Drive-By...

Hi!!!! I'm able to do a quick drive-by post, yay! We are not entirely functional as the computer is still missing its keyboard - but we can work around that for now. Daddy will be using the computer for work for the next few days (I can already hear him explaining why the insides are all exposed...) so I won't have access for a while again after tonight. I wanted to post a little update as to what KK is up to. The answer is being two!!!! She is so much fun, and very hard to keep up with. Besides climbing into bathtubs fully clothed (the story was that Daddy sent her up for her bath while I was running the water - I stepped into another room to get a phone number and she just jumped right in. Scary! Thank goodness I found her quickly!) she is also climbing up on the kitchen table to smell flowers and get into other mischief. Because of my computer woes, I haven't downloaded the picture of her putting on "lip gloss" with a black Sharpie marker...

She loves to dress up in various cowboy hats (ALL hats are cowboy hats) and push her Mickey collection around in her baby stroller. She still holds conferences with her toy friends and has started lecturing to them. She stands in front of them and talks away. So cute!
She and Mickey are getting potty trained together, without much success - but I really haven't been trying very hard. Speaking of that, here is my top-five list of reasons why I am not too serious about potty training:

5. KK thinks Mickey always has to go potty too - but instead, he usually goes swimming. Ew.
4. Sometimes I can't get her to sit on the potty without screaming.
3. Sometimes I can't get her to get off of the potty without screaming.
2. I just don't understand the need to grab the rim of every toilet while sticking your whole head in the bowl to say "See! I did it!!!"
1. Public restrooms. (Combine that with #2, and I'll wait to train her until she's 10 thankyouverymuch!)

Grandma and Grandpa K, along with some close family friends, are coming to visit on Wednesday, so it's going to be a fun week! Hopefully we'll be able to update more frequently soon. And to my blogger-friends...I am keeping up with you, sorry I haven't been able to comment lately...I'll be back!

oh my, so cute!!!! I love her conference! I can only imagine what she is saying to them.

My best potty training trick was waking my son first thing in the morning (or from a nap) and sitting him on the potty immediately. It requires some planning (and waking a sleeping babe..eep!) so that your child doesnt have clothes that are difficult to remove. Most kids need to pee right when they wake up so if you can catch them before they do so in their diaper its an easy way to help them make the connection between a very full bladder and using the potty.

Yay, you are back!

Too cute with Mickey and crew...

We aren't having much luck with potty either, she has started to tell me when she wants to go though - unfortunately it's RIGHT after she just did. Good luck with yours!

Who'd a thunk that potty training would be so dang hilarious! What a cutie!
