Audrey's doing a great job now going potty! Having a free-standing potty at Angela's has made a huuuuuge difference for her (she just didn't like going on the big one!). Having someone take her often all day is a great help, too. Yesterday after we came home she went potty and I put a pull-up on her (which she loved) and she was able to keep it dry until bedtime - she even wanted out of the bath to go potty!

She shocked me on Monday night by knowing who Tinkerbell is... I was carrying her to her crib, and all of a sudden she was like "ba ba bell! ba ba bell!" I had no clue what she meant, but she was pointing to the shelves on her wall. So I took her over there and she reached out and grabbed a Tinkerbell toy that had been on her first birthday cake. Then I realized what she'd been saying. I guess she's learning a lot from Georgia, an almost-three year old also at Angela's.

I asked Aud yesterday how her day was.
"Good."
I asked her who she'd played with.
"Orja (Georgia), Nonner (Conner), Audie (Audrey)."
Then I asked her if she'd played with Josie (the baby).
"No."
She cracks me up.

We went to Walmart on Friday evening and bought Conner some new tennis shoes. It was late when we got home so he didn't get a chance to wear them, but when he put them on Saturday, he was very happy with how well they worked. His shoes are "very fast and very jumpiful".
