Coppelia's Blog: A week in the life of a temporarily single mom
http://coppeyadam.blogspot.com/2008/07/week-in-life-of-temporarily-single-mom.html
Saturday, July 19, 2008. A week in the life of a temporarily single mom. I am a temporarily single mom. My husband, Adam, is working for the summer in Charlotte, NC. It's going on 5 weeks and I miss him! I am super proud of my hubby for what he's doing. He's working for Audio Ethics, a sound/production company that is exactly up his alley. He was even part of the production crew for a Newsboys concert. Fun! So, here's a recap of what my week looks like as a temporarily single mom:. Joanna (Christopher ca...

Wednesday, April 22, 2009. Potty training, take 2! A few months ago, at our friends Mark and Kristy's house, Adam and I found Christopher sitting on a potty. Wow, we thought, this is it! Adam ran to Walmart, bought a really cool potty and we were ready to go! But Christopher decided the potty was yucky. There was no way he was going to sit in that thing. So we let it go for a few months. So, I went on a google-fest, googling everything about potty training. Mayo Clinic. Day 2: Breakfast, underwear, timer...

Tuesday, November 18, 2008. Is Christopher a Toddler or Teenager? Christopher has been so funny lately! He will turn 3 in January, and it seems the closer we get to his birthday, the more he's becoming a big kid (read: teenage angst is starting to rear its head! He made his first few attempts at the potty.then decided it was yucky! He thinks it's gross that he has to deal with poo, and wiping and flushing! Seriously, is he a toddler or a teenager? We'll say it's time to get up, and he'll say "go away!

Wednesday, September 17, 2008. Children are a blessing from the Lord and I was blessed tonight. My husband, Adam; our 2 year old son, Christopher; and I usually share the bedtime ritual. Adam takes care of bathtime ("tito aguas"="ba nito con agua! And we both do the story/prayer/tuck-in time. But Adam was working tonight, so it was just Christopher and me. So after "Tito Aguas"/story/prayer/tuck-in time, I stayed with him, hanging out a little while longer. And I just had the coolest time! You have to un...

Coppelia's Blog: Ocholalis, chuchuquen, and other cute words!
http://coppeyadam.blogspot.com/2008/07/ocholalis-chuchuquen-and-other-cute.html
Saturday, July 19, 2008. Ocholalis, chuchuquen, and other cute words! Christopher is now 2 1/2 years old, and it seems everyday he adds new words to his vocabulary! Just a few weeks ago, I wanted to make sure we were on the right track with his language ability. We are bilingual, and I wanted to make sure he was learning both English and Spanish to his advantage. Thank you, Lord! One cute thing that happened during the evaluation:. She asked us how many words he knows. I don't know! Jugo, pititas (for pa...

Coppelia's Blog: Fun with Ding Ding!
http://coppeyadam.blogspot.com/2008/07/fun-with-ding-ding.html
Saturday, July 19, 2008. Fun with Ding Ding! Today was a great day.but it didn't start out great. I was ready to spend the day skulking around, throwing myself a big pity party because I just found out that we have to move in 30 days. Unfortunately, the owners of the house we are renting had to foreclose. And Adam is not here (he's working in NC for the summer) so I'm going through this alone. I had reason to skulk. And off we went to the Zoo. It was a fun, cute little retreat of a zoo. It's cool bec...

Coppelia's Blog: The Potty Diaries ... on hold?
http://coppeyadam.blogspot.com/2009/05/potty-diaries-on-hold.html
Monday, May 04, 2009. The Potty Diaries . on hold? Ah, potty training! If you've been through it, please, um, HELP! Christopher is great about sitting on the potty, but he's not actually going in it yet. He hides in the closet to "go"! So if you have any good tips, please post a comment. Adam and I would love to hear your ideas. And the poor guy gets really frustrated when he sits there for a few minutes and nothing happens. So we're trying not to pressure him, just encourage him as much as we can. A col...
