Jena's Exciting Day!

Today was a very exciting day for Jena.  She loves to paint and those "paint with water books" are the greatest.  She can paint page after page until the entire table is filled with her artwork.  She concentrates really hard and barely takes her eyes off the paper until it's complete.

She also decided that since Taylor was asleep and mommy was cleaning the kitchen, she would create a tower of couch cushions.  She climbed on the tower, jumped onto the pile from the couch and marched on the empty couch.  She even graced mommy with a sweet smile to show how excited she was... that's our cute girl!

The last exciting news is that she's finally decided that she likes panties.  After telling her last night how a few of her cousins wear big kid underwear, she figured maybe she would like it too.  We went almost the whole day without diapers and had more successes than mishaps.  One of the cutest things was when we were playing outside, Jena exclaimed, "Mommy, the pee pee is coming" and then we raced inside.  Hopefully tomorrow will be another exciting day for our big girl Jena!

Jena is a little girl after your own heart! She will most likely be a great artist like her mommy!

Also, I must agree that NOTHING beats a costco box!

Cool that she keeps herself so busy! Good luck with the potty training. Keep at it!
