It's amazing how time flies. I know people always say that and yet, I don't think I really ever experienced how true it was until I had a child. A lot has happened in the past month and every day I blink and wonder where the day before went.
Alanna is truly a 'big girl' now and no longer wears Pull-Ups even at night. We still wake to the occasional small holler of 'Wipe Me!!!' from the bathroom, but I'm ok with that. It's such a weird feeling to finally be at that fully potty trained stage where I don't have two drawers taken up with diaper related stuff.
We got hit with our first 'Are We There Yet???' this past weekend when I took Alanna to Morris to see her cousins and her Grandma Jackie. Luckily it was only two occurences and not repeated the whole drive.
Alanna is doing fantastic with her swimming lessons and I think we're just one lesson (maybe it will happen tonight!) away from her going under water on her own. She's sooooo close and just loves being in the water. I took her to the Grand Rios waterpark over the 4th of July weekend and she has not stopped talking about it since. We'll need to go back again sometime this summer with Daddy along so that Mommy can just float in the Lazy River for a while.

In Hot Springs? That's a long drive for only 2 "Are we there yet?" I'm sure I said it more often! We drove through Hot Springs earlier this week on our "way" back from Yellowstone.
ReplyDeleteOther Grandma. This one (Jeb's Mom) lives in Morris MN so it's only a 2.5 hour drive total. I no longer drive to Hot Springs...wayyyy too far although if airfare keeps going up I may have to start considering it!
