pottytraining, snow and pictures

I finally decided to get serious about pottytraining Riah. Even tho its very cold right now, I knew the only way to make him go in the potty was to take away his diapers. So I did. He wasn’t very happy about it the first day, but he now likes wearing underwear. Day 1 we started by letting him run around in just a long tshirt. He did very well, telling me when he had to go #1 and #2. Only one accident the whole day. Day 2 was a little crazy because Zion had play practice. But with only 1 wet diaper (cause i refused to take him out in public naked) he did very well. We are now on day 3 and he’s been in a shirt and underwear all day. So far so good. GOAL: Fully pottytrained (not counting nights yet) by the end of the week.

In other news…we had our first snowfall this morning. The boys were very excited and trying to wait for it to accumulate so the could go outside and make a snowman. But sadly, by noon the sun had came out and most of the snow is now melted. Much to the boys dismay.

Glorianna is growing very fast. She’s trying to sit up, but still needs some support. She rolls everywhere she wants to go. I so need to get a babygate for the stairs. She’s been getting up on her hands and knees and rocking, but still hasn’t figured out how to actually crawl. So when she’s not rolling around the house, she scoots backwards like a little crawdad. Its really cute. She’ll be 7 months old in a few days…my how times flys.

We tried family picture attempt #2 last weekend. It was my neice’s 3rd birthday and since we were at her house for the party, we had my brother take some pictures of us. After several trys, we were able to have one that was decent out of the group and went with it.
