Daddy-Daughter Duet

I Love My Feet!

Evelyn loves her feet so much we made up a little song (to the tune of "I'm a little teapot")...

I'm a little baby, cute and sweet
I love to play with my little feet
When I get all happy hear me tweet
I'm so cute I can't be beat


or I'm such a wonderful treat
or Maybe someday I'll move to Crete

Visit with Amma & Papa

Happy Birthday, Papa!

Today Papa flew in from California and Amma and Papa took us out to dinner. We had a nice little visit.



Also today, Evelyn found her feet! She had both of them at one point, but I could only catch her in the act with the camera while she was holding one. So cute :)


And, according to Wii Fit, Evelyn weighs 10.8 lbs. :)

PT update: Day three (today) has gone fairly well. We had little accidents throughout the day, but Adeline catches herself going, stops and waits to get to the potty to finish. She even did this right when waking up from her nap. Her accident wasn't even big enough to get the sheet wet and right when I got her up she went quite a bit on the potty. I think this shows remarkable progress! Amma picked up a little pink potty from Ikea on her way to the airport to pick up Papa today and that's going to be our travel potty. We learned this evening at Outback that public big girl toilets are just a little too intimidating right now ;-). So we had one little accident at Outback - she kept telling us she needed to go so we took her 3 times... but then she had an accident back at her seat at the table. Hopefully the little pink potty will help with this ;-). She already likes to sit on it at home.

Potty Training

Adeline is officially, 100% potty training. We "threw away" all the diapers (and by "threw away" I mean put them into a box at the top of her closet... no way I'm throwing all of those away when #2 will be in them eventually!! :) and put her in underwear 100% of the time. She wore underwear for her nap yesterday - woke up dry! She wore underwear to bed for the first time last night, at the end of our first official day of training and only had one accident around 2am. After a day and a half she's already getting much better at telling me when she needs to go, and she knows that we always need to try before going to bed or taking a walk. She's doing really well. I am very proud of her.

Today we've been married 6 years.
Happy Anniversary to us :).

Songs

Sometimes Adeline will start singing and forget what song she started with. This morning she sang,

"Sweet Adeline, my flower, half an hour, VeggieTales!"

Heading Home

Today we flew home. This time we brought the car seat on the plane hoping Adeline would be able to sleep since she would have the comfort and familiarity of her seat. She didn't sleep, but it was better to have her contained :). Evelyn was good too. She slept most of the time, just as she did on the way out.

Adeline did manage to get some shut eye on the ride home from the airport. Since we didn't want to disturb her we simply unhooked the seat and brought it in with her in it. So sleepy...


Tomorrow it's back to normal life.
