Potty Trained

Sweet 18 month old Ellie is potty trained!! Last Sunday she decided that she was going to use the potty and she did, all day! Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday she had one accident each day but since then NO accidents :-) I mean we go out and do all the normal stuff she just wears panties. I was nervous to put her in the car without a diaper but if you're going to go go all the way right?!I have been putting a diaper on her for bed time but she hasn't wet her diaper at all! I am just so excited; I can't believe she is potty trained. I am so proud of her, she is such an amazing little girl. She is so smart and her language is getting better and better. She is so great at communicating so that makes life easier :-)
We (Stephen, Ellie, myself, and Stephen's mom) went to the Pumpkin Patch yesterday afternoon and then to the Monster Walk in Columbiana. Ellie had lots of fun and was even saying trick or treat :-). OH, and this morning Ellie and I went to the horse stables right up the road from our house and she loved seeing the horses. Grandmomma taught Ellie that horses say "naaaaaa" and she loves saying it so I wanted to take her to see real horses. She liked it but she didn't want to get too close. Anytime I take her to see animals she is like that. She likes to look at them but she doesn't want to get too close; very cautious :-)
Well this afternoon I am going to take Ellie to Trunk or Treat at the same church I took her to last year so I'm excited. She really likes getting "chocate"...I'll post pictures soon.
