Apologies, faithful readers. I have been on a bit of a blog hiatus. Blame it on being overworked, blessed with a toddler who likes to see the sun rise, and my growing bitterness toward the blog sign in page (it hates me and refuses to let me sign on on a regular basis). I am back but sad to tell you that our life is just not that exciting lately. Few updates to bring you all up to speed (I know you have been lying awake nightly wondering what we were up too :)
1. Ellie tee-tees on the potty - but only for a sticker. She has been super easy to potty train. We are not going on the potty every time but she is up to three times a day and it has just been a natural progression - no fighting. She loves some Dora stickers so that helps. It is hilarious to see her sprinting through the house toward the potty yelling "Run, tee-tee, Run, tee-tee" We are so proud of her for being such a big girl and tackling potty training so early (she is just over two years old).
2. Cute story. Ellie and I went strolling recently. Below is a conversation we had on our walk.
E: Mama, ere moon? (where's the moon"
J: The moon is night night. The moon sleeps in the day and the sun sleeps at night.
E: Oh
Few minutes pass and we come up on some birds chirping.
E: (to the birds) Shhh! Moon Night Night
It was too cute to see her little brain process all of that.
Anderson, your mommy and daddy are very nice to let you play with me. I know that I can be a little rough. My mommy keeps telling me that I am not big enough to pick you up but you are so cute and little and I am big for my age - I just think it could work out. But, since my mom has spanked me at least 3 times this weekend for picking you up, I am really working on resisting the urge. Thanks for still being my friend. I will forgive you a lot of times too (if I need to) when you are older and we can be friends forever, okay? I am really working on playing nice. Remember how I shared my chair with you?
