our outting in the blazin' sun

We fought it but we could not stay inside the house today. We are a

couple girls that like to be on the go!

We met up with our friend Erin for lunch and had some good "girl talk"

then albo and mommy headed off to run some errands and do a lil' shopping.

I let her take her shopping buggy that Aunt Susie and Uncle Teddy got her for Christmas this past year. She had everyones attention. It was the cutest thing. She strapped her baby in the top and carried her mini vera bradley purse! She took it in Bed Bath and Beyond, Gymboree, Victorias Secret where they fell in love with her! They gave her one of those stuffed PINK dogs and a gift card, which Aubree is convinced is a credit card and she can make purchases with.

Then we ventured on to Food Lion to do our grocery shopping. She told me she was taking her card in to buy cereal!

I let her put a few things in her buggy. Of course she picked cereal, pizza rolls, hamburger meat (awkward), shredded cheese, and a can of green beans.

She put her groceries up on the belt and handed the lady her Victorias Secret gift card to pay! It was too funny!

After we came home and put our groceries up i took her out for a cold treat. We have this new place in town called Sweet Ce Ce's. Its a frozen yogurt place buffet style!

You get your on yogurt and pick out what you want to throw on top. They have about 50 different things to pick from.

Aubree picked bubble gum flavored yogurt, yuck! but she loved it. She threw sprinkles, sour worms, skittles, whip cream, and 1 cherry on top!

we had a great day together! love my baby girl :)

we're pottying!!!

Aubree is goin' in the potty!! She has been fighting Bryan an I tooth and nail about using a big girl potty. She was saying "no, i'm mommy's baby", " i wanna wear my diaper!", and " i don't wanna be a big girl".

She had even gone as far as finding a hidden diaper, pulling off her panties, and attempting to put it on herself, i'm not joking!

but what did it take.....

Reagan Using the potty!

and Mommy letting go of the fact that she is growing up and it was time :(

After she went to east tennessee for a week and returned to daycare she was still resistant of doin the potty thing. She even snook Reagan off to another room at Sarah's and was taking her out of her panties and putting a diaper on her. She covered her in baby powders and sarah's floor too :-/ sorry sarah..

anyway, the second day after Reagan pee peed at Sarah's and everyone was clapping and praising her and making a really big deal out of it, Aubree decided if everyone got that excited over peeing in the potty it must not be so bad. She told sarah she needed to go and she has been doing great!

We've had a few accidents and i know there will be many more but we are making progress!

Miss Aubree is doing so good and i feel so proud :)

O, and yes she really does sit and watch elmo videos during!

HILARIOUS!
