We met up with our Friday group for a quick dinner... it was really quick because we needed to get back home and make some plans!
Chris decided that day that he'd need to go on a spring break road trip to help his mother with his grandparents, who have been having some difficulties lately.
Saturday 3/5
Saturday AM, Chris hit the road. Amelia and I decided that it would be a good opportunity to have at sleepover at Grandpa's house, so we hit the road not long after.
Amelia's pony friends, having a dance party while we waited for a few minutes outside of Great-Grandma and Great-Grandpa's house:
Amelia did the thing she ALWAYS does at their house - jump into their bed for a "nap":
Singing a few songs for Great-Grandma:
Hanging out with Great-Grandpa:
We stopped to pick up a few things at a store, but we passed on this flower headband and got a new easter hat instead...
Posing with Grandpa before church:
Waiting for the parade to arrive:
Enjoying the parade (and the candy!):
We went out for a birthday lunch at one of Chris's favorite places, and then headed home for Amelia's nap time.
After naptime we decided it was time to get serious on this potty training business.

We had lunch with my Dad and then went back to his house so Amelia could get a nap.
It took her a while to fall asleep, and about an hour later started fussing. I guess I was too quick to decide that she was done with her nap... because when I got her up, she fell back asleep on me!
She was like this for about 50 minutes - it was bliss:

We had a nice, relaxing evening at Dad's house. Nothing terribly exciting.

Breakfast!
Posing with Grandpa before church:
Grandpa's church had a lunch after, so we stayed and Amelia gulped down a hot dog!
We headed home right after (Dad had plans), and got home just in time for a nap.

To be honest, I can't really recall what we did this evening, except maybe to hang out at the house!
Saturday 3/12
We got ready early and went to the St. Patrick's parade in a nearby town. This is the closest I could find to green in her closet...

This was the outfit that Amelia wanted to wear - down to the "ballet shoes", as she called them:
Part of her motivation was to be able to start taking a dance class (requires kid be potty trained), so perhaps that was the reasoning behind the shoes?
Things went fairly well, and have gotten progressively better through the week.
That night, we had a birthday dinner for Daddy. It was a night early, but he didn't mind:
