PRECIOUS ANGEL and POTTY TRAINING!

Telling Daddy she likes his hair!

Sitting with her favorite person!

We love our potty chair and our books on potty training. We have another chair upstairs and we even take it with us on outings.

Hi Mommy!

Wow-is it really time for her to be potty trained? Where did the time go? I introduced the potty months ago but would just allow her to "explore" it. Sometimes she would go and other times well she liked her diaper. Last weekend though, I decided we would focus on using the potty exclusively. Mom was here and helped me. Well, low and behold a week later really a few days later and she was "trained". No accidents, no crying, nothing. Easy. I thought it would have been more difficult. She loves showing us the "results" of her potty experience. She did have two accidents with Nana but really she is doing great. I ask her often..."need to potty?" and usually she goes if she needs and "No, mommy" if she doesn't.

I am hesitant to say we are DONE with diapers because I am going to use them at night as long as need be (although she didn't even need it last night). But she is doing really well during the day and I am just thrilled. Sad but thrilled she likes it!

Pool Day with the Neighbors

Rachel and Virginia Grace enjoying the pool. VG turns 3 in August and she has an older brother Jackson. Jake and Rachel are from AL and actually went to Auburn. Jake and Dave were in the same fraternity..small world. We are so glad to have them in the neighborhood! Saturday, we grilled out at the pool and stayed ALL day....relaxing and chatting. Summer is awesome!

Ninnie and Caroline

Several weeks ago, Dave and I took Caroline to the Taste of East Cobb. Delicious food and great weather made for a nice little afternoon. We chatted with the neighbors and supported the Walton Band!!!! Enjoy the pics!!!

Rob and Jenny Wed!!!!

Rob and Jenny wed this past Saturday in the Hampstead area of Montgomery. I worked with Jenny during college at the Veranda and we remained friends through the years. She and Mike became friends when they were both in Dallas. Years go by and memories are made and then she meets this special guy named Rob... and the rest is history. It was an outdoor wedding and just beautiful. Tracy and Michael came all the way from DC. More pics to come but these were some of the prelims. Jenny looked so pretty and all the decor was equally beautiful. Congratulations Guys!!! After a honeymoon in Napa the couple will reside in Atlanta. We hope to have them over for dinner next weekend!

Mary Kathryn, Caroline, and MacKensie

I put this picture up and ran out of time explaining. Caroline had a play date with the Nagode girls and the FIRST things they did was dress up. Two precious little girls and too cute! We had fun hope to have them over soon!!! Tlhanks for a fun day!!!!
