I took today off from work to a) give me an even longer long weekend and b) to give me 4 days home with little C were we could work on potty training, and we are spending the weekend diaper free.
We have a planned outing tomorrow and well we got an outing today :)
We started without diapers after work last night until bed time, when we diapered her back up.
There were plenty of puddles last night and we never made it to the potty but she does know whats happening.
This morning we jumped right into being diaper free and made it to the toilet all but 3 times, one of those was nap time.
We are trying to get her to be more vocal about letting big C or I know that she is going (next will be telling us before she has to go)
Surprisingly there were no accidents at the Dr. Office, a big shock all things considered.
We are doing a bit of shopping in the morning, although she's been better about telling us she needs to go when we are out.
All in all I would say day 1 went really well.

Emergency Dr. Visit
We had our first emergency Dr. visit this morning.
little C had a good size embedded splinter in her heel, kept crying, wouldn't let me touch it and wouldn't walk on it.
This required an office surgery - yikes.
Not too horrible but she needed a local anesthetic and there was blood. Took about 10 min to remove all of the splinter but they got it all out and put a bandage on her heel.
She was very brave, she did cry but she was mostly mad that she was being held and people were poking at her sore foot.
After we left the procedure room and were checking out, she got a sticker and life was much better :)
She came home a proceeded to nap for 3+ hours until 4:30.
She currently has NASCAR band aids on both feet, but she's resting peacefully.
It may have been hardest on me.
Today was her 3rd non well-baby/ child visit, pretty amazing for a little over two years.

Easter
We have a snowy Easter this year, the ground is mostly free of snow, but it's snowing pretty good right now.
Little C loved Easter. Friday she had a Easter party at school and the Easter Bunny visited and they had an egg hunt. We hid plastic eggs around the house and she was so excited every time she found one. She had 12 eggs to find, 4 were filled with Bunnie cookies, goldfish cracker, raisins or craisins; 4 were empty, 2 had tiny play silks, and the last 2 had play dough. Our Breakfast started with 4 oranges, some blackberries, which we ate while big C made pancakes, from scratch - they were very yummy. We had the pancakes and sausage, of course.
Little C ate the Bunnie cookies that came in some of her eggs too, she was a very hungry girl.
The Easter bunny brought her a bucket filled with all sorts of goodies; safety scissors, a wooden plane, an organic chocolate bunnie and organic jelly beans, a crocheted egg with play silks, the bucket was lined with a huge green play silk.
Little C and big C tended a small bonfire to burn some extra wood we've had lying around, and we colored a few eggs in the afternoon. We all had a wonderful day.

A apple, A apple.....
Little C was chanting this while we prepared lunch today :)
It was so cute
She was playing with alphabet fridge magnets she got for Christmas from Grandma & Grandpa A, but with the letter C, hen asked if she wanted to play with the A, she said "no, C"
So we think she is starting to recognize some letters.

Words and Phrases
Little C has picked up "Ready, Set, Go" She really likes "ready" Which started while watching snowmobiling videos and really got her attention skiing.
This morning she requested to go to the Basement with big C, using basement for the first time.
Little C also talked to both of her grandmothers on the fun, she didn't say much, she mostly replied with a very enthusiastic yes or once she said fast (talking about sledding and snowmobiling with big C)
Last week we had a bit of a warm up, it got into the 40's, and while watching the weather she yelled at the weather man every time he was talking about the forecasted temperatures. "No...Noooooo nonononono!!!!" over and over. I figure it was a coincidence but it sure was funny.
Love to all

New Word
Little C learned a new word this weekend!!!
STUCK
We were watching big C on the snowmobile, he was packing down some trails so he could take out little C for some fun and he got stuck in the deep snow out back. So I pointed this little fact out to little C and used the word stuck in a sentence once or twice.
As big C cleaned up after getting unstuck, he stopped in close to the same place to grab his come-along and ropes and little C asked "stuck?" I explained what he was doing.
Time went by, the played outside, went snowmobiling, came in had a snack etc.
Later in the afternoon I hear a little cry for help, that was quickly getting distressed...once I tracked down little C she looked at me and said "arm stuck" with a disgusted look/ tone. She had gotten her arm stuck in a drawer. Well at least we know she figured out what the word meant.
