Scared.

Packing, list writing, panicking. 

Five & a half hours on a plane with Norah??

Love that girl but try to sit still with her for 20 minutes
and you will see that we have a major problem here.
She looks innocent enough right???
Hahahahahaha.  Ha.
I'm not even worried about Ava.  Maybe I should be, but I'm not.
 Even waking her up at 4 am is not scaring me
(although it should)
but I think my worry over Norah is over shadowing
any concerns I have with how Ava will do.

It's this Can't Sit Still Girl, Not Able to Sleep in People's Arms Girl I am worried about.
I generally try not to indulge in worrying.  What is the point??
 The bad thing either happens or it doesn't but worrying about
it only makes it sort of happen either way, if that makes sense.

If your mind is consumed with the fear of something
happening you are basically living it twice, if it actually 
does occur.

 So I guess I am TRYING not to worry
but rather be super prepared with things 
that will make the plane ride go smoother.

We have a 6 hour trip, we will need some 
prayers, luck and VODKA for sure.

Super worth it even if it goes terribly,
soon we will be in MEXICO!!! YAY!

Adventures in Potty Training...

Image
I began potty training Ava right around the time she turned one. I broke out the potty and began encouraging away. She faked interest in the beginning but soon it became apparent that the child was a little hopeless, to say the least. Throughout the year that followed I realized that this strong willed child would need a little more time, as well as mom backing the heck off. Before she turned two I came across a blog a mom was writing who made a bold statement of parents simply being lazy if they aren't potty training their kids very quickly. I was so mad about when I read that but also felt like maybe she was right all at the same time. It motivated me to simply take away Ava's diapers and sort of force her into being ready. I spent the entire day encouraging her as she had accident after accident. She managed to pee in her potty about 4 times and everywhere else about 347 times. I was so stressed out, so was she. At one point she peed on the floor and looked up at me
