The big news in the Madsen household is that Nolan is potty trained. We have learned that the trick to teaching Nolan something new is to talk to him about it, and tell him what the next step is. For example, “This weekend we are going to wear big-boy underwear!” It seems to work quite well for him, not super fast, but quite well. He’s only had one bed wetting incident since 11/22 (a couple, “oops I missed the potty” incidents, but well, big boys do those too :).
Our computer is on the fritz, so the blog posts will probably have fewer pictures until we get a new one. For those of you outside of Minnesota, consider yourself lucky. We are buried in snow, although it’s not nearly as bad as the national media made it sound like. We will be celebrating Christmas with the Fletcher’s this weekend (12/18) and the Madsen’s the following weekend. For me, someone who is not a Christmas person, all this merriment has taken its toll. I am completely incapable of making cookies; they turn out funny looking and ‘okay’ tasting. I was going to tackle Divinity but after all of the failed cookies this year I have decided to skip it. I don’t need to spend 3 hours of my day to no avail.
We wish all of you (the 3 or 4 that actually read this blog:) a joyous and peaceful new year.
