This past few days held a lot for us. We started potty training. I would say we are sort of loosely doing potty training right now. He is peeing in the potty but I don't think he knows how to hold his pee, or tell us when he needs to go yet. But peeing in the potty is a great start! :)
Yesterday Anthony officially turned 2 years old. He is such a big boy, I cannot believe how quickly time is flying even though our days together seem long. For his birthday I made eggless strawberry cupcakes with homemade strawberry icing, and they turned out pretty yummy. They seem more muffin-like than cupcake-like though... but still they are delicious. Anthony loved the batter and the icing. I let him eat so much of it, that I didn't even end up giving him a cupcake yesterday. haha. Today he will have one though.
Also this past week we have become acquainted with the spider that lives outside of my husband and I's bedroom window. We named her Brenda, and my brother tells me she is a barn spider. Brenda the barn spider. That has a nice ring to it, don't you think? Anyway, she built a huge web spanning almost our entire window, and she just sits in the middle and waits for flies. She gets a LOT too. We have watched her eat a couple of them.
I got a picture of her eating a little fly!!
Now anyone who knows me knows that the sight of anything with more than 4 legs is enough for me to freak out and have nightmares. But I am not scared of Brenda. I know she wants to be outside, and not in here with us. I know that she is harmless (except to the tens of unexpected flies that get caught in her web every day). Maybe I am getting more used to creepy crawly things. As a mommy of 2 curious boys, I sure hope that's the case!
