Graduation

Over the last few months, our family has done some graduating.


Our first big adventure in graduating was Jocey moving from her crib into her big girl bed!


Then our family graduated into a bigger home, which we love.


Then we started potty training and pretty soon Jocey graduated into big girl pants! YAY! NO MORE DIAPERS!


Then we graduated from baby toothpaste and let Jocey start using real toothpaste. She even was able to pick it out herself - surprise, surprise, she chose Spongebob!


Now, our little family is graduating from 3 to 4! Yes, I am pregnant. I am about 5 or 6 weeks along, due (tentatively) November 27! Yes, this year, the Yates family is going to have something to really be thankful for on Thanksgiving! Here's the Peanut's first photo op. Yeah, you can't see much other than the fact that I am indeed pregnant:


The little peanut is inside the dark spot on the picture, at approximately "3:00" (according to Jon). Can't see much can ya? Reminds me a little of a "Friends" episode. Anyway, I guess 1% chance of getting pregnant has happened to us and we are so grateful that our prayers have been answered. (Uh oh, more diapers! CRAP!)

YAYYYYYYYYY!!! I am SO very happy for you guys! All of your little graduations have been very exciting. Your new house looks fabulous and that's exciting about Jocey. I need to get going on that with my own toddler. I've been putting it off for obvious reasons. It sounds too hard. :)

Again, a huge congrats. Take it easy and take care of yourself! I'm sure baby will enjoy your yummy meals. :)
