O.k. so there are two things wrong about these pictures....the first one is Abby with a black eye. I recently went on a trip with my Mom for 4 day's and Joe was kind enough to take a few days off to watch the kids. Well it seemed like they had a great time, the house was still standing, the kids appeared to have had a bath or two while I was gone, all the food that was bought was pretty much gone, and I could still see the carpet, which meant that there was probably a few pick ups here and there. However upon inquiring about the black eye the only response was that there was a collision between Landon and Abby and that is all that was said......I didn't ask anymore questions, who really knows what goes on when Mom is away?

Now this second picture I may need some help on. I have been talking up the whole going in the potty with Abby. ( She is 2 and I swear I was told by several people that girls are easier than boys to potty train.....um are you sure?) She really is just not into it yet. She really likes to sit on the potty, but only for a second, because I think she knows that if she sits down for a minute then the fun part comes next of pulling on the toilet paper, and flushing it down the toilet. The next problem is that the has no desire to really sit on the potty like a girl......you see the boys are always in a hurry, they first run in the house, and because they are trying to be fast so that they don't miss anything outside, it seems that it is impossible for them to close the door. The problem is Abby occasionally will follow them, and sees that they stand up to go pee, so why can't she? Every time she is asked to try to go to the bathroom, she quickly runs in lifts up her shirt and holds on to that cute belly button that sticks out in hopes that the plumbing will work.....she is very hopeful it will happen one day. HELP any suggestions? She also wants to wear Landon's underwear all the time. I guess it is a good thing she likes the feel of the underwear, but wants to wear the boys kind. What am I going to do with this girl?
