Beachy

We haven't been to the beach in a million years
so even though we could only go for one night
we were super excited to go.  

I warned Ava that it was likely the weather would
not allow us to actually get down in the sand but
that we would of course still have so much fun.

But seriously?  Check this out:
 It was raining at home when we left!!  : )

I can't stand graffiti!  It makes me mad.  But for some
reason this totally cracked me up when I saw it today:
 I think this was little Norah's first time as a walker
getting down & dirty in the sand.  She LOVED IT.

 My Momma
 Chris
Norah, taking it all in.
 Ava was so busy playing I had to threaten her
life to get a photo out of her.  She apparently doesn't
take me too seriously since this is the best smile I got.
 The girls, snuggled up in a hole, playing.


 D'Auna & Alayah, resting.
 We weren't prepared to be able to go in the sand at all,
Norah was freshly bathed and jammied up but it was just
too nice out to NOT let her play!  : )
 Chris dug a giant hole burrowing under a log. 
Ava crawled through it several times, it made me 
 claustrophobic just watching.

 Me & my Ava girl.
Norah found the whole experience so relaxing she
insisted on laying down in the sand.  

Oh well, there is always another bath around the corner...

It's so nice to have beach weather!  
Perfect day!!

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...
