Potty Training

We have been working on potty training lately...why isn't this an instinctive behavior? Josie loves to sit on her potty, but only because she knows that it means she doesn't have to wear any pants:) So far we have not been successful at making peepee or poopoo in the potty, and we now have a streaker in the house:) Oh, well...she'll get it eventually, right?

Mother's Day From Hell

Yesterday was a day I will most certainly never forget! My mom had been in the hospital all week...kidney failure and labored breathing. The doctors finally had her under control and she was going to be released! What good news on Mother's Day:) Rodney, Josie and I were on our way to see her at 9:30 yesterday morning, when I tripped in the parking lot (while carrying my sweet baby). We went down HARD. Josie screamed and cried...I cried...poor Rodney wasn't sure what to do...So we ran up to my Mom's hospital room, told her what happened and rushed Josie down to the ER. We had Xrays done confirming that I had broken my baby's elbow...can you hear my heart breaking as well?...then we had to be transferred to Children's Medical Center to be evaluated by a Pediatric Orthopedist. We were there until 5:00pm. They took more Xrays which showed that the break wasn't as serious as originally thought (thank God) and they put a temporary cast on her little arm and sent us home. We have to be reevaluated next week. Happy Mothers' Day! Here are some pictures of my little trooper in her cast and sling...It's amazing how resilient babies are!
