Accomplishment

I can barely contain my excitement!!!!! Today Madelyn went peepee on the potty twice! I always knew this day would come, but now that it is here, I can barely contain myself. The first time she did it was after her bath, just like before. The second time was this afternoon I casually said, "Do you want to go peepee on the potty?" She walked to her room, I got her bottoms off, she sat down and I tried to look like I wasn't paying attention, and she peed! If you don't have kids or have never experienced this, you don't know the excitement, and you probably think I am crazy for getting so excited, but I really am! She is getting so big, and I am so excited to think she is actually potty training! She got a reward of a half a small box of Nerds, (from trick or treating) and she was all happy. It's pretty convenient that we just had trick or treating, because I don't have to buy rewards!

I keep thinking I am feeling the baby move, too. I know it's early, and they are not strong kicks by any stretch, but they are little twinges, I guess you could say. I am absolutely loving it and can't wait for the baby kick like crazy!

It's been a great day. I hope everyone is having a great day, too.

P.S. If you are reading this, leave me a comment. I want to see who reads it and who doesn't.

Hi Raders!

I haven't logged on in a while so I'm a little late with this comment. I logged on hoping for an update on your pregnancy - glad to hear you're feeling the baby move already.
I'm very excited for you (and jealous) about Madelyn's potty training success. Great job, Madelyn!
Madison is still not interested :-(
Oh well, I'll keep trying.

Take care,
Erin
