No More Diapers!

Hurray! The last two weeks have been diaper free, With the exception of Night Time. I don't want to get to excited in case we have a relapse. It has just been too good to last. We decided to bite the bullet and put Corbin in big boy pants even though he refused to sit on the potty. At first I pestered him every 15 minutes to sit on the potty. He got really upset and refused to even "Sit and 'Try" as we moms like to say. After an hour or so he ran up and said "Mommy, some tinkles want to come out!" (That is our word for Pee) I sat him on the potty and he went, and has been going since. He even has been waking up in the night to go and having dry diapers in the morning. It is just great! I guess he was ready. I took him to Kohls and helped him buy some Big Boy Pants. He choose Bob the Builder and Lightning McQueen. I figure if he loses motivation I will start using rewards or a potty chart but for now we are going Great. Once again Hurray!


So that is the update of our life, nothing too exciting to read about. I finally got around to editing a few movies of the boys. I hope you will be able to view them. I went to a yard sale a couple weeks ago and got the Ball Popper toy for a quarter. Great buy and the boys love it. We almost bought the exact toy for Christmas and would have paid over $30. I love yard sales!


We also found a boys bike and lots of other great deals, one of these being a Wiggles movie and their music CD. Corbin wanted to listen to the Cd a million times and loved dancing. Carter thought it was pretty fun too. Here is a movie of them dancin' with "The WIGGLES!!!"



Carter is the type of baby who wants to eat EVERYTHING! Especially if it comes from moms plate. He stuffs it all in his mouth and can barely chew. I have to be really careful to only give him a few pieces of food at a time so he doesn't end up choking. These pictures and video are from our Sunday lunch. Carter's always gets messy when he is eating. Corbin laughs at him and says " Carter is a Daddy, He has whiskers like Daddy!" It was so cute. They make me laugh.

Carter's whiskers

Our friend Micheal came over to play in the sand box with our boys. The babies just Love running the sand through their fingers and toes. They have not even tried to eat it...yet.

We were in a hurry one night and so didn't have time to fill up the tub. Carter got a spit bath in the sink and loved it so much we just had to pause and get a few cute pictures.

That's great that Corbin finally potty trained. I am having the same problem that Gabby won't even sit on the potty.

Those are some cute pictures. I wish it would warm up here so I could send the kids outside to play.

I love reading your blog, especially since you are so far away and I don't get to see you very much.

Very cute pictures and videos! Don't you love the silly things they do! We have never given Roman a bath in the sink before but the other day I set him in the sink while I was cleaning up my makeup that he broke all over the bathroom and he turned the water on himself (he was in his towel!) I never think to take pictures at moments like that.

You're an inspiration. Logan wants nothing to do with the potty and we're due to start preschool in the fall. I'm not sure what to do! I'm glad Corbin's making the transition well!
