Today the kids were supposed to go back to school, but because our van is not the best in the snow, and the roads are a mess. I called in today. It has been a nice day so far. We 'played' school. We practiced our letters, and some numbers. We helped Catie write her name (get her ready for Kindergarten in September!)
And yesterday, Caroline woke up dry. So, I asked her if she wanted to go pee on the toilet. Yes she says. I plop her on the toilet, run the water. Leave. I listen from outside of the door. And 'tinkle' she went. We high
fived, we gave her a piece of chocolate. She did again. Then we went to
IKEA. She wore a diaper. She pooped in the diaper. Then little poop in the toilet later in the day. Yay Caroline.
So, she is making the connection, now we sit back and wait for her to tell us when she is ready. She felt pretty proud. We are proud of her.
Anyways yesterday we went to
IKEA. We took MIL, and the kids. All nine of us walked through the whole store. We were looking at beds. I am considering putting my two gals (Catie and Caroline in a double or queen size bed together) The kids were well behaved for the most part, and they enjoyed climbing all over the beds. So, MIL bought them
McDonalds (taken home to eat---didn't want to push our luck)
Anyways, it has been a nice (unexpected) weekend and day.
