Life Around Here

Piper loves doing something with Daddy everyday. She asks for Daddy every morning when she wakes up and throughout the day!
We finished our summer MDO with our friend Claire. This was their last time at our house when they were able to play dress up!
Piper has been getting more silly with age...and, more sassy!
She knows it is a no-no to get in the snack drawer but how can you always resist those eyes!?!
Playing outside on the swing set it a must almost everyday! And, it has been hot!
We started potty training bootcamp last week on Monday, June 28th and did not leave the house for 3 days except for 1 1/2 hours to do some VBS prep work on Tuesday. Those 3 days were great for her to establish a basis of what it's like to use the potty consistently. I only put a diaper on her at nap and night time. By the 3rd day, I was a crazy person but thankfully she had MDO on that 4th day so I got a little break! She continued having an accident here and there but made a 3 hr. car trip in panties without an accident on the 5th day!!! She even went 4 days without a potty accident, but that was broken twice this week and at VBS this week, she only had one potty accident the very first day. But, I'm pretty sure she has the hang of it and just in the last day has begun saying, "I need to potty!" It's amazing and I'm so proud of her! She is still doing great in the big girl bed and has only rolled out on the floor one time and has only gotten up and opened her door one time! Those were the two biggest things I wanted to get accomplished before baby boy arrived and we are well on our way!! Speaking of, he is arriving in 3 months! Yikes. We still have no name and I still have not taken a preggo picture this whole time. So sad! The 2nd pregnancy is so different! Summer is flying by. We are taking swimming lessons next week and cousins are coming to stay with us! In the meantime, I'm trying to plan a nursery, finish her 'big girl' room and decorate our bedroom! That's nothing, right??!! If you feel led to come help me please do!!
