Tonight we celebrated a MAJOR milestone! Emma and Ella are officially potty trained at 2 years and 9 months of age! Tomorrow marks 7 days diaper free! The girls have done so great, having very few accidents. They even traveled to and from Texarkana without any problems (we did make a pit stop at a liquor store that was closed!) We are putting Pull-Ups on at night just to be safe, but most mornings they wake up dry. They love picking out pretty panties to wear. Ellie would change panties every hour if I would let her...so fashionable! Yay for no diapers!! We have changed and paid for diapers for 4 years straight. Sam and I are excited to be done with this chapter!With the boys away at Grancie's this evening we took the girlies out on the town. They deserved a special treat! We started out by eating at Texas Roadhouse, they gobbled up yummy mac-&-cheese, rolls, and applesauce. We then headed to Target where we found what was left of some good deals from "Black Friday". We found some cheap DVDs, and I got my early Christmas present, a new vacuum for our new house...the pink Dyson...it's cute! After that we headed to the mall to let the girls pick out a bear from Build-A-Bear. It was their very first time to get to do this, and it didn't disappoint!
Here are our potty trained princesses heading into the mall for some fun at Build-A-Bear!
Picking out the perfect animal
They picked a cute little Christmas Moose.
Getting ready to stuff their moose. Daddy pressed the pedal on the stuffing machine because the loud noise made the girls a bit nervous!
waiting patiently
telling the lady their names
Ella Cate putting the heart in her moose
giving the moose a bath...not sure what was up with the lighting in Build-A-Bear
The girls picked out "Kitty-Hello" (Hello-Kitty) Christmas panties for their moose...perfect I thought! Sam thought they needed some more clothing on, but after seeing the price tags he decided that panties were plenty!

proud girls!
On our way out of the mall we stopped at Sunglass Hut to get Robin a gift card for her birthday, and the girls tried on some sunglasses.
Our last stop of the evening was Home Depot to get some parts to fix our sink.
Helping Daddy carry supplies to the check out.Thank God for potty trained children!! : )

Yea for Emma and Ella! The moose look cute! Want to meet up tomorrow?
Congrats to Emma and Ella! I'm hoping to start potty training Gagey in the next couple months. I only hope and pray he's as easy as Corbin was! I love the Moose too! Very cute and even though they were half naked...I think it was an appropriate prize for such a big milestone!! Love and miss you!
Congrats!! How exciting!! Can't wait to celebrate the same milestone...in a couple of years, of course :) By the way, you're a winner!! Email me at ohsospoiled@mail.com...send me a picture you want to use in the header and I can get started!! Happy start of the holidays!
Hopefully you don't think I'm psycho for "blogstalking"! I'm a preschool teacher of 3-4 year olds and work with the 2's as well-so I totally understand that potty training success! And you're girls are precious and I LOVE their names. Yay for no more diapers :)
i bet its so fun to walk around with those cuties and show them off :)
