SNOW much fun!

This winter has been rather dry and boring when it comes to snofall. Remi's only been in her snow suit three times total! But when it does snow, she's quite the little snow bunny! She LOVES playing outside...ANYTIME of year! This past weekend we played outside in the bitter cold just to get her some snow time. She loved transporting the snowballs from daddy's hands to mommy's legs...she's got quite the arm!!! We went sledding and even had Buck pull her around a bit. We spent most of our time outside playing at the park. Our girl LOVES the park! She always asks to go there...even when it's really cold out.

Potty Training: CHECK!

I can now say that Remi is completely potty trained! :) WOO HOO! The whole process took about 5 months, and she did great!!

She used a training potty for a while, but in October the Potty Fairy came and took the potty away. In it's place...a note an a new book. She was thrilled and still talks about the Potty Fairy ;) Since then, it's the big girl potty only for this princess!

She's been going on the potty since August, but was wearing a pull-up at night. She's finally 100% potty trained because for the past two weeks...we are overnight PULL UP FREE! WOO HOO!
This is HUGE, exciting and not to mention cost-effective! HA!

I have ONE picture to share...and I'm sure she will KILL me one day for posting this
picture on the Internet :)

So proud of our BIG GIRL!!

Merry Christmas...one & all!

My parents are visiting for the holiday and it has been such a wonderful Christmas. We've just enjoyed them being here so much. Remi is so full of life these days...they are loving being here in all her glory!

We baked a cake for Jesus' birthday and cookies for Santa. Last night, we hosted Christmas Eve dinner and then made it to the Christmas Eve service at our church.

With Santa's arrival, comes Bunkle's departure. He left her a note to "be good!" She has asked about him a few times today and seems sad that he's gone. She will miss him, but he'll be back next year! All reports to the North Pole must've been good because Santa stopped at our house last night, and boy did he ever spoil our Roo!! She was overwhelmed with all the gifts, but by the end of the afternoon, all gifts were opened....whew! Who would've thought you would have to coax a kid to open more gifts! HA! That will change in time, I'm sure!

Here are some pics from the weekend, and what a wonderful one it was! Here's to many more days off and two more with my parents!!!

From our home to yours, Merry Christmas!
