Pottytalk and Volleyball

Now with the weather turning a bit crisper it is time to start the blog back up. There are a few noteworthy things to report. The most exciting is our Big little guy is now officially potty trained. It has been about 3 weeks now and he is still quite enthusiastic and we get lots of smiles from others when he races back from the bathroom at stores, restaurants, after meeting, etc exclaiming at the top of his lungs, "Mommy/Daddy I went potty in the potty."
One of the favorite taboo subjects which they are not to talk about at daycare is "pottytalk". For those not in the know "Pottytalk" refers to the use of pottywords (peepee and poopoo). They very much enjoy slipping up and then trying to tell on the other person if it wasn't them.






Then the other excitement is our weekly volleyball games. We are playing on a coed Volleyball team made up of assorted friends and it has been great fun for adults and kids alike. We play one time a week. It is best of 3 or 45 mins which ever happens first. So far we have not lost and have always won in 2 games. I think we are getting better each week. It has been good exercise and fun to see our friends more often then we normally would. There are 4 levels of play and we are in the 2nd from the bottom but likely will move up one level next year. So we bought a ball, kneepads and actually talk strategy and practice hitting balls and working on vertical jump. If you want to follow our schedule and progress you can check these sites. We are the "Friendly Digs". Standings and schedule. We have a few fans that come to cheer us on.

Congrats on the potty thing.
I love the team name. I think I admire that verbal dexterity even more than your record...
