Bathrooms, Beaches, Porcupines, and Rock Music

Amy and I decided that it would be a good idea to try to potty train Sydney, so we said "bye bye diapers" last weekend. It has been an adventure. We have been trying to stay home more this week to make it easy to get to a toilet quickly, but we have gone on some small trips to try to prevent extreme boredom from setting in. We went to the beach one day, to let Sydney run around. It was a little bit windy, and Amy dropped a wrapper. Watch the video.

Amy also saw some white things in the water and wanted to take Sydney to look at the "birds". I said they were buoys, but Amy was convinced they were birds. I decided to just stay in my seat instead of making the walk to see nothing. At least Amy and Sydney got to get some exercise. We went on a picnic at the beach, and I forgot to bring a knife to make the sandwiches, oops. Good thing I had gloves in my backpack.

The other day when I came home from work, I saw a porcupine crossing the road by our house. I told Sydney about it in the morning and now she thinks that I look at porcupines for work. She always asks if I am going to work to see the porcupine.

Sydney has also taken an interest in rock music. She likes the song Rock You Like a Hurricane, but has some trouble with the lyrics. Watch the video here.

What she is saying is "Here I am, rock you like an american train." I applaud the effort.
