Piper has been saying "I want that" to every toy commercial she sees - imagine that? Well for the past few weeks I've mentioned that she should remember the things she "wants" for Christmas ideas. This evening she brought me a piece of paper and a marker and told me to write some things down for her. I didn't make any suggestions, just dictated her wishes. She'd like some games and something else and the sweetest things she wished for was a trip to Chuck E Cheese and to stay with Grandma and Papa and go to Florida. What a little sweetie.
Potty training?????
Tuesday, September 23, 2008
So I got a wild hair to try out some potty training today just to see if Reagan would respond. We have never had cleaner floors, they have been fully scrubbed a few times today but just a few minutes ago Reagan (while actually wearing a diaper) sat on her potty and looked upset so I took her diaper off and she sat back down and pee'd a little. Wow! Now if I can buckle down and actually follow through maybe there is hope for early training. We will see, this is NOT my favorite thing to do but I am hopefully that I can give it a good try while she's in a cooperative stage.
We're in trouble now

I'll have to get a picture but Reagan has started climbing. She figured out that she could climb onto the kitchen chairs today and help herself to Piper's food (after she's done eating her own). With her new skills of course there are new slips and bumps. Her forehead finally healed from bumping Piper's dresser and then she tumbled down a few of the stairs just a few days ago and got a new goose egg and bruise.
I have been telling Piper for months now that once Reagan can climb we are in trouble, she won't be able to keep any of her things out of Reagan's reach. Now she's going to have to really make sure her markers and crayons are put away. More work for both Piper and Mommy.
Another beautiful day of fun!!

The girls and I decided to enjoy the gorgeous weather today. Mom invited us out to her house and we went to lunch and then over to the park and beach to play. We played in the sand for an hour and then headed over to the park, we were outside all day and it was so nice. On the way back to Mom's we stopped at Licks for some ice cream to complete our day. Thanks Mom, we all had a lot of fun!
When we showed up there was a bulldozer leveling out the beaches, he left mounds and tracks, perfect to play in!
this is the prettiest park with the lake in the background
Reagan was in rock heaven!
"funny face" had to come out for pictures
all 3 of us enjoyed the seesaw
No lifeguards were on duty so Piper and Grandma took a turn - Piper was terrified to be up that high and wanted down immediately, she's white knuckling it here
