Friday Funnies: Goodbye November!

My little girl makes me laugh and love her more every day.  What would I, I mean we, do without our Megan?

I'm going to share a couple cute pictures first this week.... Megan must be getting jealous of all Owen's baby toys!  She's been climbing in and out of his exersaucer the entire week!!

Megan (Ms. I can dood it all meself) literally did top these tortilla pizzas for me on her own!  She is becoming quite the Mommy's little helper in the kitchen!

Three of Megan's grandparents celebrated birthdays this week so her and I were going to bake little cakes for everybody.  Tuesday night we went to the grocery store to buy the sour cream and then baked a deee-licious batch of banana bar cake.  I think Megan's favorite part about helping is sticking her finger in the bowl of batter and sampling.  She doesn't really get the licking the beaters or spatula part but loooves to dip and lick her finger.  Throughout the mixing of the batter we kept talking about how this cake was for Grandmas' and Grandpa's birthdays.  Megan must have really liked the batter because once she looked up at me and sighed... "Can it please be my birthday too?"

Megan's doing a great job potty-training this week.  I think we are just getting to the part where she might start telling us when she has to go.  Tonight we were at John's parents' place for their birthday dinner.  Megan walked up to Grandma Lewis and said, "I'm pooping!"  Grandma quickly rushed her to the toilet and started stripping her very carefully to salvage any clothes and keep the poop from spreading.  It turns out there wasn't any poop there at all!!!  Must have just been Megan's way of letting us know she had to go!

Another one from tonight and I think I need to do keep trying to explain Santa to Megan.  We talked about how Santa was going to come soon with presents for everyone.  Well, when we finished dinner she whispered to me, "Can everyone ride in your car, Mommy?"  I asked her, Where?  "To go see Santa!"
