No-No's Week


Noah often refers to himself in third person as "No-No." It's pretty funny. He spent the last week with Grandpa and Grandma Barnes riding tractors and going to the post office. Marci attended four "hell-ish" days at a Great Expectations workshop in Lawton. It was way too much touchy-feely stuff for my taste, but I did meet some decent people and did a little networking. It also put me in the mood to get ready to go back to school. So I've been stocking up on cheap things I can use in the classroom. Good times.
The big news around here is that Noah has been using the potty!!!!! Hooray. He's had one wet pull-up in the a.m. and one wet accident since the fourth of July. He's been a real superstar with the number one. The number two, however, is another subject. He tries but it hasn't worked out for him yet. Good news is that he tries. So he will get there soon. Once he gets it together, he has been promised a "park" for the backyard (swingset/fort).
It's kind of weird that the celebrations in my life have been reduced to the bowel movement of others.
