Yeah Yeah…so it’s been a while. We are just plugging along here. School and work for Brian, chillin’ at home for Pam and Serra~V~. I have been busy getting myself organized. The scrapbooks are almost ready for scrapping, although I will wait a few months until all the holiday pictures from outside sources make their appearance. I let the all the paperwork that needs filing get out of hand and it has been put back under control, with all the tax documents ready to confuse me. Sewing projects are all done. We manage a walk most days.
As we speak young Serra has pee-peed on the potty for the very first time, and Saturday she did her first official potty poop. I know that this excites you all. For me the prospect of no more diapers is enough to encourage this behavior. Dark Chocolate Hershey Kisses is the reward lately, although I may have to step it down when the occasions become more frequent.
A few weeks ago we found a lake. Lake Piru, about 16 miles away from us. It is not exactly beautiful but it is a lake. Here it is with us posing without the use of a tripod or photographer.

Heys guys! I am glad to hear all is well with you. Hope school is going good for you bro. Tell Serra I’m proud of her.
awesome pottier! Cool scenery too..its looks pretty in the picture atleast…and thats all that really counts right?
Any lake is pretty if it’s blue. Way to go young Serra. Keep poopin & you’ll soon have a severe addiction to chocolate.
Pam you look fabulous!!–maren
When did you find time to vacation? pc
Potty training. Oh how I miss those days! NOT!!! The next six months are the best exercise you will ever get. No diaper means the mad dash for mom to avoid the no diaper protection fears until a potty can be found. And if Serra hears how loud some mall potties are, she may do like some little girls I know and simply refuse to use them. They know you will eventually clean out their pants for them!
I may just let her stew. Right now we are just trying to get her to understand the concept and that there is another way.
It was hardly a vacation, just an afternoon drive on a saturday.
