Pit Stops


We were potty-training Riley on our trip to Idaho. It was challenging being on the road, but we packed her toilet and all went well. These pics are of the way home from Idaho. We travelled in the evening, so Riley was very cold sitting on the side of the road on her toilet. She did so good, and there were no accidents. Don't even ask how long it took us to get home, though....

Daddy's Girl

Last night at the dinner table Jason said he was going to run six miles in the morning. Now, this morning, as I was laying in bed, I heard Riley in bed just talking to herself. This is odd as she usually wakes me up by yelling she has to go potty. I walked in her room and asked her how long she had been awake. She shook her head, gave a big sigh and said, "For six miles."

You Did It!!!

Today I had to leave for work very early, before Riley woke up. Jason was fit-to-be-tied with Miss Riley as she was very grumpy when she woke up. He offered her her favorite, a sticker. Riley, as always, decided to put a sticker on daddy's face thinking it was very funny. The sticker was a happy face, flourescent pink sticker that said, "You did it!" (These are stickers I give Riley when she's done something good) Jason gets Riley dressed and off they go to McDonalds to get some breakfast burritos. Jason thought the woman who worked at McDonald's was looking at him kind of oddly. Then off they went to Kristi's house, Riley's daycare. Hmm, was Kristi also giving Jason a funny look? Then off to work for Jason. He entered his work, passed the secretary, and proceeded to work with his customer for the day, a customer that he will be working with for the rest of the week. After a while of running tests, the man (custumer) turned to Jason and asked him if he was aware he had a sticker on his face. So yes, through the McDonald drive-thru, Riley's daycare, and at his work, Jason had sported the happy-faced, hot pink "you did it!" sticker on his left cheak! As always, Riley had the last laugh.
