Weekend in Review

We are on our way to potty training. E is very excited about using the potty - as in he likes to sit on it and then pee his underwear moments later....... :( He is getting it - hopefully weekends with Mike and I aren't setting back Noelle's progress. You know he's gone when we hear "Ethan hot" followed up by "Ethan cold" mmm-hmmm that's the feeling buddy - recognize it earlier pelase. "Monies" work well as bribery - better than stickers. Who knew I'd be spending the night with Elmo in my bed...

We spent Saturday morning at http://jump-street.com. Ethan loved it - once he warmed up to it. and of course didn't want to leave. He clings to the last thing he does or person he sees. The rest of the day was a chorus of "more bouncy-house" and "bouncy-house again"

I had a great night on Saturday with Molly. Fabulous dinner at Vita! Great portions and really hearty winter food (unexpected by both of us). Winter lasagna for her and pork tenderloin for me. Plus the Strawberry Field Martini that Molly ordered was to die for. I'll have to remember to make it the signature summer drink: Strawberry vodka, muddled fresh strawberries and champagne. not to sweet - and very fresh! Then to "The Garage" for our friend Ivory's birthday party. Been quite a while since I had an ID check AND a hand stamp. We were all remembering the days when you'd lick the back of your friend's hand and press your stamp onto their hand to get them in the bar. Or never wash them off and use them as a status symbol - ala Molly. All the pg ladies looked so cute! (but thankfully I'm not one of them - yet).

Yummy baby shower on Sunday - ate to much (of course) and ended up with a great nap while Ethan and Mike napped as well. Nice and quiet Sunday - can't beat it.

Mom is coming to visit over Easter and has her tickets! Yay!
