So far we've had an excellent holiday season. We spent Christmas up with Andrea's parents by Baltimore and tomorrow we're headed down to Florida to spend New Year's with my family - they are just too excited! This is a picture of her holiday outfit from our excellent neighbors Rosella and her daughters.
I guess the big new news these days is our adventures into potty training, or, more appropriately, Adelais' interest and pleasure in using her potty. A couple of weeks ago she became very interested when Andrea or I were using the bathroom, so we got her a little potty to sit next to ours. We explained that the big one was ours and the little one was hers. One day before her bath I asked her if she wanted to sit on her potty and she did, but she didn't do anything. Though, and this was very common at the time, as soon as I stood her in her bath she started pee-ing. So, quickly and lightly, I scooped her up and set her on her potty. Of course, she stopped pee-ing, but resumed once I told her that there, on her potty, she could go. Well, since then she has more and more used her potty. Now before and after her bath she uses it and usually when we're changing her diaper she wants to sit on the potty and go alittle bit more. And over the last couple of days she has asked to go sit on the potty and go pee even though her diaper is still dry. We're not pushing it at all, just waiting for her to take the lead, which, to no one's surprise, she is. : )
