Iron bowl!! ROLL TIDE!!

So the biggest day in the state (besides Christmas) is the IRON BOWL!!! It is so funny literally every single person you see the week leading up to the game is sporting their team (Our family is no exception)! We went outside today while Heath and Papa put out Christmas lights around our house and it felt great outside!

Pushing her wheel barrel  

Our sweet little neighbors from across the street, who Allie Kate is obsessed with, came over in their team gear "booooing" me for our Alabama attire :)

She just loves Tanner...too bad he's an Auburn fan :) Haha

Then they decided to climb a tree :) She's only 2 but geeez she thinks she is 10!!

Tanner actually told me I had the wrong colors on today haha :) It's so funny how we raise our kids to love one (either AU or Bama) and hate the other!

I think she looks pretty darn cute in her Alabama clothes though!!!

After playing we came in and had lunch and Allie got a fudge round and literally smashed it right in her face and rubbed it up and down her arms! I think she was trying to show off for Summer and Tanner!!

Look at this little sassy face!

So we played outside and Allie Kate is taking a nap resting up for the game...we are ready!!! Going into this game Bama is ranked #2 and Auburn is ranked #22. Who will pull out the big win? DUH.....ROLLLLLLLL TIDDDDE! Hopefully going to the Championship game :)



*Ohh and by the way so many people told me it would happen and I still never saw it coming......my sweet angel that I love more than anything in this world is officially and "daddy's girl" :(  It makes me very sad!

Happy Turkey Day!!!!

It's Thanksgiving and I have SO much to be thankful for! We woke up today and got ready and headed to Nan and Pop's to eat with them at about 12:30...Daddy, Pop, and Papa (oh and Allie Kate haha) fried a turkey! Allie Kate just wanted to be outside, and I don't blame her it was so pretty today!

Nan and Pop dragged out this old horse that used to be Heath's and AK thought it was so cool :)

Riding the horse!

Hanging out with her Papa

Notice the cookie on his leg haha :)

Then we came home for a nap (yeah right) I laid Allie down and then about an hour later she got up because it was very clear she was not going to sleep :) But then about an hour before we were supposed to go down to Nana's house to eat she decided that she would like a nap (well I kind of decided for her :) Who know maybe she is just so excited about the food...or the shopping haha

Well it happened....Allie Kate has been potty training since last Wednesday (and is doing great with close to no accidents and she is even wearing panties in public now) and she finally went poo poo without us having to tell her it was time to go sit on potty!!! Whhhhooooo hoo :) She looked at Heath and said "Allie Kate pooted" and then took off down the hallway to her potty! I love that sweet little booger! I know people have horror stories with potty training but this has been a breeze (and I hope it stays that way) she LOVES her panties and begs to even wear them night night (but I still make her wear a night time diaper at night) but we went to the movies for the first time last night and she wore a pull-up just in case but we just took her potty and she never even tee tee'd in it!!! GOOOOO ALLIE!!

So last night we took Allie to her first movie! We went and ate at Jason's Deli and then went to watch "Puss in boots" with Gran and Papa...needless to say she was not all that entertained! She watched it for about 20 minutes and that was all she could stand to stay still and be quiet :) And the time that she did watch it she literally repeated in a funny voice everything that the little cat in the movie said! It was pretty funny! Maybe we will try again when she is a little bit older!

About to head out to see her first movie!

us in the movie theater...she literally shook she was so excited while we were walking in...then she found out it required her to be still :)

At dinner

She loves her ice cream

I thought this pic was so funny because this is like everyday life...me trying to get Allie Kate to look at the camera and smile...her not looking...and Heath staring like "Oh my gosh what are yall doing"! But it's a good thing I am around to take pictures because I think Heath would just say forget it haha :)

We have had a great Thanksgiving holiday so far!!! Thank you Lord for everything!!!

Our past few weeks...

We had Allie Kate's 2 year Dr. appt this past week to see "Dr.Bill." Allie Kate HATES going to the doctor and I don't really love taking her either! My sweet girl weighs 23 pounds (in the 7% on weight) and 33 1/2 inches tall (about 50% in height). She has had random rashes and allergies on her lately and Dr.Bill said that they are just viral and might be the cocci virus? Whatever that is :) He said it is kind of like the chicken pox but not as serious and it will go away on its own. She did not have to get any shots but did get a flu mist in her little nose!

Allie still loves chic fila and this past week when we went she actually got up in the play place by herself for the first time ever!!! I was so proud of her (there were no other kids up there).

Oh and she is excited that you can trade your prize in for an ice cream cone!

We have started potty training and she LOVES her panties....and m&m's so it is going really well!! We have had a few small accidents but she is doing better than I could have hoped for!!!

In the buggy at "publickedys"

Allie LOVE playing with play dough...we make all sorts of good food out of it!!

And I have to remind her that it is gross and we do not eat it haha :)

We put up our Christmas tree :) Early I know but fun!! I am so ready for Christmas and Santa and all that fun stuff!

We had Jake's championship football game today in Leeds (they lost) but Allie Kate had a good time once the game was over out on the field!

 Allie has still not gotten used to the whole time change and I can't wait until it gets back to normal!! she has been waking up around 6-6:30 in the morning!! So I put her in the bed with me and told her that it's still night night and she said "It's not dark outside mommy"!! But she slept anyways!!

haha

Allie Kate with all her babies after naptime!!!

News Alert: My sweet girl is using her potty!!!

Allie Kate "tee tee'd" in her potty 5 times today and "poo poo'd" once today!!!!! I am SOOOO proud of her, this is by far the best she has ever done with her potty!! Now she didn't come to me and say"Hey mom put me on the potty I need to go" or anything but she has been wanting to wear her little panties and so today she got to wear them for an hour or so and when she woke up from her nap I put them on her and she wore them until bedtime!!! I would put her on the potty about every 30 minutes and I probably worried the poor little thing to death reminding her that she had on big girl panties and not to pee in them :) She did get behind the Christmas tree once and had a small tee tee accident but she came and told me immediately!! I love this little sweetkins and I know she is definitely smart enough so I think it really may be time for this crazy journey!! And I have to admit I love seeing her little booty in her little minnie mouse panties!!!
