not just a tablecloth

went to pick up mese & sila from school today and imagine my alarm when i took luana out of her carseat to find...you guessed it-POOP! it was all over her front and back, lucky me. i had no time to change her and i didn't have an extra onesie so nani helped me look for something, anything that i could wrap around her til we got home. and then we spotted the only thing we could use...my tablecloth. i was relieved to find it. of course, it too had poop smeared on it by the time i got home, but who cares. it served its purpose,right?

down to one...YES!

that's right! luana is the only one in this household wearing diapers...nani girl is potty trained! the day after i gave up on the whole thing-she decided she wanted to do it on her own and...SHE DID! i'm sooooooooooo thrilled. now, if i can only get nani to stop talking back and telling me what she thinks-all the time!:) i know...too much to ask for.

it's official...

WE HAVE THE FLU! well, nani has the flu so, as much as we LOVE to have friends and family over, on this particular occasion...PLEASE STAY AWAY!:) i mean it with all the love in my heart:) don't want anyone else getting sick. we'll certainly let you know when the coast is clear-i just hope luana doesn't get it-yikes.

please hurry!

i wish fall was here. i just love the weather in the fall and the colors...even though i know they're way prettier on the east coast-but oh well. i can't wait much longer...and of course, stagecoach days is just around the corner! woooohoooo!:)

disbelief...kinda

imagine my shock(sorta) when mason sat down with this(see picture to left of post). and the following conversation took place.
me:what is that?
mason:(without any hesitation) my cereal bowl!
me: mason! that's my mixing bowl! you can't eat cereal in my mixing bowl!
mason: this is a "man's bowl" and i'm eating my cereal in it!

the second picture to the left was taken to compare a "regular bowl" with a "man's bowl". i know...there's something definately wrong with that picture. someone please explain it to my husband.

no more water!

we've been going back and forth on getting a new fridge. we've been looking at the one we want at our local best buy, but i can't seem to let go of that money...for a fridge. i know we need one because i'm tired of almost slipping on water that comes out the bottom-it's a huge hassle, not to mention dangerous. and the bottom drawers broke so our fridge is falling apart. anyway, mason saw "our fridge" on line for a much better price and where did he find it you may ask? best buy.com of course! so it looks like my kitchen floor may be water free afterall(from the fridge anyway:).

pt progress report

nani's potty training(pt) progress report:
day 1: 1/4 she pee'd once in toilet...not so good.
day 2: 8/8!!! she pee'd in the toilet from morning til night...and yes, she even pooped, TWICE:)
day 3: so far, 3/3 including one poop-she's doing so well!

we're so proud of nani...i got her some big girl panties today at wal-mart. she can't wait to wear them. she even waited til we were almost done shopping to tell me she had to go potty. what a pro.
