Blessed.

I love this time of year.

We are making all our final plans for the Thanksgiving holiday.

It is so beautiful outside with all the pretty, colorful leaves clinging to their last days.

We have so much to be thankful for.

Every night before I fall asleep I go over my list of all my blessings.
That list is so long!
And I know I am always missing so many things.
We are very lucky.
Could they be more adorable?
Love these crazy girls.
They crack me up.
Bubbles!
Helping mommy cook.
With her prince.
All over the place.
I am really enjoying cooking right now, focusing on hot, hearty soups & stews.

Tis that time of year.  

This is one of my new favorites right now, Carrot Ginger Soup. This recipe is divine, you should make it right now! 
I love food photography, clearly I'm not the only one.  : )
This time of year always goes by so quickly.
I'm just really trying to slow it down and 
soak in life right now.

I love my beautiful children.

I have the best, most hard working, wonderful, handsome husband I could ask for.
We have amazing extended family that bring so much joy to us.

Life is good.

I saw this on Facebook today:

 I couldn't agree more.

Thankfulness = Happiness

And really?  

That sounds much better then the whole Puke = Love thing!

Adventures in Potty Training...

I began potty training Ava right around the time she turned one. I broke out the potty and began encouraging away. She faked interest in the beginning but soon it became apparent that the child was a little hopeless, to say the least. Throughout the year that followed I realized that this strong willed child would need a little more time, as well as mom backing the heck off. Before she turned two I came across a blog a mom was writing who made a bold statement of parents simply being lazy if they aren't potty training their kids very quickly. I was so mad about when I read that but also felt like maybe she was right all at the same time. It motivated me to simply take away Ava's diapers and sort of force her into being ready. I spent the entire day encouraging her as she had accident after accident. She managed to pee in her potty about 4 times and everywhere else about 347 times. I was so stressed out, so was she. At one point she peed on the floor and looked up at me
