Just another week

Monday started off our week with a little bit of excitement!  Grandma and Grandpa came to visit!!!  WAHOO.  Girl was so excited she refused to nap until after they left.  They actually came so I could bring Boy  to the doctor without having to bring both of them.  It was SO nice to go out with just one kid during the day.  I forgot how much easier that is!!  Boy weighed 15 pounds 8 ounces on Monday.  The doctor just thinks he's a big boy.  The nurse said to keep and eye on it and call if he gains that much in the next 2 weeks!  I'm hoping he is just a big guy.  I was looking through Girl's baby book adding some more things and I noticed she didn't weigh that much until she was 6 months old!   It's amazing how different kids can be.

Nights have continued to go well.  Boy SOMETIMES wakes for a 2am feeding but otherwise he goes until 5am.  He goes to bed anywhere from 8-10 at night.  I like to tell Jared that Boy is trying out to be his alarm clock.  Jared says he has the job ... now if only we could change the settings for days we want to sleep in!!  Once Boy has had his 5am feeding he sleeps until 8.  Girl wakes up at 7 EVERY day, so I have one hour to feed her, get her dressed, brush her teeth, and do her hair.  I am usually VERY successful and even have some time to play with her before he wakes up ready for a diaper change and breakfast.

Potty training is still going great.  No regression.  She does have accidents like every kid, but 1 every other day is awesome.  I don't expect perfection until next week. HAHAHA.  Okay maybe 3-4 months ...  One thing that is wonderful with her being trained: less laundry.  I was doing diapers every other day when they were both diapered, but now i can go back to every 3-4.  I still do them every other day because I have the time, but I don't HAVE to.  It's great!!!

I've gotten really strict with making Girl eat what we are eating and she's doing much better with it every day.  Yesterday she ate more sweet potato than I did.  Of course she has ALWAYS loved sweet potato, but wowza!  She also enjoyed her turkey (instead of hamburger) stroganoff yesterday.  She did so great.  She is even eating sandwiches with me at lunch time.  I like that she is eating just as healthy as I am.

We haven't had anything else out of the ordinary going on this week.  Same old same old.  Maybe I can come up with something fun to do this weekend.  This darn snow just has to stop falling!
