough to say that I am going to make all 4 kids cakes this year. They are all excited but it might just be the sugar overload. I did throw half of this one out after sharing it with in-laws and cousins.
Look at this colorful and yummy looking snack I sent for E's preschool...I used to send things like fruit gummies or rice krispies - while this was a bit more work - I loved seeing the bowls come home empty. When asked E said everyone except one kid loved it! YAHH!
Oh yeah - and since getting my glasses for review. I can see again - try to ignore the hair - I got a hair cut this week so that I don't have to wear it like this anymore. It's hard to see - but the front is actually hot pink.
What do you have going on this week?

Cute glasses!! I should really get a new pair!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great cake too! I don't have the patience for cake decorating - did both my boys 1st birthdays and vowed I wouldn't do another. LOL
Congrats on the potty training! I think my baby is going to be potty trained before my preschooler ;)
ReplyDeleteAnd that cake is gorgeous!
Great pics! I am so jealous about the potty training! Evan is NOT cooperating. He has stopped going to the potty anywhere but his diaper. Oh well....one day!
ReplyDeleteLove the cake and congrats on a diaper free home!
ReplyDeleteLove the glasses!!! You just reminded me that I should really get new frames.
ReplyDeleteOh - and CONGRATS on the potty training! Isn't it the best when you no longer have to change diapers!
Happy WW to you!

Thanks for stopping by for WW and for the WW link-up. You are a gem! :-)
Big week for your family!! Love the bed (what little girl wouldn't?), love the cake (very impressive. I can barely frost a sheet cake), love the glasses (wish I could see the hot pink hair)!
ReplyDeleteGreat photos ... Your daughter is adorable

It was such a huge relief (no pun intended) when all my chickadees were finally potty trained. I wanted to go out and celebrate.
ReplyDeleteLove the glasses. I bought a very similar pair and I don't even need glasses! LOL
Congrats! We did a big potty training marathon this weekend and my Lily is in big girl panties now! I'm so proud of her. It went better than I thought. She's still in her crib and I asked her this morning if she wanted a big girl bed and she said she wanted her crib. She's almost 2.5 so maybe I'll let her have her crib for a little while longer :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Wednesday!
Congratulations to your big girl! I still have one more to get out of diapers, but he is only 8 mos so it might be a while for me. Have a wonderful Wednesday!
ReplyDeleteYAY!!!! WOOT WOOT for the big girl!!
ReplyDeletelove the glasses. =D
Fun glasses, and cute purse cake :))
ReplyDeleteDon't wait to buy tulle, till you get out of town. Visit www.fabric.com or www.TulleDirect.com. They both have the same tulle, that WalMart sold. Visit www.Tulle.net to see many uses of tulle, including, bed canopies.
