The time has come! I have made it over a year with two blogs for both kids, but it has taken quite a bit to keep both updated. I wanted to create a separate book for Cooper, detailing his first year and now it is time to combine the two. Hop on over to check out our new "family" blog.

I think I can safely say that we are at a pretty good place! Caroline hates missing out on anything and it has taken a little bit to convince her that she can stop and go without missing out on anything. It seems like she loved the newness of each tactic we tried, but then it wore off and she just didn't care. I started with marshmallows, then it was M&Ms and then I finally made her a potty chart.<br />

Every time she goes potty she gets a sticker. Each row has 7 flowers and a hot pink flower at the end. Once we reach the hot pink flower, she gets a surprise! The biggest change with doing this, is that she was excited to go and she would actually sit on the potty! {A big improvement!} She loved filling up the different "Princess Rows". I bought presents, wrapped them and put them in a basket next to the potty. All of the presents were small little things from the dollar spot, but she was so excited for each one and couldn't wait to show Daddy every time he came home!<br />

So far it has been several weeks since the chart has been filled up and I just haven't printed out another one. She's done well and we've had really few accidents! Our little girl is growing up SO quickly and so desperately wants to be BIG! She sure keeps us on our toes!The Botts Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00976529069274769468noreply@blogger.com31tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1727422753611904250.post-78654426974783007282012-04-07T04:39:00.002-07:002012-04-07T04:55:12.209-07:00CONGRATULATIONS DADDY!!!<div style="text-align: left;">

Josh had me review his memo to the partners and it really made me honor being his wife! In the first paragraph of the write up he mentioned his family and that first and foremost he is a husband and father and he works so hard for his amazing family! Josh works a lot, but makes sure to be at every important event and always puts us first. He tries so hard to not work at night and always be home on the weekends. We celebrated the evening with some champagne!</div>

March was such a busy month for us and I honestly can not believe that it is over! We started things off with Grami coming to visit on March 1st. This is her annual "tax season" trip to get away for a little while during the time that my dad is swamped, but this year it was extra special because it was Cooper's birthday! We started off the visit with a trip to Canton for First Monday. I have been in Texas for quite a while, but never been so we finally planned a time where she would be here for the first weekend of the month. We had a great time and found a lot of treasures! Too many, in fact, that they did not fit in our car! :)</div>

I started writing this in the beginning of February and still haven't gotten it finished. Some things have changed, but I just can't keep up with my spunky little girl!}<br />
<br />
Caroline...Caroline... Caroline! My where has the time gone?! My little girl has grown into quite the young lady! She has lost all signs of her "baby-ness" and no longer has the chubby fingers or round tummy that identifies a baby. I look at her and honestly could not be more proud of who she is today! She has such a kind and warm heart and just loves to be around people! She welcomes all of her friends with open arms and just can't wait to give them hugs the moment we see them. She runs right in to school and waves bye to me and Cooper like it is nothing and all along the way she never stops talking! She asks question after question and is always learning!! <br />

We have hit several milestones in the past couple of months!<br />
<b><br /></b><br />
<b>1. No more sucking our finger!</b><br />
Most of the recent pictures I have shows Caroline with her index finger in her mouth. Well, she is now only doing it occasionally and hardly at all!! What a blessing and a definite answer of prayer!! Over Christmas, she basically had her finger in her mouth every single second. I was getting pretty worried that she would never stop and this would be a crutch for so long. How do you take away a finger?? We were all constantly getting sick and I was convinced that it was because every germ entered her mouth. Once we were home from Colorado, we attended several birthday parties and were seriously sick for weeks straight! Well, I kept telling her that tons of germs were getting into her body from her sucking her finger. I picked up some big heart marshmallows at the store and placed one on the coffee table. Them I told her that if she didn't suck her finger through an entire Mickey show (yes, I know, tv is probably just as bad, but I'm not giving up that crutch!) without sucking her finger, she would get the marshmallow. We did this for about a day and a half and after that, she really just stopped. It was pretty amazing!<br />

<b>2. Potty Training has Begun!</b><br />
I picked Caroline up from school one day about 2 weeks ago (<i>6 weeks ago now</i>) and started talking to another mom about potty training. Her daughter is a month younger than Caroline and is already potty trained. She has an older son and started telling me how she thought the best way to potty train them was to just put them in panties and go cold turkey. I was impressed, but thought Caroline was far from ready. That afternoon we ended up going to the park with some friends and because we just walked there, I didn't take any diapers. Well Caroline had a dirty one. We had to leave and she had to ride the whole way home in the wagon sitting on her diaper. Right after that I just decided to put panties on her. She has had several accidents, but has done SO well and I am so impressed!! And I'm also SO happy that we did it! The last two days have been completely accident free and she's learning so quickly. She gets two marshmallows every time she goes and she is quite proud of this fact! One morning she had 6 before 10 am. Oops! At the least, it is good motivation!<br />

