Tomorrow is the big day.

Or that would be today, as you are reading this. 

My little baby starts school today, sniff, sniff.
(These pictures are from Tuesday, we had a meeting with her teacher)
 
She is super excited and I suppose I've had plenty of time to mourn our freedom, and maybe even our Summer that has come to pass against my will.

But enough of that.  SHE IS SOOOO EXCITED.  And I am happy for her.  If it takes 3 hours a day, 5 days a week to make her super stoked about growing up and all the things than I must give her that.  
Love this girl, my baby, she's growing up.

I can't fight it so I might as well embrace it! 
I hope she has the best day ever.

 This picture made me laugh.  Ava took my phone and that she wanted to take a picture of Norah in front of the sign too.  I sat on the other side of the bushes on the bench and just listened to her *attempt* to get her shot, "Norah, turn around!  Now Norah, you need to turn around.  Norah I need you to turn around.  NORAH TURN AROUND!!  Smile!! Look at me, eyes on me!  Look what I'm putting on top of my head!!"  

This went on and on, and this was the best shot she got.  I had to chuckle, I felt her pain.  : )

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...
