Finally Updating

Okay, I have been horrible about updating my blog. Things have been really crazy at work and things have been busy at home too. Brody is still doing really great in his big boy bed. His only issue now is that he has fallen out of bed a couple of times. He is such a restless sleeper and is constantly flipping and moving while he is sleeping and he just rolls right off the bid. I am thinking about getting one of those bed rails from the store so it will go across the middle part of the bed and hopefully keep him in. Ted doesn't think we need to do that because he said Brody will get used to it. Poor thing.

We are also getting ready to start potty training. We have been introducing him to the potty for a while now, but he has not yet started to use it. Yesterday, we put him in big boy underwear and he was really excited, but he peed in it within the first 10 minutes. Here is a picture of him standing proud in his Elmo undies....

I have heard some good things about this method called the 3 day potting training method. I haven't really researched it yet, but I have read about the success rate and it seems interesting. I think we are going to wait to really start doing it until he is in the next class up in daycare. Once he moves into that class, they will work with him everyday on it as well and hopefully that will help. Right now, it is hard for us to try and do something when he is in daycare for a majority of the day and they wouldn't be doing the same thing. I am hoping that like every other transition in his life up until this point, it will be quick and easy! HA! One can hope, right?

Let's see....Molly has rolled over from her belly to her back twice, but is constantly rolling from her back to her belly. Not sure what is taking her so long going back the other way, but her pediatrician isn't concerned. She is trying to sit up and can sit up a little now. Here are a couple of pictures. I love her facial expression in the last one!ure....

Here is a picture of Ethan playing his game and Brody "playing with him." Ethan gives him one of his remotes and he acts like he is the one playing.

Molly standing with her Daddy.....she is getting so big!

Look at those rolls on her arm...

Ethan and his little sister. He is such a good big brother and they light up when they see him!

Brody and Pop-Pop......I can totally hear his laugh just by looking at this picture!

Hi, (Beautiful children by the way :) When we transitioned Connah into a bed, he fell out a few times, so we put a rolled up blanket under the edge of the mattress so it was slightly tilted up.... He didn't fall out again after that :)
