A Lesson in Sharing

I took Lucy to the doctor yesterday to get her 15 month shots. Afterwards, I decided she deserved a strawberry milkshake, so we stopped by McDonald's. I asked her to 'share' with mommy every once in awhile, in order to control the amount of strawberry milkshake she was consuming, of course. At one point it was mommy's turn to take a drink and Lucy grabbed the milkshake and said 'Share!' I guess mommy got a lesson in learning how to share! :)

Potty Training

So, Lucy's daycare has been working on potty training the kids in her class as of late. They told us that Lucy has been really interested and loves it when it's her turn to sit on the potty. So, I decided to get her a potty of her own at home.

Now let's get this straight, we have not officially started potty training her. We've just got it around in case she decides she wants to try it out.

On Saturday night, Granny and Papaw (my mom and dad) were watching Lucy for us while we went out to dinner and wouldn't you know it, she went on the potty!! Granny said she had just finished giving her a bath and Lucy kept pointing at the potty. So, Granny put her on the potty and she did her little shiver and then she went potty! I thought about taking pictures, but David wouldn't let me, so you've been spared a picture of Lucy's first trip to the potty.

Anyway, I guess Lucy has decided that it's time to start potty training! As a side note, Lucy has asked to go to the potty several times since then, but she hasn't actually gone potty, so she's not a potty einstein or anything! We'll keep you updated!

We had a wonderful vacation in Naples! It did rain for about 5 days straight, so that's why there aren't a lot of beach pics. We spent a lot of our time shopping and eating out! We hope to do it again soon!

Fun in the Sun

We met David's parents at Columbian park in Lafayette a few weeks ago. If you haven't been there, you really should check it out. They have several different playgrounds, one for each age group, a train, a zoo, a water park, and a couple of rides that are good for little ones, probably ages 3 - 6. Here a couple of pictures that we took while we were there:
