Family fun in the forest.

 On Saturday we decided to hike Cascade Head.
It's something that has been on our To Do list forever.


 I love these flowers.  
They were all over the place up here.



 It was SUPER muddy.  This was the only 
not-so-awesome thing about our hike.
 Almost to the top.
 I assured her she washes up well.

 I love how Norah holds on the whole time, so cute.


 Such a view!









 Really making an effort to get IN some of our
family photos : )

 Ava is so pretty.



 Ava did great the whole way.  Aside from the mud 
issue she had little to complain about.  Well I'm sure
she did mention being hungry but we NEVER 
go more then a few minutes without hearing that...

Ugh, more mud.  Ava actually lost a shoe in it at 
one point.  That didn't go over so well, not gonna lie.
Can you see Norah?  Peeking over John's shoulder?

Such a perfect day. 
We love doing this kind of stuff, so fun!

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
