It was a wonderful break over the Holidays! This next new year promises to bring many changes. The first of which is beginning on the journey of potty training. Since Thanksgiving, Izzy has been pretty interested in the potty. Dan and I haven't been pushing the issue to much, but we've been talking with her about it. However over break, Izzy decided that she wanted to sit on the potty. SO....I sat her on the potty. We sat several times just to get the 'feel' of it...I guess that's the best way to put it. Then, out of the blue...she went potty! Over break she's had successful #1 and #2 sits, but nothing consistent. It's early though, so we're still not pushing it. She seems to go through streaks.....her most recent thing is to tell us that she's either going potty or has to go, then when I ask if she wants to sit on the potty she looks at me for a beat and says, 'Noooooo.' Eh, whatever. ;) We'll get her there. Isabelle is even starting to tell the sitter when she's in process of going....even with all her playmates and distractions around. Here's hoping that 2010 will see a break in diapers!
The only trouble with the break was a persistent cold that Izzy had pretty much since we came back from Iowa. Lots of green boogers and Kleenexes. You know it's bad when your 21 month old comes to you to have you wipe her nose instead of the usual. The usual of course being Izzy running away from me shrieking with glee when she sees me coming for her with a Kleenex.
Here are some misc pictures from over break.
What you see here is an entire travel pack of Kleenexes that Izzy managed to get her hands on....she used 1/4 of one of them. The rest? Yea, perfectly clean...if a little rumpled.

We were all able to relax with the time off!
