Potty Training Helpers

Once yet again I have bravely decided to embark upon the adventure known as "potty training." So far with little success, despite Bronwen's sometime-willingness to sit on her potty. The child has a bladder the size of a water tower, I am convinced, since she went from 8-1:30 today with nary a drop in the potty or elsewhere. I finally had to put a diaper on her for nap time. Anyhow, over the weekend, T.J. tried to help as well, sitting and reading to her while she sat.

Amusingly enough, one of the stories she wants read to her is called, "Little Pea."

Today, even Lila tried to encourage her sister to go in the potty. Bronwen liked having Lila there, but still...nothing came out.

Happy Days

Aunt Jana sent the girls another package--I wouldn't have posted this necessarily, but I find the funniest part is Lila in the background.

Birdwatching

The chirps you hear in the background are the hummingbirds coming to our feeder. They will come right up despite our being out there.

Sleepy Time

Nap time is always a special time at the house--the girls go down, I turn off the phone, and we all enjoy some peace before the hectic evening.

Lila has been bursting out of her swaddle lately, so I ordered a new, pink one. I think it's her color.
She was a little lonely, so Cassie decided to keep her company.
Bronwen, on the other hand, likes her friends much closer. Here Mr. Owl is kissing her goodnight. I want to add that this is exactly how I found her--I didn't place him here.

Towers

Bronwen really enjoys building towers. She uses all sorts of things to do this--her Alphabet blocks, her books, and this day she used her MegaBlocks.

Note the colors/patterns are all of her choosing. She really likes to group her colors together.
I guess tower building can really wear a gal out.
