Well we finally made it to Izzy's 3 year check up yesterday, I had to reschedule the appointment for the afternoon because at 8:30 when we were getting ready to leave I couldn't find my car keys, after searching high and low in the house, I went outside to check the car and found them inside..with the doors locked. My new task for the week is to make another copy of my car key! Jeremy was at work with his copy, so we were stuck.
So they rescheduled us for the afternoon and it turned out to be a great appointment. She weighs 35 pounds and is 37 inches tall. That puts her in the 60th percentile. Her pedi was pleased with that since for so long she was pretty low on the charts, she sure has caught up now! Everything else checked out fine and she didn't need any shots. It was so cute to watch her follow Dr. Otrembiak's instructions, I had to refrain from laughing when he was listening to her chest and told her to cough and she let out this dramatic fake cough. I can't believe how big she is getting, its all happening so fast! She is at such a fun age and every day is an adventure.
She hasn't had an accident during the day or at nap time in over a week and today was the second day in a row that she has waken up dry, I think I may be able to say she is COMPLETELY POTTY TRAINED very soon! She is also just about lost her fear of the automatic flushers in public restrooms! Which makes it much easier to be out and about!

Summer Time Fun!
Yep, I'm LOVING being off for the summer with my girl! It has been fantastic! With Jeremy's work schedule we have been able to do so much already and its been a nice change. With the exception of holiday weeks when Pepsi is on a crazy sale, then we don't see much of him.
We have already been to the Zoo several times, Union Terminal, and one of Izzy's favorites- We went to see Barney LIVE at US Bank Arena in Cincinnati! It was such a neat experience to watch her face! We went camping a few weeks ago and took a trip to Coney Island the next day to swim. I have to say that tan lines on a 3 year old are probably the cutest thing ever!
On top of all that, we celebrated Izzy's 3rd Birthday! I'm still not sure how that is possible. Time is going by so fast and I intend to enjoy every minute of it!
We are also in the midst of potty training. It is going so much better than I had ever hoped. My method? I put her in panties. The first morning she peed 7 times in the floor between 9-noon. About 12:30 she came to me and said she had to go pee and every since then (6 days ago) she has had 2 accidents! I never dreamed that she would transition so well. Our only issues are that she is afraid of the automatic flushers in public restrooms. I haven't a clue on how to get past this other than keep exposing her to them. But even when we are out and she doesn't want to go in them, she holds it until we get home. And she only wants me to take her.
Izzy's speech is improving so much. I can have conversations with her, she calls me mommy now <3. She can count to 13 and knows the majority of colors. I am so proud of all of her accomplishments.
We are making the most of this summer because once August hits classes start back up for me AND IZZY. As much as it breaks my heart, my baby girl is going to start preschool. I am excited for her to make new friends and ecstatic for the opportunity for her speech to improve BUT the thought of someone else being with her during the day really makes me uneasy. I think she will love it, we have been to the school twice and both times she has not wanted to leave.
I know I say this on every post but I really mean it this time- I am going to start using this more!
