Potty Training and Rolling Over!
We've had an exciting week here!
Ashley has now been potty trained and accident free for over a week!
Caitlin has been smiling for a few weeks now but her smiles are getting much bigger and you can see her dimples (though, maybe she just has one on the right or that's just the one I notice)
She's becoming quite active during the times she is awake! She turns all around her crib to the point I had to put in the breathable bumper since she got her legs between the bars one morning! If you put her feet against something she can really move herself and scoot and then today, she seems to have mastered rolling from back to belly! It seems way too soon for that!
All her activity is paying off because she has been consistently sleeping 10 hours at night for the last few days!
Hope everyone is enjoying this beautiful weather!

Caitlin's Two Month Appointment
Caitlin had her 2 month check up and shots today. She was 10 pounds 15 ounces and 23 inches. Just like Ashley, she's tall and skinny with a big head! She is about 50th percentile for weight and 75th for height. Of course, the dr always reminds me that the height and head can be off since it's not as accurate of a measurement at this age. She had three shots and did very well. There were two nurses so they could do two shots simultaneously and then did the third. She did better than I expected, only crying for a few seconds after each time. I remember Ashley would cry until we were to the car!
Ashley was with us at the appointment and was very nervous since she hasn't had shots in a long time. Ashley pretends to give shots with her dr kit she got at her birthday and when we'd pretend to cry after shots she'd tells us they feel nice. I tried to prepare her ahead of time that Caitlin would be getting shots to make sure she didn't get sick just like she did when she was a baby. I explained that Caitlin would cry after but she would be ok. Ashley was like a deer in headlights as Caitlin started to cry since she's never cried like that before.
Caitlin is happy as any other day smiling as soon as we got home. I just have to remember to watch how I hold her since her legs will be sore for a couple days!

Potty Training Success!
Who knew potty training could be so exciting (oh how things change when you are a parent)! After a week of wearing undies at home (by Ashley's choice for the most part) and pull ups or diapers when out, Ashley had 3 full days of no pee accidents and even stayed dry when going out! Today was extra exciting since Ashley went #2 in the potty! There was some bribery involved for that one, but she did it! Hopefully we are done with diapers, with the exception of naps and overnight since not much wakes her up. Now, just 3 more years of Caitlin in diapers :)
