Fishy Fun in Prescott

We spent Labor Day weekend in Prescott, and had a great time. Not only did Hayden get to go fishing for the first time, he managed to catch quite a few fish! I've been fishing a few times and have never caught anything in my whole life! They had to throw everything back the first day, because AC didn't get a permit, but the second day AC, Hayden and Chloe went and both kids caught a few. The only one worth keeping was Tito the almost-ten-inch Trout. Hayden was very proud of his catch, but, like his mama, did not really relish the idea of eating Tito. Dad took care of that.
In addition to the exciting fishing expedition, Ellie also potty-trained that weekend. She and I spent lots of quality time at the house with nothing but a Dora potty seat and a bagful of nmnmns. (M&Ms). Oh, and lots of stickers. The first 2 days were a bit, um, wet, but by the third day she is en feugo. She's only had 1 accident in the past two days. For the first time in SEVEN years I do not have a child in diapers!!!! What am I going to do with all of that extra $$$$?
Kind of a long post for me, but we are excited to share our big news!

And, congrats to being diaper free! Woo-hoo. If you are looking for something to do with that unspent cash, we are always open for deposits. And, excellent remodel of EandAC.

Thank you, thank you very much. I am loving being diaper free. And I'm loving the new look on my blog-o. Alas, the cash is already spent.
