It's Potty Time!

This has been a fun week. Yesterday we took Owen (and evan!) to the Early Works Museum with cousin Lauren. They get along soooo well, they take after their mamas. They will be laughing hysterically over nothing in no time at all. They got to build things with blocks. play with ducks in a giant tub of water, and make pretend food in the most gigantic and heavy (DANGEROUS!) cast iron skillets and bowls. It was a nice day and I look forward to getting them together again soon. 

In other news, Owen started potty training himself last Saturday! This is something he is doing completely on his own terms. He started saying "go pee pee" and the rest is history. Starbuck took him to the bathroom, he sat down on his potty and did what he needed to do. He's done it several times a day since then. We never ask him if he needs to go, he tells us. Apparently he thinks potty training before 2 is the thing to do. 

For the last several days Owen has been asking about New Orleans. Apparently he had a great time the last time we were there. We are due for another trip so we may just grant his wish and head there next week. 

First we have to get through this weekend. We are attempting to have a yard sale Saturday morning. We'll see how well that goes, with us having to get up at the crack of dawn...
