Adventures in Potty Training

Well who knew that "tighty - whities" could be so darn cute!! Potty training a little boy is the next installment in my learning curve of raising a little boy. It's certainly interesting! Although many folks have told me how difficult potty training a boy can be, I've been pleasantly surprised to find just the opposite. He has been very willing and able to work on this big step in his life (with the help of M&M's of course!). Let's hope he continues to make great progress!

Hannah's New Glasses

A few weeks into the school year, Hannah began complaining about having trouble seeing the board at school. I was a little surprised (I'd had her checked last school year), but Paul reminded me that with both of us having poor eyesight, chances were pretty good at least one of our three would have trouble. Anyway, the exam found Hannah was very farsighted and a few days later we went and picked up her new glasses. She was AMAZED at the difference they made and constantly moved the glasses up and down to compare her sight. It's been a smooth transition and I'm so proud of how Hannah has embraced her new self. I think she looks absolutely beautiful!
