Potty Time

This is a baby girl.
This is an angry baby girl.
This is an angry baby girl after a nap.
This is an angry baby girl after a nap on the potty.
This is an angry baby girl after a nap on the potty with her blanket, milk and treat.
Wondering why Mommy and Daddy keep taking pictures of her during private time.
One day she will wonder why Mommy posted it on her blog.
One day she will be happy we took and will think it is as funny as we do....

Newsome Family Fun

Last Sunday, we went to Will and Ashleigh's house for dinner. The kids had fun playing in the yard and we enjoyed some Yogi bear chicken!

Fun Times

Heather Man

No, Heather isn't a man. This is what Sophia decided to call her boyfriend, Shawn, when they came to visit last weekend.Both Ella and Sophia mix up my sisters names. Actually, they call them both Heather for some reason. Sophia played shy with both of them, but then managed to weasel her way into Shawn's lap. She flirted all day with him and paid little attention to Heather. We had a nice brunch at IHOP with the rest of Columbia and then they headed back to Atlanta.
This weekend, Melissa came to visit. Sophia calls her Lissa, which is better than LaLa. She had a wedding in Columbia and had dinner with friends on Friday. Ella loved putting puzzles together with her and desperately wanted Mel to sleep with her. The weather has been awful here. Tripp took Ella to church and Starbucks this AM and then we all went to brunch. It was 25 minutes away and took forever! Both girls are down for naps and then we are going to a visitation for one of my attendings who lost there Mom last week. By we I mean my friend, Jennifer and me. The girls will be playing with her boys. Ella is in "love" with her oldest son, Landon. If you ask her who her boyfriend is she blushes and says, "Lannndon". They are sweet boys. Big Daddy is working hard on taxes and audits and looks forward to May!!!

We're stilllll here!

Things have been very busy lately. We went to my parents house this past weekend. We had a good time, but it rained, rained, rained. The best part was catching up with one of my closest friends from college and her hubbie. My parents babysat for all three kids (thanks, guys!!) and we went and had an adult dinner and adult (sometimes very adult) conversations! We had to wait a long time to sit down, but we didn't care because no kids were pulling on our pants or whining. Their son is so precious and sweet. My Mom bragged that although he drove a big push along cart all around the house as fast as possible, he never hit a wall. Yes, my girls hit all the walls. Maybe he can train them!
Well, we continue to potty train Sophia. She is stable from that aspect. Now, the annoying thing she says "potty" all the time, but doesn't do anything. She continues to improve her language skills and copies everything you say. She hollars "what!" when you call her name. She also walks around the house saying "oh, MAN" like Swiper the fox. Ella got a yellow tag last week at school. She told SuperNanny that she didn't need to tell me, though, because last time I got "disappointed at me". I meant to redo her ponytail tonight before we went to a friends house and got busy, forgot. While we were driving, I said- oh, Ella. MOmmy forgot to redo your hair. She said. "Thanks OK Momma. Its why you have so much to do." She tries to sound so adult. Last week I said a bad word. I told the dogs to shut up in a loud whisper. Ella overheard me and said "OOO Momma, you said a bad word!" I said "ELLA...." before I could finish she said ( with her hands in the stop position" "I know, I know, you can say bad words because your an adult!".
I will post some new pics soon. Tripp stole the camera for some work pics and I don't wanna mess anything up!
