PTing

PTing, as in Potty Training. We were pretty much waiting on Olivia to show us she was ready to start potty training. When Avry showed up wearing panties this week, Olivia decided she was ready! We currently have 5 (yes, FIVE) kiddos potty training at the daycare right now. She's doing OK. The first day I pushed it, she used the potty 5 times. Today, she stood right beside the potty and peed in the floor. Definitely a work in progress! We still use diapers when we're not at home, but we're getting there!

Over Labor Day weekend, we drove up to Mount Evans. It's rated the #2 attraction in Denver right now and it's only open Memorial day through Labor Day, so this was really our last chance for this year! Olivia has almost given up her afternoon nap (although I'm fighting it!), but she still falls asleep in the car. She slept almost the whole way there and was a little grumpy when we arrived at the lake halfway up the mountain. I was soooooo excited! Look at this scenery:



I had great visions of Olivia leaning on that fence with a sweet smile. However, after her nap, this is what I got:



Ha! She was extremely attached to Daddy that day, so we walked around the lake and tried to get her in a better mood.



She perked up when she noticed some ducks and I got a few good shots:









Michael's friend at work got her a Power Wheels for her birthday. She and Avry love it! Like most toys they both love, they fight over it. They hit on this today all by themselves:







Olivia even switched and let Avry drive, too! She's doing much better with sharing. Hope you're having a great week!
