Big Milestones for the girls in our life!




So here is an update on the major things happening with the girls lately. It seems like it took forever but Savannah is now potty trained! Actually she has been for quite some time now. We had to work extra hard with her, she is so incredibly smart but this just took her actually wanting it to work!

We finally started a "potty jar" where she got a treat each time she went potty. I think I have bought enough play-doh to own stock in the company. We buy the bags of about a bazillion little cans each holiday. So that has been amusing. We also filled it with candy of course. Can we say "cavity queen?" She still expects a treat now and then from the potty jar. She is also quick to want a treat and tell you "well me go potty before" so she keeps track of how many times she has gone apparently!

We are so proud of her! Next up, learning more of her numbers!

Ella is also crawling and sitting up now. It started as this little pull, scoot and rolling thing and now she is crawling. For a while there she could get anywhere she wanted to in a matter of seconds just by rolling! It was quite funny! However she is still so petite that seeing her crawl almost seems strange. She is just the littlest thing to be down on the ground getting around!

Saturday we went for a drive to East Carbon/Sunnyside/Columbia and then to dinner at the Cowboy Kitchen, where it seems everyone in Carbon County was trying to eat as well. We got home and were getting the girls ready for bed and Ella started doing this mountain crawl.....she would get up really high with her bum in the air like the shape of a mountain and then almost do the splits. I just had to get a picture.

However after taking the picture I realize our little girl is really PALE! I mean we already knew this but its amazing how it looks on camera! Poor little thing taking after her mama........the sun will not be a friend, she will only burn! Anyway we will keep putting up pictures the more we take.
