This week

It's been a really hard week.

I can't think of the right thing to say, so I'll just keep it short.

We'll miss you, Aunt Kay. It's hard to believe this picture was taken about a month ago at the mountain house (with her daughters Erica and Lisa).

While I was away, Lee continued with the potty training. Colby started getting the hang of peeing on the potty on day 3, but refused to poop. Unfortunately, that caused some constipation problems, and when he finally did poop, it hurt him. A lot. And now, he's terrified of doing it again.

He has decided that, by sheer force of will, he will never poop again. And he has been pretty darn successful. He has a poop dance that he does when he's withholding, so it's no secret what's going on. A few more days of the poop dance landed us in the doctors office yesterday with instructions to give him an enema and some mild laxatives.

So, we've had to completely back track and lay off the potty training. We're putting him in a pullup now, and he just pees in that instead of going to the potty. We need to get him over this fear of pooping first and foremost, and then we'll worry about the fact that he's the tallest kid in preschool pooping in his pants.

Fiesty little Miller is taking more and more steps these days. (I'm calling her fiesty because she's starting to become quite opinionated about what she wants, and she lets it be known) She's not full on walking, but she does about 6-8 steps quite often.

I've posted many videos of Colby dancing, but Miller has really developed her own style....I call it the Miller shuffle. She does the same thing every time: she sits on her feet, bounces up and down, thrusts her hips forward, and hops across the floor. She'll do it over and over until she falls down, and then she'll get back up and do it some more. I only have this one short clip of her doing it, but I'm hoping to catch more of it at the concert tonight.