<b>3. "Let me tell you a Story"</b><br />
Every chance she gets, Caroline will tell you a story! She loves having everyone sit in a circle and begins every time with "All right Boys and Girls, you have to be quiet". She's just so funny and will talk to whoever will listen. Most times this ends up being her bunny and stuffed animals. Her favorite story of all is Jesus, Mary and Joseph and that is exactly how she refers to it. Her Bible is her all time favorite book and she carries it around everywhere. When Josh tried to take it and read her another story out of it, she said "Daddy, the whole book is Jesus, Mary and Joseph!! And it's all true!" I have had to tape the front cover on several times because it is so worn. Her teacher even told me she taught the whole class their Bible story because she knew the whole thing. This child is definitely not shy!<br />

<b>4. Dance Class</b><br />
We started a Mommy and Me dance class in the middle of January. Because it is Mommy and Me, it definitely has me working too! It takes quite a bit of work to keep 4 little 2-3 year olds entertained and on task. But it is a lot of fun and we enjoy dancing like animals, playing air instruments and learning new things every time! Cooper is such a little trooper and gets to sit against the wall and just watch. So far he has been great! I'm not sure how much longer after he really starts moving that we can keep doing it, but so far he has been wonderful! Daddy even came and surprised us for one and watched while Caroline danced. Although she wasn't too happy during that class, she was still so excited he came!<br />

<b>5. Transition to a Big Girl Bed</b><br />
Caroline had been sleeping in her toddler bed for quite some time. We decided to move her to a regular bed the first week of February. Her room is pretty small and twin size really fits the best. If we end up moving at some point, I would like to get her something bigger, so I just did not want to spend a lot of money on a bed. I had been looking on craigslist for daybeds and one morning one popped up that was exactly what I had in mind! $250 later and a random trip to Frisco and we had a new bed!! Thanks to Amanda for helping me pick it up! I don't have a picture of the finished product, bedding and all, but here is Caroline's all time favorite place to hide!<br />

The weather has been so nice lately and it has been great to be able to get out and go to the park!! Caroline has been sick and we were stuck inside for several days in a row. So the other morning, before Cooper went down for a nap, we took a walk to the park. It was early, around 9am, and we were the only people there. Caroline was so concerned and kept asking "Mommy, where are the kids?!" She is such a people person and could not understand why there was no one there to play with.</div>

We decided that New Years was the PERFECT time to go! Cooper was 9 months old and old enough to stay with Grami and Pop Pop and we had a place to leave the kids! We flew from Colorado and then back to Colorado, got the kids and drove home to Texas the next day. It really was a whirlwind, but it was wonderful to have a little time to ourselves.

We ended up at some candy shop and decided to get the kids gifts. Yes, all they had were some HOT pink, sparkly flip flops that said LICK on them. Now remind me why didn't stop in Gucci or Prada?? <br />

Several years ago on our famiy vacation, Josh and I planned a <a href="http://littlemisscaroline.blogspot.com/2010/06/minute-to-win-it.html" target="_blank">Minute to Win It game night</a>. It was so much fun and everyone had a great time. After I found <a href="http://oncloud8.blogspot.com/2011/01/not-so-silent-night.html" target="_blank">this pin</a> on Pinterest, we knew we had to recreate this with a Christmas twist! This is a great way to get everyone involved and really just makes you look silly! There were 11 of us {not including Emma and Caroline} so we only needed several games to last several hours. <br />
<br />
<b>1. Balance the Christmas Tree</b><br />
We started with balancing Christmas ornaments on a yard stick, resting on a paper towel tube. Some made it look easy, but it was harder than you might think. <br />
<br />

It was a good thing that Paul and Andy went last, because they broke most of the ornaments!</div>

<b>2. Face the Gingerbread Man</b><br />
For this game all you need are gingerbread man cookies. You place it on your forehead and, without using your hands, have to get the cookie into your mouth in 60 seconds.<br />

<b>3. Reindeer Nose Dive</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The only picture I have of this one is from my phone, but it was pretty funny! One person from each team dips their nose in vaseline. One end of the ribbon has a red puff ball glued to the end, while the other side is placed in the team member's mouth. They had 60 seconds to get the ball to stick to their nose. Let's just say those with bigger noses might have had an advantage!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>4. Catch the Ball</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Here one person stood behind a certain mark and had to throw a ball into a cup placed on the other person's head. Taylor and Maddy were the ones to beat in pretty much each game! All of the rest of us are just getting old!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

Of course Caroline had to test each game out for herself!</div>

<b>5. Pedometer</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Of course we could not have played with out this game! The last time proved to be quite entertaining so it was fun to watch everyone again! We put a pedometer on a headband and whoever moved the most within a minute, won! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
For the grand finale we let people decide what order they would go in, depending on how they did on each game. Everyone took turns opening a present with ski gloves on. The present was a big box wrapped in wrapping paper with lots of smaller wrapped boxes inside. It was hard to open, but the person who opened the last and smallest box got to keep whatever was inside. We ended with a $20... and I got to keep it! :)</div>

