Random sleeping and potty training stuff

Here are some older pictures from our trip to the zoo in Arizona, but I really like them and thought you might too. Here is Alexa getting a ride from Auntie Holly. We had the stroller, but it was hard to see the animals from there.
She adored the merry-go-round and cried when we had to get off.
Laying on Poppa's head.
Potty training - I finally plotted out the information we have been collecting regarding the status of Alexa's diaper and unfortunately there are no consistent patterns. This was frustrating, so I sat down to think some more. I thought about trying the leaving her naked bit again. Then I thought, what if I get her some underwear and that way, I can see when she is going, she will feel wet and yucky and we will keep it from getting on the floor. So I got online and looked for potty training underwear and it pulled up a site from a lady who was offering her three day potty training method. I looked at it and it seemed to make sense, so we are going to try her way. The one difficulty is that it requires three days of my undivided attention, so we need to wait for spring break to get three days in a row when there is no school and we can stay home the whole time.
Alexa fell asleep while finishing her supper last night. It was so funny. She would close her eyes as she put a bite in her mouth and then struggle to open them again. Then her head started bobbing around and she was gone. It was only 7:00 but we put her in bed with her clothes on. About 3:30 this morning she came and got in bed with us. She stayed there kicking and elbowing us for the rest of the night.
