Potty training (are we done yet)

Hali is 2 years old now!, I can't even believe how fast my little girl grew up!. she has always been one that has to do things early, example: she got her first tooth at 3 months she started crawling at 6 months, walking at 8 1/2months talking really early, and clear!. well she started showing signs of potty training when she was about 13 months old, yes it was early but we thought WHY NOT!. well she did really good for a little while, then wanted NOTHING to do with it, then my MIL came down to visit and we started again. Imagine all of us sitting on her pink potty trying to get her to use it! (all of us meaning, her Grammy, Uncle Michael, Uncle Patrick, Tia Nannie, Zachry, and myself. still she wanted NOTHING to do with it. A few months past and she would go when she wanted to . but it had to be HER idea!. Then it got close to me having the Gavin, Hali went to stay with her Grammy. we would call and talk to her every night!. and each night she would tell us what a big girl she was going potty!!. she stayed at Grammies for about a week, when she came home she was a BIG SISTER!. what a big deal that was for her!. that was also a big deal for her potty training!! yet again she wanted nothing to do with it!.. Brother had diapers on, and got changed alot, with extra attention. she Hali wanted to wear diapers too!. we did the pull up thing for awhile, but that didn't work too well, because she KNEW she could still potty in them! she does REALLY good when shes just in big girl panties!. so that's it!. that's how we did it!. No diapers No pull ups! JUST big girl panties! (with Dora on them, she cant pee on Dora).
Today was a big day for her!. while i was putting laundry away i heard her singing some song about #2, so i came out of my closet and went looking for her, She has a step stool in my bathroom, and she climbed up all by herself and went #2!. and for the rest of the day when she has to go, she gets up all by herself, and goes potty!. =)
I know its a silly thing to blog about!.
but i have been trying for SO long to get her out of pull ups!, to take the "next step" with her. It just seems like every time we get close , she back tracks!! from wanting to be a "baby" and getting more attention , or because shes sick, and just cant hold it!.
I'm so proud of my big girl!!. and hope she keeps this up!!.

An OVER due update!! =)

I think it is time for me to keep this thing updated.

First off i want to start off with an update!.

Jan 09, we packed up and moved to GA, we said goodbye to some great friends!, and Hello to new ones!. I left NC a few weeks before the move with Hali, to find a house to rent, then went back to NC to help pack up the house and get moved!. Thanks the great friends we had their we where able to get the house packed and cleaned on time and turned back into military housing!. the same day we packed up we had zachrys "goodbye " lunch. it was also his good buddy butterfields lunch as well, then we hit the road!. for the long drive ahead of us to good ol Georgia!.

we ended up living in a hotel for about a week, until we got everything with the rental house settled.

Before we moved to GA I joined NWAtlantamommies.com, to get a head start and idea on the living around here. I noticed someone was having a "pure romance party" and thought it would be fun to just get out and meet some new people!! and that's just what i did!

I went to Meghan's house not knowing one person!!. They where all VERY welcoming! and took me under their wing!!. I did notice alot of pregnant people!. =) And made the comment "it must be in the water" sure enough it was in the water!!.. a few weeks later i found out i was pregnant!!..

9 months later I gave birth to my beautiful son Gavin Ryan Williams! (oct 27th 2009).

8 days later we celebrated Hali's 2ND birthday!!.

In between all of this we had been looking for a house to buy!. put an offer in on one house. and it fell through... So we kept looking and found what was the "perfect house for us"

dec 17th 2009 we closed on our house! and our dreams came true!!. we are now living the "American dream"

Today Hali is 2 and a half!! and Gavin 5 months old! and i can not believe how much my life has changed, I love every crazy minute of it!!!. I have everything i could ever want and need!.
