Just Waiting For Spring


Not much to update these days....

Our weeks have been pretty uneventful so there has not been much to blog. I thought I better post something though so everyone knows we're still alive. We are just waiting out these last few weeks of winter looking forward to spring, flowers sprouting up, buds on trees, etc.. and warmer weather.
Our weeks are pretty consistent with two days of playgroups, one morning of making something in the kitchen, one day for shopping and one for staying home to catch up on household chores.
Olivia is growing so fast and learning more everyday. Her hair has grown to about the middle of her back so we do a lot of different things with it. She is talking in sentences very well. Her favorite things to say right now are "what making for dinner tonight Mom?" and when she wants to stall going to bed or keep you from leaving a room she says, "I've got a question!!" and when you ask what her question is she laughs and says, "I doon know".
The potty training has been very frustrating as it is very inconsistent and hit and miss. When I come up with a new bribe she does pretty well but then gets bored with that again and goes back to not using it at all. She has actually told me "I never going use potty chair". Guess that's a two year old for you.
She has been very well behaved in church and shopping and going anywhere so it is hard to get very upset with her when she doesn't listen all the time. We are looking forward to spending more time outside playing and burning up excess energy as soon as this weather straightens out... Stay tuned.
