Friday Quick Takes (58)

  Big news in our house!  Anna's pooped on the potty 3 days in a row!  Not the big news you expected?  Well, it's definitely a big deal to us!  She's been potty trained for about a year how and it was relatively easy.  However, for the last year, she has yet to poop on the potty.  She just waits for a diaper at naptime or bedtime.  It was getting very frustrating.  What was the trick?  Apparently she just wanted the bathroom door closed to do it.  Why she didn't tell me that, I have no idea.  Now if only we could night/nap train her...

We did some shopping last weekend.  Anna has pretty much grown out of everything 3T, so with cooler temps approaching, she needed some clothes!  Apparently this girl loves to shop!

We went shopping on our way down to family reunions.  We had a reunion for my grandma's side on Saturday and my grandpa's on Sunday.  Saturday night's reunion was also a surprise 65th wedding anniversary for my grandma's sister and bil.  We had a lot of fun and Anna had a blast dancing all night.  She's still talking about the "party where we did dancing and had "irthday cake".  Apparently "birthday" cake is the only kind of cake there is to my 2 year old!

 

She seriously didn't stop dancing all night long!

Anthony excited about the music too!

I didn't really take pictures on Sunday, other than my sleepy girl conked out in the stroller!  We had fun at the park with family!

 Anthony is quite the character.  He is super super friendly and just genuinely loves everyone.  He's also starting to really get into toys and things.  He is obsessed with cars and balls.  He loves getting into everything, climbing the stairs, and he also really loves to dance.  Here's a video of my super cute son!

The kids have enjoyed watching Jeremy play softball this summer!  I was glad to catch this action shot.  Cecelia came to watch too!

Anthony got his foot braces this week for his severe pronation (feet turning out).  His PT thought he might take a few days to get used to them...  Not the case with Anthony.  He loves them and is standing so nice and straight now!  It's amazing what a little support has done for him!  Hopefully he gets walking soon, I'm ready for that big time!

You can kinda see them in his shoes in this picture.  They barely go above his tennis shoes, so you can hardly even tell they're there!  But look at how straight his feet are, they're not pointing in opposite directions!

 We had fun celebrating the Assumption yesterday!  We made some muffins with blueberries that Anna called her "Mary muffies".  It was also my niece, Cecelia's first birthday!  So we had a party and had fun celebrating her birthday. 

When we got to the party, I told Anna that some friends would be there and she said, "And Princess Tiana will be here too?"  I can't get enough of hearing what goes on in my 2 year old's brain!
