Potty Like a Rockstar

The struggles, the anticipation, the heartache...they'll soon be a thing of the past. A few weeks ago the whole Potty thing just took off. Leah now consistently pees in the potty but she still doesn't poop in the potty. Either way, dry diapers are cool! So our next hurdles are poop in the potty, and not going in the middle of the night and for naps. Naps are about 50/50, so we're making good progress. 

The cold she had a couple weeks ago still remains- in her head. We ended up going to urgent care because she had an ear infection and the doctor gave us a choice; either give her some nasty syrup three times a day for a week or the shot. I knew which was more painless for me, and that was the shot. She didn't like it, but miraculously she was much better the next day. So since then the topic of conversation has been "Ears hurt..BEEEP!" "Doctor make Leah better". It's funny to hear her side of the story. 

  

Cold Season

This past weekend wasn't a whole lot of fun for Leah. Unfortunately, she got mom's cold and is now trying to fight it off. She's a little tougher, though. Her fever lasted for a couple days versus mom's for about a week and doesn't complain. She stayed home from daycare today with mom. Leah just wanted mom's comfort- cuddling and movies. I think she watched "101 Dalmations" about 10 times now. It must be her new favorite. She's always asking for Cruella Devil- hopefully it's just because she's so animated! She seems like she's back to her usual self just a little more laid back. Hopefully it's back to daycare tomorrow!

Keeping Warm

Hi everyone! It's me Leah again. Just wanted to give you an update of how we've been here at the Robran household. I've been trying to keep busy with different things. A couple weekends ago, great grandma Ardus and grandpa and grandma Thoms came to visit, bearing gifts for Christmas. I got lots of neat stuff and have been keeping busy with that. 

Last Friday I went to the MN Zoo with my mommy's friends from work and got to see all of the inside animals. It was way too cold to see them outside! I think my favorite that day were the monkeys or fish. They're so fun to watch! We even saw a bird show and the birds flew right over our heads- neat!

Take a look at this picture of me in mommy's hat and scarf. It's so fun to dress up!

I'm helping with dishes in this one. Boy, it'd be nice if we had a dishwasher- it's lots of work!

Vacation Countdown!

Well it's been awhile since our last blog. Not a whole lot has happened since buying a new car. The Impala has been treating us well, taking us places and back safely. Life has been occupied with the usual- work, sleep, eat, and play. Leah has been keeping busy with her babies, movies, cooking along with "trying" to potty train. She understands the concept but has difficulty with control. She loves her big girl underwear and is pround to wear them around the house. We'll get there soon!

The big, exciting news for us it that Jarrod and I FINALLY get to go somewhere tropical and warm. It's going to be the honeymoon we've been waiting for.  A trip to Cozumel, Mexico is our plan for March. We've been counting down the days and it's only 44 days away! Leah is going to have a blast while we're away with Grandpa Tom and Grandma Vicki. I will have a hard time not seeing her everyday but will know she's in great hands. So take a look at our beautiful destination we look forward to, especially considering it's so dang cold here!

Our New Ride

Hello everyone! I know it's been awhile since I've blogged but now have good news to blog about. Daddy and mommy were sad to say goodbye to their car. It was a cool one!  I guess it ended up not working right or something so they had to find another one. I told them I wanted a purple one but of course, they didn't listen but they found a pretty gray color. I guess I can live with that. I rode in it a couple times and think it's fun. I keep reminding mommy that she broke our other car so I hope we have this one for awhile. So check out my pimping new ride! The best part is the remote start- that's so neat!
