The Princess and the Potty

As if potty training isn't hard enough... add in the element of a few layers of princess dress-ups! Oh my goodness.
I normally would not post any potty pictures simply because it's mean, but I just thought this was so funny and so typical of my girl. The potty training is going okay. I am tired of it and it seems like she'll do really well for a day or two, and then just decide that it's not something she has time for in her busy schedule of coloring and reading. It is hard for me to keep her motivated and excited about it and I feel like I am her personal little cheerleader who is running out of energy.
It's hard to think of any other news as potty training has pretty much taken over my life lately. Oh, I got a calling in our new ward. I play the piano in the primary and I love it. The primary is pretty small, usually about 12-15 kids. There are usually 2-3 kids in the nursery but some weeks Allary is the only one. The primary president told me my first week that if Jesus were to come to church, He would be in the primary. I think she's right, I just love it. Jason hasn't received a calling yet. I think he's enjoying this little break after being a very busy Elder's Quorum President.
Other than potty training, I've just been busy with the usual house work and errands. Any free time I have I am either blogging or working feverishly on my family's Christmas present. "Christmas?" you say? Well, it would be wonderful if I were 9 months ahead of things, (HA!) but instead I am over 3 months behind on things. Oh dear. I make a DVD full of pictures and video for my family every year, and this one is taking an especially long time. I just need more time in my day.
I am excited for Conference weekend, and not just to get to watch Conference but because Jason actually has the weekend off. Yea!
