homework or blog post?!?!!?

Obviously the blog post won the titled debate. 

Last Thursday Lexi and I packed up and headed to the cooler weather for the weekend.  I can't express how wonderful it was to be able to spend quality time outside.  It has been a while since we were able to spend more then a couple of minutes outside.  Not to mention the quality moma and papa time we squeezed in. 
This was also our first try at making a long drive in panties.  I have to say it was successful.  I was prepared to make stops if needed but she made it the whole drive with no accidents it was pregnant mommy who had to stop.  She was a little apprehensive about being in the public bathroom at the gas station and insisted she didn't have to go and was ready to get outta there ASAP.  Once we made it to Moma's she had to go and was nervous about using their potty as well because there was no little seat with duckies on it.  We made it through and she even did a little poopie but that was the end of that.  We went to walmart and picked up a potty seat and stool so she could feel more at home.  I though this would end the no pooping on the potty debate but boy was I wrong.  2 days later she would finally go poopie but she wanted her diaper :(  Oh great I though, we are back to square one.  I was terrified that when we got back home she would regress and want her diaper again.  Thank goodness I was wrong.  She picked right off where she left off, going to the potty on her own and pooping on the potty alone as well!!  Cue the HUGE sigh of relief. 
The rest of the weekend was spent following Moma around wanting to read the Pout Pout Fish books and grandma loved every minute of it (I think). We made it to the park everyday and walked every night, it was glorious.  Lexi had her first encounter with a skunk and it was priceless.  She saw it in the middle of the road up ahead of where we were walking and pointed out the black kitty in the road.  That is when it turned and looked at us and we spotted the white stripe.  Nope we said Lexi that is a skunk.  She freaked, ran into her stroller and started whining and wanting to go back to the house.  We explained to her what a skunk was and why we couldn't walk by it and she proceeded to call it a "kunk" the rest of the walk.  She was on "kunk" alert until we got back to the safety of Moma's house.  Then it was time to head back to the heat and our regular daily routine.  Fun times, work and school back full force.
