Adventures in potty training

Hi faithful readers. It's been a while since I've posted a blog, although Michael does a good job of keeping things updated!
For the past few months, we've been working on potty training with Ellie. She's done quite well with it. Michael and I are thankful for the fact that we're spending less money on diapers!
There is one challenge we've been facing with potty training...making poopies in the potty (for anyone with a weak stomach, I apologize--after all, I am a nurse). So, we've tried all kinds of bribery to help Ellie accomplish this feat. Finally, this week, she did it! Her prize was to get the "Herbie: Fully Loaded" movie. We proudly went to the movie store that night to claim her reward! Yeah, Ellie!
