Stuph

Saw a few movies over the past week. "The Prestige" & "Children of Men" Both were excellent... the last movie before these Maria and I tried to watch was the second "Pirates of the Carribean" and we both fell asleep about 30 minutes into it (it was soooo booring). I've never been a huge movie buff.. but going on a good streak of movies like that gets you amped to watch another one. We really had no idea about either movie before we watched it... it's better when you go into it without any preconceived notions about how good or bad it's going to be.

Maria posted this on her blog.. but yeah, Pearl is potty trained. She's always shown an interest in using the toilet.. so one day Maria just put her in normal underwear and she didn't have an accident. Day after day of this and now here we are, only 2 weeks later and 2.5 weeks before her second birthday... potty trained.

I told Maria if Pearl was our first we would have thought Holden was broken. Pearl has never been hard to put to bed for a nap/bedtime... she's never bad in public... she doesn't like getting dirty (divaitis). So far we are a 5.0 on the Parental Richter Scale.
