Tower of Toilet (Paper)

Our little creative genius is at again! She's found a new use for toilet paper...building blocks. Katie Claire was so proud of herself for building a tower taller than she is.

Potty Prize

Now that Katie Claire has cleared the last hurdle in the potty training marathon she finally earned the super big sucker from Mam Maw. It's been months since my mom gave it to her, I thought for sure she'd forgotten all about it. They really don't ever forget anything, do they?
Thankfully, she ate it, broke it and forgot all about by the time she got up from her nap that day. Which was also good since I had already thrown it out. What a mess!

Rub a dub dub...there's a sweet girl in the tub!

No more please!

We had taco soup for dinner tonight and as usual Katie Claire snubbed her nose at her meal as she does most evenings no matter what's on the menu. I told her if she just took one bite she could have a s'more for dessert. One bite, survivor style - you have to swallow it and let me see inside. Otherwise she will take a bite and begin making gagging noises to get out of it. If it comes back out, it doesn't count! Then I showed her what a s'more was made of and she agreed.

Deron meantime said he wanted "some more" and returned to the table with another bowl of soup. A puzzled look came over her face and she yelled to me in the kitchen "I don't want some more!, I don't want some more!" After we assured her that her s'more would have chocolate in it she settled down.

Also, today I overheard her telling happy meal barbie to close the door (to the Little People dollhouse) because she "had the air on". Too funny!

May she never need mascara

What a beautiful girl
