I love shopping, AKA leaving the house.

I figured I would write about shopping since I am 
missing leaving the house, ever.  Well that's a lie, we
did go to Ava's swimming class and Norah's "well
check up" which holds a bit of irony since she really 
isn't well.  

So anyhow, these pictures are from last week, way 
back when my little baby was happy and not quite so 
needy.  (don't get me wrong, still super cute, just grating
on my nerves)  

Look at what a relaxing place Costco is!!
They even provide lots of appetizers.
They do however need to work on their beverages,
I don't think they have ever offered me a margarita
or wine or anything fun like that EVER!!

 Doesn't  she look like she needs a drink with a straw & an umbrella?
 
 So anyhow, last week when we were at Costco, 
Ava came across this GINORMOUS moose and 
of course, she wanted it, badly.

To my mother's shock I told Ava she could have it.
It was all hers!
With one condition...
...as long as she could pick it up, and carry it, without 
dragging it, the entire time we shopped.  

Guess what?

The moose has been reunited with the rest of it's family
in a giant box full of other moose that I would hope no one
would ever buy, ever.

 What the heck would anyone do with that 
thing anyway???

I really hope we get to leave the house again soon, 
I miss torturing Ava out and about. : )

Adventures in Potty Training...

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
