life is good…

June 3, 2011~ Etc.

life is good.
because…
-the weather is lovely.  we can finally wear our summer clothes! and it’s the first time this year i woke up not being cold!

-one day a few weeks ago ana said to me, “mommy, pee pee.” and took off her diaper, sat on her princess potty and pee’d! i was so excited and proud of her i think i ran around holding her high up in the air while running around the whole house screaming for 10 mins.  i’ve never trained her prior to that or even attempted to start. so she’s been potty training herself ever since and guess what? she just made #2 in the potty this morning!   i had a feeling to just wait on the potty training and not rush or stress about it and i’m so glad i waited and listened to my mother intuition.

-i got 11 hrs. of sleep last night.  can i get a what what?
  
-i received this beautiful painting of my little girls from this talented artist.  i can’t wait to frame it and hang it up in their room, what a pleasant surprise! thanks a million!
i hope everyone has a great weekend!
