No pics today, just some fun observations. WARNING: Potty talk ahead!

I never thought I'd see the day that I wanted to see a poopy diaper, but it happened this week. What do you do when the baby is eating and eating, but nothing's coming out? From Sunday afternoon until Tuesday morning, nothing (very little). I considered breaking out the castor oil again (see Archives from last July!), but then it finally happened - twice in the same morning, and life is back to normal. Yeah!

Fresh from her Hummer rides with Christian in Bend, JoJo went to grandma's house on Monday and rode on the dolly with Matthew holding her, grandma or Nathan pushing. She loves to ride, especially in shopping carts at stores.

The heat has been getting to her a little bit. She was very cranky Tuesday afternoon before going to grandmas. She slept a lot more than usual, drank everything she could, and was still sweating a lot, so we played in the indoor pool for a while (commonly known as the bathtub). She splashed around with the foam letters and numbers and had a great time in there.

JoJo spent Tuesday night with grandma, and she loved it! She ate a lot, played with the boys (Hudson seems to be her fav), and slept alone in her crib - she doesn't do that much at home, but we're working on it. When I went to pick her up after a fun day of housecleaning, working out, and giving blood (aphoresis), she was very excited and didn't want me to put her down.

Her favorite summer food is turning out to be blueberries, or maybe it's just because we have so many of them growing in the yard. She loves to be carried out to the blueberry / raspberry area. She points at the bushes and says, "na," which is her new way of saying she wants things. This is much better than whining, so I highly encourage it. She loves people food now, berries, bread and butter, etc., although she has been known to down a jar or two of baby food in one sitting!

Next week is her first birthday!
