John's Parents

Bob & Barbie, two of my favorite people came to visit us this weekend.
I love my in-laws, I am so thankful to have them in our lives..

Ava adores them too.
Check out the cute dress they brought for her:

We had a really nice weekend.
Wine tasting, card playing, Spanish coffee drinking, all our usual things.



We took a walk around the duck pond next to the Hillsboro Library.



It is really beautiful there.


Bob couldn't help but pull a few weeds.
That cracks me up. I have zero desire to pick weeds. : )

Ava read 1.5 million books with Grandma.
They made each other giggle.


They played outside.

They wore each other out.

Sadly we had to say our goodbyes this morning. They will head back to Spokane and we will start plotting the next time we can see them. We miss them already. What a lovely time.

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...
