So things here have been moving right along. Sawyer started potty training this past week. I was a little worried about it cuz i have never done it before (not using the potty i've done that ;) ) i didn't know how to train "pottying" lol and thinking of buying pull ups was daunting, but i asked some of my good mommy friends and got some gerber training pants, i nerded out a little thinking "yay! i love cloth diapers and cloth training pants" i was totally excited to start but didn't really know how to start and after the first 2 days of running around with no pants on and quite a few accidents, quite a bit of cleaning up floors, washing pants and very little actual using the potty i was about to give up and say "let's try again later" phew man raising kids is sure a lot of work and teaching an old dog new tricks (*wink wink* aka the parents) hahaha. but after one afternoon back in diapers i went at it again and trained myself with success! woohoo! Sawyer has stayed dry during naps and has had two days of no accidents. (most accidents are my fault for forgetting anyways... I told you training :P) so we still have to reinforce it and i'm sure we'll have accidents to come but it's looking really great! ha
maisy is crawling forwards now and doing great! she doesn't tend to go long distances and have much of an urge to go exporing, so that's great, haven't lost her yet, or her get into much trouble. she doesn't get a little more frustrated now though because she thinks she has crawling down so she wants to walk. She's standing up on everything, always wanting you to hold her hands so she can be on her feet, and gets mad if you don't let her or you take to long. but then she's her happy self again smiling with her big ole grin while he's standing. soon i'll have 2 toddlers and i'm sure maisy will be getting hurt, while sawyer drags her around. hahaha maisy isn't quite as adventurous as sawyer, maisy is more content looking at everything around her and interacting with those things instead of seeing what's around the corner and above the fridge and behind the door like sawyer is. it's fun seeing the differences in the girls. they both or so wonderful and joyful (most the time) and cuteand i guess i'm not the only one to notice how cute they are. this weekend there was a baby expo in Lincoln, and they had a cutest baby contest that you could enter for free, she i entered both the girls. and sure enough Sawyer tied for first place. (I'm sure maisy had to be up there too). but i guess she gets a bunch of prizes and cash and is going to be in our local paper! how is that for fun! ha... I'll have more information later