I still have quite a few more posts I need to write about from Christmas and our trip to Colorado, but I decided to jump to real time to share a sweet moment from this week. {It could be a while before I catch up!}</div>

Beauty and the Beast is Caroline's FAVORITE movie! She retells the story about Belle whenever she gets a chance, so when we heard that they were re-releasing it into theaters and in 3-D, we knew this was the perfect opportunity to take Caroline to her first movie!! Josh and Caroline have a little bonding time each night after we put Cooper to bed and before Caroline goes to bed where they watch a little bit of a movie. So movies are kind of their thing! Caroline asked Josh if he would take her and he gladly accepted! She talked about going for weeks and also talked about how she was going to wear her Belle costume and how daddy was going to be the beast! Well, we couldn't quite find a Beast costume, but Josh did get all dressed up. However, when it came time to put on the pretty yellow Belle dress, Caroline had other plans. So we went a different route and decided that this dress looked like Belle's blue dress.</div>

We had quite the surprise on Christmas morning... Santa Claus came and visited!! He was so concerned that the kids would think he forgot about them and wanted to make sure to tell them he had filled their stockings and left presents for them both in Pennsylvania and in Texas, so he made an extra stop to the house. What a treat!<br />

Christmas morning started early and everyone raced upstairs to see who had come overnight. It was quite the sight with presents from Santa Claus! The girls raced to their piles and had a blast playing with toys. <br />

There were quite a few presents and Caroline was a little overwhelmed. This year she actually "got" Christmas and so it was more fun to watch her face light up. She got marshmallows and candy canes in her stocking and of course had to eat them right away! Nothing like sugar at 7 in the morning!</div>

These kiddos are so lucky! They have quite a few Great Grandparents and we were lucky enough to visit GREAT Grandpa and Grandma Green on Christmas Eve. After church we headed over to their new apartment and got to spend a little time before the busy-ness of Christmas began. It was such a nice time. Now getting all four children {as well as grown ups} looking is quite the challenge! We had many takes! <br />

Our Christmas festivities started off by celebrating with Grandmother and PaPaw. Unfortunately Grandmother was in the hospital, but we did not let that stop us! We took the party to her! Nanny and LC were there too and we all enjoyed watching everyone open presents. We were so thankful that Grandmother felt well and could have us all in her room.</div>

The first gift was Reindeer Food. Grandmother had found <i>very special</i> hay especially for Santa's reindeer. It consisted of hay, red sparkly tinsel and marshmallows. What a delicious combination!! Caroline could not wait to sprinkle this outside on Christmas Eve!</div>

Can you believe it?!! Santa took time out of his busy schedule to make a 2nd visit for these little guys! He came to Daddy's office and they were able to have some time with this guy to themselves! Again, they both loved the opportunity to visit and Caroline could hardly wait her turn. But when it was time, she walked right up to Santa and had a lot to say!</div>

Caroline had her first Christmas performance at her school. The two and three year olds sang two songs: Twinkle Twinkle Little Star and Ring the Bells. They did SO well! It is amazing how those teachers can get that many two year olds to listen and participate! Daddy, Cooper and I all came to watch and Caroline did great!</div>

Several weekends ago we got to go and sit on Santa's lap! This was the first time for the year and both kids didn't skip a beat!! Last year was pretty hard for Caroline so we were a little worried. I think it helped that we didn't have to wait in any lines and no other kids were crying. The hard part was getting all three to look at the camera at the same time! Santa wasn't quite ready in the one below! <br />

We celebrated Thanksgiving in Newton, TX this year with Josh's extended family. This was Caroline's second trip to see everyone and she definitely had a lot of fun!! She loved having older cousins around and they did so well entertaining her! We had such a great time visiting and catching up with everyone. I didn't get many pictures of this little girl because she was constantly on the go!</div>

Aunt Rosemary took the kids for rides on the golf cart. Everything was fine and dandy while they were going slow. However, I didn't crop this picture to explain what <i>really</i> happened! With a full cart, everyone was having fun when Caroline got excited and walked across the front. Well she actually stepped on the gas pedal and everyone watched, in what seemed like slow motion, while the golf cart drove directly into the wagon pictured in the background below. The cart crashed and everyone was startled just a bit. It could have been a lot worse, but everyone was okay. Thank goodness!</div>

We were able to stay with his dad for a night and all went to the wedding together. It was quite the whirlwind of a weekend, but so fun to see everyone and get to introduce them to Cooper. We were a little leery on how they would do at a 2 o'clock wedding after a 2 hour drive and no nap. But both kids did pretty well. Unfortunately Josh had to sit with Cooper outside of the sanctuary for most of the service. He just felt like talking more than watching. :)<br />
