A Nice Weekend

We had a nice weekend.
Some things got accomplished,
one of which was that my wonderful husband
installed a new window in the kitchen.
This is more exciting then it sounds,
this needed to happen in order to do the counter tops.

We did decided to wait until next month to start tiling.
December is just too crazy busy of a month for a
kitchen remodel. We prefer to do that kind of thing
while we are having a baby : )

Ava got to play with Colton, she loved showing him
all our Christmas stuff. We took the kids to Out of
this World. Then we dropped them back home with
the daddies and Tiffani and I did some Christmas shopping.

I put Ava's very first beloved Graco stroller on Craig's List
I loved that stroller, it was just too darn cute.
Ava had a good time "convincing" the women that came to
look at it to buy it, then she cried when they did.
Ava said it was her favorite stroller ever. I assure
you that I was far more attached to it then she,
but that girl has to add her dramatics to everything.

I broke even on the whole thing and bought her
a new car seat. She is super thrilled about that
so maybe I didn't traumatize her as much as she
was letting on.

Starting to reconsider the bunk bed idea.
This girl is a klutz and she can barely stay in the bed
she has now.
My new plan is just a twin with some built in
drawers below it. Maybe bunk beds when both
girls are older. I think I have read 5 Little Monkeys
too many times to really trust kids anyway...

I remember you telling me (many times lol), how much you loved that stroller. Good job giving it the heave-ho. I feel like I have a lot of baby items I'd like to get rid of, even (or especially) knowing someone else will be joining us in 6 months

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...
