Well, I don't have many photos and videos to share this week since Lucy has been wearing nothing but her birthday suit much of the
I was just about to give up the potty training effort yesterday when she decided that she would stay dry for two straight days and has successfully pottied a couple of times since then. She even stayed dry the entire time we went into DC today to attend the Folk Life Festival. She is being rewarded with jelly beans and stickers on her sticker chart and gets to read one of the cards that her family and friends have sent to celebrate her potty training success. She will occasionally ask me if "Momma is proud" which is so sweet I feel a bit guilty every time she asks- of course I'm proud of her! I think the book "Once Upon A Potty" has really helped as well since she talks about the main character "Prudence" a whole lot and told me that Prudence was really happy and proud of her pottying accomplishments as well.
Back to the Folk Life Festival. So if you have never been, it would be a fun time to visit one summer in the future. They choose 3 different cultures from around the world each year and then bring in the food, crafts, dance, music and businesses that make that culture so unique and share them for all to see on the National Mall. This year they are celebrating Northern Ireland, Mekong, and Virginia. Lucy loved the bluegrass music in the Virginia tent and we all loved the ham and bisquits! Lucy also played the drums in the Mekong
We are looking at several weeks of pool time, birthday parties and hopefully soaking up as much Taylor and Coulter time that we can before they head back to school in August.
