It feels like a dud morning. Lisey and I tried to go to story time, we even got ready really fast and hurried to the library, and then the librarian that does storytime was sick. No storytime. So we went to Walmart. My brain felt broken. They forgot to take off the no stealing thing on big hero 6, so I had to take it back and get that removed. Plus I wanted to get some things to make a low-fat chicken pot pie. I must've ran from one end of the store to the other six or seven times. I just kept forgetting things on either side. Then as I was checking out I forgot to pay for the ice scraper so I had to go all the way back in and pay for it. Like I said broken brain. 

We did get some cookies for Lisey as her potty treat. In fact she's sitting on the toilet right now and I'm sitting next to her hoping that she'll go potty soon. At least she's trying, which is a lot better than what we had been doing previously.... Namely running away anytime I mentioned the potty. I guess we'll see what happens. She has the iPad so at least she's not trying to escape. Gotta love potty training.

Lisey loves loves loves her brother! She wants to hold him all the time. She very much treats him like a doll...which has both its pros and cons...

Well the potty time went ok...after an hour of sitting on the potty Lisey went pee. I was so proud and I think she was proud too. She got her potty cookie and lots of claps. Then I gave her tons to drink and let her watch Diego while I fed Lincoln. That was a mistake. She had an accident (I foolishly had put panties on her). It was totally my fault, too much water and too much time. After the accident, I put a pull up on her. Then after we picked up Ella from school she went again in the potty! Way to go lisey!

No pee in the diaper yet. I think I'm going to just have to train myself to remember to put her on the potty every 30 mins to an hour or so. 

Lisey is at home with joan and I'm at gymnastics with Ella. Lincoln is napping at home too. I'm all by myself. It feels weird but nice. I wish I could take a nap or paint or do something useful. I'm usually holding a baby so when I'm not I feel like I need to get something done. It is nice to watch Ella's gymnastics without chasing anyone though. 

 Ella is such a goof. She's dancing around and making silly silly facing while she is waiting her turn to do her gymnastics trick. All the other girls are just waiting boringly. That is one thing Ella is not. Boring. She is so much like Nick. Very funny and very silly. Full of life, fun and laughter. She is just like her daddy. In fact lisey is a goof too. Yes... There is never a dull moment with Ella, nick and lisey around. My life is full of fun and craziness!
