I am SO SO SO proud of my boys. David has been sleeping all night for the last few nights. Today he slept until after 6 a.m. What a good boy.

I had to give Adam a bath this morning and while we were waiting for the tub water he wanted to sit on his potty that we had brought up from the basement. He kept sitting and then getting up to check and see if anything was in the potty. Later, before his nap I asked him if he wanted to go to the potty and he went upstairs and sat on the potty. He played with his bath toys for 20 minutes and kept checking to see if there was anything in the potty. There wasn't so I finally convinced him that was enough for one sitting and it was naptime. He wanted to stay (just like his daddy). Then we went to dinner and when we came home I asked him if he wanted to use the potty. He went straight upstairs to the bathroom. He sat on the potty and checked and there was nothing. He got up and shut the bathroom door, sat down and started going potty!!! I was SO PROUD! I called Mike and he told Adam how proud he was. We were so excited and Adam started smiling and clapping. He got some M&Ms and called his grandparents to tell them about his accomplishment.

I know we're nowhere near potty trained, but I was just so excited that he understood the concept. He's not my little baby anymore. Thank goodness I have cute and cuddly little David who is full of smiles and coos to give me my baby fix and Adam is teaching us new things every day.

I love my boys.

Mama

I went pee pee in the potty. I like to play legos while I sit on the potty. Then mommy dumped my pee pee in the toilet and I got to flush. Yeah!! And yummy m&ms afterwords.

Maybe I'll try it again tomorrow. Mommy bought me some underwear, but I like wearing them as a hat better.

Love,

The Potty Master

Well, since mom and dad are SO busy they I have to blog about my own stats at my last check up. Man, talk about second born syndrome. I'm writing my own baby book! Anyway, I weighed in at a whopping 20 lbs 3 oz. That is 2 pounds larger than my brother was. There is now only 10 pounds that separates Adam and I. Watch out Adam...I told you not to pick on me. I will outgrow you! I am 26 and 3/4" in length and 50th percentile in head size. Again..no jokes! Yesterday I ate 42 oz in bottles. Daddy says he is going to put me on baby weight watchers. Normally I only eat 30 oz but I couldn't help it. I was SO hungry. Now mommy is refusing to feed me when I wake up in the middle of the night because she says I am getting too used to midnight snacks. Last night I screamed at her in protest but then I don't remember what happened. I woke up in my crib. Drats...foiled again!

I took my first airplane ride last week! So much fun! I was much better behaved than my brother was, but I guess he did alright. Flying just made me sleepy. I would sit in the front of the stroller and Adam would bang against my seat. He thinks it's funny to push me around. You just wait Adam!

Okay, well I have a busy sleeping and eating schedule. Time for me to go!

Nigh nigh!

David

P.S. I also ate solid food for the first time today. I didn't care for it. I just cried until my parents put me to bed.

I am getting hooked on this sleep schedule of mine. Three naps a day. Gotta love nap time. Mommy wants me to stop waking up at 4:11 a.m. every day. She would be happy if I would cut out my 4 a.m. snack. I'll get there. Adam has been an amazingly good brother lately. He is quite entertaining. Okay, speaking of he is whining now because he wants to blog for me. Forget it..I'm going back to bed.

Love,

Baby Davey
