Dogs N' Dancin'

Today Violet was "cleaning" all sorts of things with a package of baby wipes she found. Porter got in the way and he got groomed too.
She currently has a love/hate relationship with Porty. She either laughs hysterically while she tries to pet him (usually on his tail), or screams "Nooooo!" at him when she is eating. She is, apparently, trying to squash the one bright moment in his life: he's clean-up crew under Violet's high chair when she eats. Not any more! He actually listens when she yells at him... he sighs and goes back to his doggie bed. Poor thing!

You know, I always swore I wouldn't be a slave to kids music. So far, so good. Here is Violet dancing away to Guns N' Roses. Unfortunately I missed getting her headbanging on video, but she does do a pretty good impression of the Axle Rose slithery dance.


And last, a quick PT update. We had kind of a rough day today when she woke up at 5:45 am totally soaked and wouldn't go back to sleep. Unfortunately she knows that she might get to watch some cartoons if she's up early so Mommy can curl up next to her and snooze a while longer. However this morning we were both way too tired and I ended up putting her back down at 9. We both slept until noon!

The great news is that we actually *gasp* LEFT THE HOUSE! We ran some errands and low and behold, she had to go while we were in the fabric store. And she WENT!! It was so great. She got a special treat for that one!

She was dry the rest of the day but did have one tiny accident tonight. I think after dinner she gets too preoccupied and forgets she has to go. This time she caught it and felt really bad :( Poor thing! She even said "I'm sorry, Mama!" while I was cleaning up the bathroom floor. Awwww! The funny thing is that she KNOWS when she has an accident as opposed to going on her own. She asks for stickers (her reward) immediately after going on her own. She doesn't even ASK for anything if she has an accident. Weird!

Anyway, I'm trying a few different things for overnight since last night obviously didn't work. We'll see how it goes!

What a rock star! She cracks me up. Bridget seems to think the theme song to "Gilmore Girls" is right up there with AC/DC. The child will stop whatever she's doing to dance to it. Maybe Violet could teach her a thing or two about music. Bridget will bring Queen and Violet can bring everything else ;)
