Update

A little update on what we have been doing lately...Liana has been potty training. She has her good days and bad days. Right now she is mostly in pull ups, sometimes big girl underwear. No more diapers! We also have transitioned from a small potty, to a seat on the toilet, to now she climbs on the toilet seat by herself.

Tonight was the second night of transitioning her into going directly to her bed at bedtime. Our routine had consisted of her falling asleep on my lap or on her Dora sofa, then I would carry to her crib. That way I could have a little more time to hold her since our schedule is so hectic during the week. Yesterday she went to sleep without any fuss at all!!!! Tonight she cried some before we actually got to the bedroom, but went along with it when we got to her room!!!

I knew that Liana was starting to learn letters at daycare recently; however, today I realized just how much she has been learning.

We were singing a song to teach her how to spell her name, which she likes.

I can't think of anything else tonight. Take care everyone!!!

Friends Visiting



Julie, my traveling partner when I went to China, and her two daughters (Mari had stayed with Liana for a couple of months after I went back to work) came for a visit this weekend. They arrived Friday and left today, Saturday. We were so sad to see them go. Liana made a card for Mario, since he couldn't come for a visit.

First Corn On The Cobb



We had eaten corn on the cob several times previously; however, I had always cut it off the cob for Liana. This time I gave it to her on the cob, and boy did she know how to eat an ear of corn! They must have had it at daycare...and I didn't realize she was eating it that way. She ate almost all of her corn!
