Labor Day Weekend

We had a good long weekend together as a family. Here are some highlights.

Saturday we took a family trip to McDonalds for lunch and Walmart. Janna got new shoes that she wasn't excited about until this morning. She walked all around Walmart carrying her bag of marshmellows. She loves marshmellows. We use them to get good pictures. She was so cute hugging the bag as we walked down the isles.

My parents came down on Sunday and brought a twin bed for Janna. She was so excited about the bed rails that keep her from falling. She is currently using my old sheets, my little pony and strawberry shortcake. She looks so cute in the bed. We got rid of the futon and are planning on selling the toddler bed. The room is starting to change. She is sleeping well so far in her bed and is able to to in and out of the bed without a problem. It is nice to be able to just change the sheet if there is an accident instead of cleaning the futon with chemicals.

She talks about baby brother sleeping in the crib.

After her first night in the twin bed she told me she had to pee and took her diaper and skirt off ( in the living room) and we went to the potty. She used the step stool and she sat on the big potty and peed. She really went. We clapped, cheered, and danced afterwards. I am so proud of my girl.

On Monday Isaac Dad came down and we grilled out together and put a new facet in our kitchen sink. yeah for no more dripping!!!!

This morning I took her to school and she went right in and pushed the stroller and me out. I didn't have to hand her off. There were no tears, just a kiss good bye. My baby girl is growing up and I am so proud of her.
