Our Day At The Mall

Avery and I needed an excuse to get out of the house yesterday, so I decided we go to the mall. It's a nice way to spend the morning!!

We saw the really, really tall tree -

We even saw Santa. Avery only thought she wanted to go talk to him, she even waived from afar, but then quickly changed her mind when we got closer. I am not one of those people who make her take pictures with Santa if she doesn't want to. Maybe next year.

I do love this playground. I never feel like I have to follow her around, it's that soft foamy material and even if she fell off it's all low to the ground, so it wouldn't hurt. I just let her play and play and play and play. My daughter is always about a head taller than most all kids her age, even kids a little older than her. I always say my daughter is so tall, and people tell me, "It's OK Jenna - her parents are tall!" like I am saying she is tall because I don't like it. I love that my daughter is tall. I didn't love being tall my teenage years because I was taller than most all boys (I was never taller than Jason, even as a teen!) but as a young adult, I started to realize how much I loved being tall!!

I just can't believe we only have two weekends before we go back out of town to celebrate Christmas with Jason's family, then, it's Christmas? This year, December is rushing through way too fast.

Guess Who Has A New Potty???

This girl!! Jason and I took Avery to Target tonight to find a potty chair. We didn't know what kind to get. When we got there, she loved the Sesame Street one. It's the kind that sits on the toilet, not an actual chair. I've heard both reasonings on a chair and a pad for the real toilet. On one hand, the chairs are little and easier for them to sit on and they aren't scary to flush. On the other, the pad doesn't require you to have to clean out a chair and they teach kids to sit on the big potty from the get go. What it really came down to was that we just don't have a big bathroom at all, so keeping an actual chair in the bathroom would have been hard. So we got the pad. It has a little hook that you attach to the tank, so you can hang the pad on it. I love this! I have no intention of actually potty training Avery full out, just yet. I don't think she is ready. But I have heard it's good to have one that they can practice sitting on and get u...

Some Changes...

We've been going through a bit of a transition at the Whitehead household the last month or so. I haven't really talked too much about it because I wasn't ready, to be honest. It's just a lot of change and I've been trying to figure it out in my head. As of three weeks ago last Friday, I am no longer a full time work out of home employee. I can't believe I just said that. It's been the plan for several months now for me to go into real estate and it was always assumed I'd be doing that part time, while keeping my full time job. Plans kind of changed when Jason got his promotion. He'd always has a job that allowed him a lot of flexibility. In sales, especially after you've been in a position for a while, it just sort of happens that way. He could take Avery to daycare and pick her up, he could take her to doctor's appointments, he could even do chores around the house in the afternoon, while I was at work. I had some flexibi...

Just a little bathroom project....

Raise your hand if this is what your bathroom looks like after every round of baths at your house????
