Micah has been sick this week, so today we decided to get out of the house. We were getting cabin fever.I told them we would go to the used book store and they could each pick out a book. We have one of the best used bookstores I've ever been to. Its called Recycled Books
Abigail chose The Fairy and the Missing Wand. Micah chose (with a little help from me) Curious George.
When we got home, we noticed that the Curious George book had an inscription that said, "To Micah." Kind of creepy. What are the odds?

Abigail's First Date with Daddy
She had to put on "lipstick" (which is actually just lip gloss)...
She also wanted to do her nails...
She is so excited. This will be her first movie at a real theater. (Actually she went with me to see the 2nd Pirates of the Caribbean movie - she was 2 months old and slept in the Bjorn the whole time).
Fun with daddy in the car.
Her very first movie ticket.
Have to get the $14 popcorn, M&M's and sprite.
Gene said she was completely enthralled the whole time.

Potty Training
I decided to give potty training another try on Tuesday. I prepared myself for a long and painful process since our other three attempts were unsuccessful. She started "school" in the fall and will be 3 in October, so I knew it had to be done. Much to my surprise and elation, after only one accident, she went on her training potty five times on Monday! Yesterday she had a couple of accidents, but then she was successful for the rest of the day. Last night, at 7:00 (which is bedtime for us), she ran to her little potty and started saying "Oh no! Oh no!" She sat down and got a really funny look on her face. I went over to look and see what was going on. In addition to going pee-pee, she had made a nice little deposit. Our deal was that if she went #2 in the potty, she would get ice cream. So, we loaded everyone up in their pajamas and went to Beth Marie's ice cream parlor. She got a kid's chocolate Sunday with marshmallow sauce. I am so thankful and excited for this new stage.

swimming
Last Saturday we decided to go swimming at a friend's pool across town. We had a great time. Here is our video debut....
Abigail gravitated towards the small "beach" area to play in the sand. I think we have a future engineer on our hands.
Micah loved splashing in the water, but was a little tired by this point. He fell asleep about five minutes later and took a nap on a beach towel under our umbrella.
