Current peepee status
Nothing to report on the Potty Front. Rowan hasn't shown any interest since the first two times. We've laid off for a bit, though we have a bag of mini M&Ms with his name on it.
Other news: we are looking into doing a mini-Disney trip in late-spring/early summer. It may be really fun with the potential to be a pain in the ass. We just need to plan it out and not over do it. We know what our limitations are. It's all about the Princesses this year and we need to stay focused on that. I can't get over how pricey it is, but from all accounts, I hear it's worth it.
I've probably been to Disney World and surrounding parks about five or so times, counting early childhood and college spring break. I'm sure we're in for a totally different experience than what I've already been exposed to. We have a few months to fully plan -- but we want to take it easy and relax a bit.
I've already received great tips from friends on Facebook - there are some professional Disney'ers out there. There's almost a science to it, though we realize we are still going to pay through the nose. We just need to go for it, and make it a magical experience for everyone (especially Mo and Ro!)

Houston, we have peepee
At 20 months plus change Rowan urinated in the potty today for the first time. He was properly awarded for his efforts (praise and a Sweetart)

Is it for show, or for blow?
We manage to sit down for dinner every night, though my boss would probably prefer that I stay at work a few more hours in the evening. I think it's an important time for us to sit together and talk about our days. Maureen is beginning to share with us and is able to tell at least one story about what happened at school. We manage to draw something out of Rowan through a series of questions, though we are never quite sure he is feeding us the facts.
One of my favorite parts of dinner is when I ask who needs a napkin. Everyone answers yes. I hand out the napkins, but hold Rowan's as the last. When I finally give one to Rowan, he holds it to his nose, makes a blowing sound with his mouth and then hands it back to me saying "Thank you." Then he waits for all of us to laugh. He knows he's funny.
We'll try to get this on video, though he usually clams up when we bring out the camera.
