The latest instantiation is Kaelyn is a mouse and I&#8217;m a squirrel (if I happen to carry Evie with me, she becomes Evie Bunny&#8230;for inquiring minds, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Jumping on the Potty Train</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Many months ago Kaelyn seemed interested in the potty.  I bought all the potty gear and let her go when she wanted.  I never really &#8220;trained&#8221; or pushed the issue.  Honestly I think *I* was not ready.  I was just too busy either being pregnant or taking care of a newborn [...]]]></description>

Evie&#8217;s birth was actually very, very similar to my birth with Kaelyn.  My pregnancy with Evie was pretty much the same too except [...]]]></description>

		<title>Baba O&#8217;Riley Theory of Slow Motion</title>
		<description><![CDATA[After watching this John Hughes montage, I came up with this theory: any video clip becomes twice as good when set to The Who&#8217;s Baba O&#8217;Riley in slow motion.
To test this theory, the original video of Kaelyn shaking her sillies out:

Thanks for keeping me motivated Kaelyn!

		<title>Tummy Time</title>

It&#8217;s especially good on hot or rainy days when you can&#8217;t play outside, and it&#8217;s something easy I can do with both girls.  
Anyway, we were there today [...]]]></description>

She&#8217;s really getting good at stringing together nouns and verbs to make some simple sentences.  One of my favorites is sometimes when she sees a bug and then it crawls away, she&#8217;ll say, &#8220;I don&#8217;t see it.  Where&#8217;d it go?  I don&#8217;t know.&#8221; and throw [...]]]></description>
