We now have a little boy who is wearing pull-ups. This transition has been really, really wonderful both for Charlie and his parents. We are no longer in battles over putting on a diaper. Before the pull-ups, he was wanting to lay out his diaper just right, sit on it and hook the straps - all by himself. This wasn't an easy or quick process. Now, with pull-ups he is loving getting them on himself and being a big boy. We also bought him his first package of big-boy underwear today. We are well on our way to having a potty trained boy before baby number two comes along. YES!
If you couldn't guess from the previous comments, we have a very strong-willed child, who all our parents say we deserve, in some form or another. Apparently, Tom and I are stubborn and strong-willed??? Who knew. The favorite saying now around here is "my do it." or even "I do it." This takes a bit more patience from us, but we are attempting to take this in stride.
The last bit of news from our home is why we haven't had a blog post in a while. Back on August 23rd, Tom arrived home from work to find our home broken into and all our electronics, some jewelry and a few other odds and ends stolen. Needless to say, that has been a big pain in terms of details as well as some sadness over losing all of our baby and toddler videos. You see, they even stole the back-up (external hard drive). So, we are slowly getting back up and running and getting a blog post up.
Blessings to you all.
