Potty Successes

I've made it a full week without an accident now!

Survived

Mom arrived at my side early this afternoon and found me happily napping surrounded by toys. She had no reason to fret.

First Day

S is now at her first day in the yellow room (a room for the oldest toddlers, just before entering preschool).

A is now at her first day in the young infant room.

and I survived my first dual-drop-off and made it into work without letting a tear escape.

Bonding with Daddy

I spent three days home alone with dad this week and after six weeks of being very mommy-centric I've decided that dad isn't all that bad. After all, I didn't realize that someone else could feed me (and I love my food)!

Potty Training

Mom is quite excited. On the 18th, mom started sending me to school without diapers. I did pretty well last week ending in great success by making it through the entire weekend without an accident! And this is including trips to the store, to my aunt's house, and to various other places that I like visiting and therefore become distracted.

This week is week two and I'm well on my way to making it through another weekend accident free.

I've wanted to dive into the potty experience for quite some time now, but mom kept holding me back. At first it was because she was expecting A to arrive in just a few weeks. I showed enough interest for her to finally pick up some underwear for me, but then she was "too tired" and they were put in my dresser drawer. Finally, during a trip to the zoo a few weeks ago, I had a dry diaper and asked to go to the bathroom. I took care of my business and made it through the rest of the zoo trip without soiling my diaper.

With that, mom finally decided that perhaps she was holding me back too much.

So, here I am, wearing my favorite blue Hello Kitty's under my pants and running around as if I'm an expert.

To Make Everything OK

Sometimes you just need to finish the night in mom and dad's bed so the world will be OK in the morning.

Dr's Check-Up

I had my one month doctor's check-up yesterday and am a happy, healthy, growing baby. I measured at just under 22 inches (75% for height) and weighed in at 10lbs 13.5oz (that is the 90% for weight).
