Potty Training & Terrible Twos....

Why do these go hand in hand? I 'm just confused as to why potty training has to come at a time where the child is so "me, me, me!" It's tough, but she has made a few succesful trips and this is early on...I suppose there is always a light at the end of the tunnel.

Some things from her Bday. It was monkey themed. I thought it fit my wild child pretty well:
Custom invite by me!
 (That's the contact info blotted out)
I couldn't find a cake design so I made one:
Melting in the heat
It was harder than it should be since the stores had no icing color and I had to use food color. It really allowed for my icing to get melty and not hold the shape I needed. It was a fun experience though. Makes me sooo want to go to be a cake decorator. Oh, and it tasted awesome!
I also made the decor. Some brown craft paper to make monkey vines, and some drawn up monkeys to hang on em. It was a pretty home made birthday party, and maybe I'm biased, but it was oh so cute!
The Birthday Girl
Some picks from last year to remind me how my girl has grown so fast.
"Sew fun to be One" was the theme I believe..
Pulled back her long hair to reduce cake getting in it...Still didn't work.
