Happy New Year!!

 2012 couldn't of been much better.

We ended it at the mountain surrounded
by our wonderful family. 
 Part of our group : )
 That's some deep snow!

 Ava LOVES eating snow.

 Norah looks so tiny against the house : )
 Icicles are my favorite.
 She didn't love how cold it was.  She kept
insisting we go back in.  Right after she 
insisted I take her out there again : )
 Such perfect weather!  I love the blue sky & 
the white snow against the trees.

 Lots of sledding happened.
 The town looks amazing this time of year.
 More icicles : )
 Tiffani
 My girlies riding up to the store.
 I love this one.


 So blessed to have Bayli join us.

 Night sledding.

 The moon.
 Sock hands!
 These little cousins play so well together!!
 So much wonderful food.
 They are adorable together.
 Love.
 Laughing
 What?

 All the kids.
 These two play great together too!

 Norah figured out how to build Lego towers!
She kept making them so tall Bayli had to 
pick her up so she could add more pieces!


 So cute!
 Love these two!
 And these two too!!
 These little party animals were given permission 
to stay up as late as they wanted for New Years,
later that statement had to be modified to "unless
we go to bed, then you have to too"  This picture 
was taken at 2:30am!!!  We finally had to send 
them to bed.  : )
 Dancing!
 I see you!!!

 Norah has her arm around Alayah.
These kids, man, they sure are what make our
world tick.  
We are so very blessed, here's to the new year,
may it be just as fabulous as 2012!

Happy New Year!!!!

Absolutely breathtaking pictures! And such fun, too! Would you believe I have never been sledding? Ever. Probably part of growing up in Alabama, but still. Maybe I need to visit you guys and the girls can teach me how to sled.

Adventures in Potty Training...

Image
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...
