She is rinsing the doll potty

Ella woke up dry! She used the potty and had accidents 8 times within her first 3 hours of being awake.

I made pancakes for breakfast. Dave was busy working and I was busy holding Ella while making pancakes. It's pretty challenging. Stirring in the chocolate chips was tough since I couldn't hold the container with my other hand or Ella would be too close to it.  Ella preferred normal pancakes over chocolate chip but she also wasn't very hungry.

Dave covered his face for some reason. Then Ella copied. Man she is cute.

Ella is liking dolls more. She puts her doll in her potty chair sometimes.  She also cuddled in bed with another doll.

Ella spent some time coloring. She was so cute. But then she started biting crayons and I'd have to get a piece of crayon out of her mouth.  I tried to get her to make a circle. She only made one enclosed shape but it was more like a cone.

We had manwich for lunch. Ella wasn't a fan. She didn't even finish one bite.

I started going through our cupboards becasue they are full and we have on room for our new food. I found a box of hot chocolate with 7 of the 8 packets in it and it expired in 2008!

Ella wouldn't nap. Then I brought up how one time Ella wouldn't nap until we were all 3 hanging out in bed and she knew Dave was there. Well Ella and Dave fell asleep doing that. They both slept about 3 hours!

Ella ate a ton before cheesesteaks arrived and then she ate a lot of cheesesteak.

The last 5 bathroom happenings of the day Ella actually went in the potty!  5 in a row!!

A new travel potty

Ella woke up at 1 AM and hadn't peed by the time I got in there. Yay! She might have just woken up because she wanted to eat though. She went on the potty shortly after that.   She woke up at 6:20 and nursed then she went on the potty after. Yay again.

Ella decided she likes to wear my shoes. She put on my flip flops and tried to walk around but the shoes kept flopping off. Then I gave her some other shoes that stayed on better.

At 10:40 she started being a punk. She said she didn't want to go to the bathroom. Then a few minutes later, she climbed up on her rocking chair and started to pee. I got her to the potty and she didn't finish. Minutes later she was on the couch and peed so much. It even went onto 2 cushions.  No fun.  Then a half hour later I put sheets on the toddler bed and no less than 2 minutes later she peed on that too.

Dave says I broke Ella.

We decided to go out to lunch. Ella fell asleep not even 2 minutes from there. Dave woke her up and she fell asleep on his shoulder. She slept on him through the entire line. Then she woke up and we ate.   When we were out Ella signed to go potty but then was too scared to use a public restroom.

We got home and Ella napped near 1:45. She slept almost 3.5 hours and woke up and had her first accident while sleeping. I think she may have sat up and peed based on the play by play I can see from the video camera taking 1 picture a minute.

We went out to dinner. Ella signed again but wouldn't use a restroom. Then I sat her on the potty in the car. She actually peed!!!!   We went to Safeway so we didn't get home until after 8:30.   She then went on the potty 3 times at home. She signed first twice. And she actually pooped on the potty!!!! This is her first time since potty training. She pooped a lot on the potty before so it's been rough on me.    She didn't fall asleep until 10.

I almost went to go refill our 5 gallon water jugs but then Dave said we'd start the movie too late so he didn't want me to go. (I should have gone anyway. He wouldn't leave the house Sunday so we went without water again.)  We watched John Wick.

 Ella was in charge of our list.

Just so you know she only grabbed stuff that was in the wrong location. Then she put it on the floor. After she grabbed something in the wrong spot I wanted to see if she would take things that were in the right spot so that's why she got a couple things.  She never did take anything that was appropriately placed. She also tried to put some stuff back.
