Update on Potty Training

So, I have been working on potty training Ansley relentlessly these past few weeks...we've had our ups and downs but today we hit a milestone. Ansley has not worn a diaper at all today and she has NOT HAD ANY MESSES!!! She tells me when she needs to go potty, I take her over there, she sits, goes potty and we get off...that's it! She is so excited to show me how she goes pee-pee on the potty. I'm so proud of her, hopefully were on our last pack of diapers....we'll see...

(Sorry Jenn, Dad told me you'd be upset when I post this, but he said he cant wait to see what you say because he was cracking up with your last comment...)

Geez..that stinks!

So my Mom and Dad have been vacationing in Guatemala and aren't expected to return until late next week....well...

Apparently my Mom somehow broke her leg and ankle having something to do with a zip line...it gets worse! So she has apparently been told that she needs surgery when she gets home and had to have a metal plate and screws put in her ankle.

I haven't talked to Mom yet, but I hear she is pretty upset. She is on a flight back to town right now and is already in Dallas. She needs some shorter crutches, so if anyone has some call me, if not just wish her well, I'm sure she is in a lot of pain! She'll probably need a lot of help over the next couple weeks.

Mom when you finally read this, I feel so bad for you, you'll need an ever better vacation when you recover to make up for this one! Hope you heal fast! Love Beck...

Sleeping Baby

How is it that a sleeping baby can just melt your heart? Today she wanted to sit on the couch with her blanket, barbie and flamingo pillow and watch Baby Einstein. Awe...I rarely get moments like this with her anymore. Love it!

Sundays...

So this past Sunday Ansley and I were waiting for Daddy to get home from church from his calling and I found Ansley in her diaper box with her Barbie. Okay okay, so I didn't just find her in there, she asked me to put her in the box, but she sure looked surprised in the next picture.
There she is hanging out with Barbie!

Good times...

One of Ansley and my favorite things to do together is to dance, its rarely ever very good, but we sure have a blast. Here we are, I hope she remembers these moments!

The latest...

One of Ansley's favorite things to do now is to jump off of anything that is off the ground, and most times without warning...so we have to always be aware. Here she jumped on Uncle Tim.

She has also started this jumping pose? I'm not quite sure why or where she got it from, but she throws her arms back as far as they will go and then stands up and jumps, here are the pictures of it...its really quite funny in person.

Yep, jumping off of the "Princess Castle", meaning...the coffee table covered in a blanket.

Here arms look silly, but she does it whenever I ask her to!

Starting her pose.

Jumping on Kim (Tim's girlfriend).

Ansley in her Princess Castle.

Ansley made Kim and Tim get inside the Princess Castle with her, I thought it was funny so I took this picture.
Funny story about her and Uncle Tim...
So Ansley was playing with Uncle Tim in our living room, and Tim was laying on the floor very similar to this. Ansley walks up to Tim and points at his shirt and says..
.
Ansley -"Birdie!"
Ansley - "Mommy Birdie!"
Mommy - "Yes Ansley there is a Birdie on his shirt" (little ones on Tim's trendy shirt).
Ansley - "I want to kill the Birdie, Mommy."
Ansley - "I want to kill it!"
.
I have no idea where this came from, however suffice to say Ansley will not be joining PETA anytime soon.
Here is my mischievous little one. You can tell she is thinking of something naughty!

Very girlie little one!!

Ansley was trying on a headband that she had when she was a baby a couple of days ago and here are some of the pictures, she even put it on herself!
My FAVORITE picture!!

Always being a naughty 2 year old, but she is just so dang adorable I can't be mad!!!
