I feel safe saying, she's done it!

This is the latest addition to Autumn's wardrobe. She's officially potty trained! About a week before her 3rd birthday, she started wanting to do it. She's had a few rough days, with a few accidents here and there, but she's now gone over a week with no problems what-so-ever!! We are thrilled to have a break from diapers for a few months. We gave away the almost brand new box of diapers, and she isn't going back! She says diapers are yucky! Her favorite motivators were reese's peanut butter cups, and she loved the new gold handle flusher James installed on our toilet recently because the white handle had broken. She's even keeping dry at night with no pull ups! We called them waterfalls, and she loved it! What a funny girl. We're sure proud! Aren't these undies so CUTE?!!

Happy 3rd Birthday Autumn!

Today is our little Autumn's birthday! We can't believe she is 3 already. She has been a fun girl, and we love to have her in our family! She could not wait for her birthday, so we tried to make it a fun day she wouldn't forget!



Autumn recently discovered dress up. She has a purple dress, a cinderella, and today she got a Belle dress! Here she is in all her Belle glory. Now all she needs is a beast to dance the night away with!


Here's Autumn trying to show you on her fingers how old she is. That's 3, in case you can't tell! We'll work on that!

Bring on the presents, baby!! She couldn't wait. This is first thing in the morning. Well, not first thing. They did wake up about 6:30 a.m. WAY TO EARLY for me.

She had to have a pink purse for her birthday!

Present from Grandma and Grandpa Heaton!

We know she loves Tink, and now she'll have a book to come in handy with her next present!

AHHHHH PINK crayon.......my favorite. Now I can color Tink and all the other fairies PINK!

Mom is very partial to Belle, can you tell? I can't help it, she's my favorite. So, I guess I am trying to push a little Beauty and the Beast on her. They even watched it after opening presents!



Later there was much fun had at Jumpin' Jacks!




Then she was tired and ready to go! We needed to get ready for Grandma and Grandpa coming over for dinner, cake, and ice cream.

Cake time!



THREE BIG ONES!!!



Presents from Grandma and Grandpa Brookes! Thanks for coming to celebrate our baby girl!


We think she had a great day, and thanks for all the birthday wishes and fun presents from everyone!
