This week Stel has decided she is ready to use the big girl potty. She started, on her own, taking herself in to go to the bathroom in her cute princess potty that plays music and applauds each successful attempt. I have done nothing at all, and we have not have one accident. She still sleeps in a diaper, and if we go in the car I use a pull up, but otherwise she has potty trained herself this week. So year, that was easy. We had tried a couple times (for a couple hours) to get her to sit down and go potty like her brother, but I guess she just needed to do it in her own time. Perhaps this will be a pattern we see in her life for years to come. :) She is definitely showing more personality, opinion, and participation in things. Pushing Hudson's buttons regularly, and expressing herself more clearly all the time. Just this last week she stopped saying "wawa" and started saying "water" :( She's also now needing ICE in her water. Oh boy.
About a week ago the Jones came through LA for about 24 hours before flying out to Thailand where they will be living for the next two years!! We were lucky enough to see them during their layover! The girls (twins) are 4, Hudson 5, Quentin will be 6 next month, and Stel is 2 1/2. Such great, life long friends - we will look forward to hearing of their adventures overseas!
Andy and I got to go see Wilco at the Greek Theatre last week, and brought home shirts for the kids. They will definitely grow up knowing who one of our favorite musical groups is!
