Wow, last post in November?

I have not been keeping up with this at all.  Let's see what happened since then:

• We took a trip to Phoenix in December.  Ray made Leah a wonderful play kitchen for Christmas out of a TV stand.  It's gorgeous, and something she'll treasure for a long time.
• Ray decided to be a stay at home daddy to our girl, which is working out wonderfully.  It also means no daycare expenses, which is good because we're adding another little girl to our family to November. :)
• Our first little girl turned two in July.  Can't believe it's been that long.
• In August, we went to Wisconsin.  We visited a couple beaches.  Leah loved exploring.  We also went to the Milwaukee zoo, where she was VERY obsessed with the elephants.

Hopefully, I'll do better from now on.  What we're up to now: the beginning stage of potty training (eeeeek), finishing up Leah's big girl room, and getting ready for the new addition.

Potty training is okay.  She's been resistant for a few days, so we're trying not to push too hard.

Leah loves her big girl room, but I'm not ready to take her out of the crib yet.  Just the idea makes me nervous.  Maybe she'll do better than I think, like she did with weaning off her pacifier in June.

We've done very little for the new addition.  I bought the first thing I've ever bought for her today, at almost 30 weeks pregnant: a cute sleep n play that was one sale.  And I actually took the time to go through Leah's old stuff and see what we can re-use.  That's progress, right?
