We've been in "training bootcamp" over here this week! Caroline is sleep training (and slowly progressing to say the least) and Anna is potty-training!
We're having much more luck with the potty training than sleeping! Too bad Caroline is too young for M&M's! Anna will do anything for one single M&M and a sticker!! Yesteday we only had ONE accident!! Today, training was put on hold due to a puny-feeling-little girl!
She isn't really sick anymore and for the most part feels fine.. but, when she lays on the couch like this for 30 minutes.. you know something doesn't feel good!!

It's beginning to look like Christmas around here!
Our Christmas Tree fell over last week! Thankfully only two ornaments broke.. and one of those I kept on the tree anyway! We finally got it back up and put together yesterday!
The night before Anna tried so hard to get the beads looking just right!
and Caroline just sat in her swing and looked at the lights!
(sorry it's not the best picture! My camera was not on the right setting!)
This is the first year I've ever decorated the mantle.
I'm pleased! I LOVE our stockings!! I ordered them from Pottery Barn last year and I went ahead and ordered three extras... (just incase!) I'm glad I did because now Caroline has a matching stocking. I've just got to get her name on it!
****Looking Back****
This is Anna a year ago:
I LOVED this one:
My how things have changed!
Anna turns two next week! I can hardly believe it! Time has just flown by!
I decided not to do a party this year but she is getting an AWESOME present.. stay tuned til next Thursday to see!!
...and speaking of birthdays... one of Casey's cousin's little boy had his first birthday last weekend.
Anna was NOT fond of the bounce house..
except for when it was deflated! So funny!
She couldn't believe the pinata!
but really LOVED getting candy!
Caroline was a little sweetie just having fun with her Memaw!
Jon-David had a fun little party. He was a total cutie!
And boys are totally different than girls... that is the only picture I could get of him that wasn't a total and complete blur of a moving baby =) Anna will look at me and cheese so big.. or come to me and say "pretty picture please" which means she would like a pretty picture of (whatever) please!
Well, I better run!
I'll be back with weekend re-cap (we are headed south... after being away from "home" for seven months I'm itching to get back and visit all my friends.. and introduce Caroline!!)
See ya soon!
