Dance and Potty Success

She is practically perfect in every way. 
She had potty training breakthroughs this week!  This is more graphic than I like to go, but we are talking actual poop in the potty--- MULTIPLE TIMES!!!!  Celebration!  We are getting very close to having our last child potty trained.  This is big.
But she is doing something strange and somewhat disturbing at nighttime.  She wakes up (multiple times).  She will go downstairs and take off her pajamas and diaper and go potty.  Then come upstairs to our room and find random clothes to put on, by her herself. 
One time she got up and went downstairs to help herself to the jar of peanut butter.  Another time she unwrapped multiple band aids and stuck them on the floor.  Weird.  And concerning. 
So, she is practically perfect, minus the recent bizarre nighttime behavior.  That leaves room for improvement:)
George had his dance recitals this past week.  Tuesday he performed his ballet dance.
Here it is-- George starts on the far left.

Wednesday he did his tap number.  He did a great job in both of them!
Here it is:

So here is a fun thing!  Well, fun and busy.  Cannon and George are BOTH doing summer workshops with Ballet West Academy this summer.  George is the age that Cannon was when he began at BWA.  George is trying it out this summer to see what he thinks.  BWA is intense and it just gets more so as the kids get older, so I would not consider sending him there unless he really knew what it was and still wanted to do it.  After one week of 2 1/2 hours a day, George seems to be really enjoying it.  He says they are pretty strict, but he likes it. 
Cannon is loving it (as was to be expected).  He dances five hours a day and sleeps great at night (also to be expected). 
It's pretty great that the Brothers Fox get to do this together.
