potty chart

Miss Diva is doing wonderful with potty training. This is her chart for last week. We actually ran out of the little magnetic stickers to put on. Today she is in underwear!!!! I can't believe she in underwear!!!!

LOUD noises

Recently Miss Diva has created a fear of loud noises. Motor bikes scared the pee out of her. She covers her ears and runs for cover. Jason was mowing the lawn and she wanted to help him sooooo bad. He told her if you want to help, come I will hold you. It took me carrying her to him and him carrying her for a bit. Then he put her down and had her wear the ear muffs. She thought this was great.

crazy busy.....

 Life has gotten crazy busy lately, to the point where I can't remember the day of the week. It first started with Miss Diva's birthday party, then we were off the following week.

We had to move our shed because the only flat surface in our backyard is where the old shed is sitting.Well, we bought a new shed instead and had to put it together and build a platform. Now her swing set is going where the old shed was and the old shed is going in the back near the gate to put little misses outside toys in.

Then my mom arrived safely from Newfoundland, which I am very thankful for.

Then Jason's brother, sister-in law and nephew arrived from Winnipeg.

Now, I am trying to get back in the groove of working....which I am hating right now. I'd rather hang out with little miss and play all day and go for walks in the neighbourhood. I've never really had a hard time going back to work, but since little miss arrived home, it's the last thing I want to be doing.



 Mom taking little miss to the store...this is the first time someone has taken her without jason or I there. She didn't cry or anything.
 This is what she got at the store with my mom, she is spoiled silly and she knows she is too.
Last, we are potty training and she is doing wonderful. I see a diaper free kid soon and I am happy but a little sad at the same time. My baby girl is growing up way to fast.

First dance class ALONE!!!!!

jason and I have been discussing on how to start "leaving" her without us. Knowing that she loves dancing and as already done 2 terms of dance classes with this instuctor, we decided to enroll her in a dance class tuesday nights with this same instructor but solo. As you can tell, she had no problems, with the door open. Shortly after I took these pictures, the instructor had another child close the door. I thought maybe then she would cry but nope she was brave and went on with her dance class.



Look at the moves on this little girl, she was totally into it. Gotta love her to pieces!!! After the class was over, I went to talk with the instructor to see if she needed the toto and stuff....yes for the fall. Also, she had mention how advanced her gross motor is. Also, that her attention span and concentration is amazing for her age. She thinks she is a darling to watch and is going to be one of their dancers in the future.. I'm a proud momma.
