Do you Pee Pee in the potty?

Funny story. Over the weekend Matt was so great and told me to take a break from the kids since I'd been "house trapped" due to Ethan's tonsillectomy. So I jumped at the chance and enjoyed some "alone time" at the grocery store. While I was gone Matt told me that Sadie said the cutest thing.

See, recently Sadie has showed a lot of interest in using the potty, like a big girl. So I have been taking her potty and she has gone several times!!! I always immediately clap and praise her saying, "Good job Sadie! You go pee pee on the potty! YAY Sadie!" Followed by lots of clapping and cheering.

Well, Matt went on the potty and when he came out of the bathroom Sadie said, "Daddy go pee pee in the potty? OH, YAY DADDY!!" And she jumped and clapped and clapped. Matt said it was the funniest thing he'd seen in a long time. What a cute little girl we have!!!


OK, so serious apologies here...I have dropped off the "blog world" for several days. My computer does not like me. I have been dealing with some pretty crazy hard drive stuff with all of my picture files, and let's just say there's been a lot of tears, stress, and some not nice words.
I have no idea why my pictures from my last post did not work. It might have something to do with the fact that all my pictures are gone from my hard drive. I'm not sure. I think I can fix the problem, but just hang in there ok readers? (anyone out there???) I know it's hard without lots of little pictures, but hey, I have great news....

Comcast is coming to install the internet tomorrow! Hey if you call and talk to them long enough, they will magically find some "special" out there that's almost as cheap as dialup! Ok, not quite. I guess with taxes and fees we'll be paying $14 more per month for phone and internet than we are now. But I thought that was a pretty good deal. We still don't have cable or satellite TV. I think we'll just wait for the signal to drop next year and then just turn our TV into a giant "digital picture frame".

So if you can stand to wait a couple of days, I think my blog will be filled to the brim with pictures! No more 20 minute per picture wait time on uploads! What will I do with all my extra time? Sleep.

I knew you'd have to give in to fast internet. I cannot imagine blogging without it! I can tell that you like blogging, and therefore I deduced, correctly, that eventually fast internet would become a personal necessity!!

Plus (here's a justification) it will be important in maintaining your business blog! (I'm good at justifying spending money! It's a talent.)

Ooh, good luck with your hard drive. That happened to me a couple weeks ago. I nearly had a mental breakdown! Mine did end up well...so that's a little hope that your's will end up the same! Good luck!

I'm so excited for you to get your fast internet! It's the best thing EVER! I hope all your computer issues get resolved, though! What a pain! I wish the pictures on the last post would have worked...I would love to see Sadie in action! You deserve a nap! And I love that Sadie got excited for Matt going pee pee in the potty! Yay Matt!

Technological advances are always on the fore front of my mind...that is why I refuse to pay for internet when at work I have the fastest around. Oh and tell Matt good job on the potty use. I think it is about time he was rewarded.

I hope you get all your pictures back -- sometimes modern tech. is such a pain. You love it but sometimes you just want to scream at it ! ! !

And I loved Sadie's bathroom experience with Matt -- it's always nice to be rewarded for your accomplishments ! ! !
