Busy Days
Thad informed me that my blog was lacking in recent posts. I guess he gets online every so often to read about what the kids have been up to. So I thought I should get around to posting something. Then I noticed I hadn't done pictures for a while...so this post is mostly for the sake of photo updates.
Here is Keziah (right) playing with her buddy Charlotte (left), one of the little girls I babysit. It's kind of like having twins, only I only have to get up with one of them in the night, not both.
Keziah and Charlotte holding hands. Kezzy is interested in the camera, Charlotte is interested in Raquelle off to the side, who is copying me trying to get the babies to smile.
This is how Raquelle spent the Friday after a rough Thursday night. Keziah was awake until almost midnight. Titus woke up at midnight screaming and would not calm down. We finally got him calmed down and back in bed at 3 Am. Kezzy woke up hungry at 3:30 AM. Got her back to bed at 4 AM. My alarm went off at 5 to get up and get Lauren at the door, and then Titus was back up crying again at 5:30. Raquelle spent most of the night crying and saying "My brother! What's wrong with my brother!" Obviously, everyone except Kezzy was tired the next day. So we spent the day laying around watching movies.
And here is a random picture of Keziah that I decided to include because she is so cute. By the way, that is a 12 month outfit she is wearing. She is quite the chunk. I'm having to put her in larger clothes because of her chubbiness and then just roll the sleves or pants up to fit. Her 4 month check up is on Wednesday. I am going to guess she is about 17 lbs...similor in size to Titus at that age.
And here is Titus AKA "Captain Underpants", as his daddy has started calling him. Titus had no accidents on Saturday, and neither of us took him potty either. He is insisting on doing it himself. When he needs to go, he just stops what he is doing and strips in the middle of the living room and then runs into the bathroom and takes himself potty. Then he needs help putting his underwear back on.
One more thing with potty training...we upped the rewards and I've made a big deal to Titus that he gets 1 candy if he goes pee on the toilet, and 2 candies if he poops. Over the course of the weekend, he pooped twice on the toilet! It took Raquelle 6 months after we put her in underwear before she pooped on the toilet! Titus is definitely getting the hang of things. Hopefully, soon I will be able to put pants on him! For some reason, he does great when he is in his underwear, but when I put pants on him, it's like he forgets that he needs to stop and use the toilet...and that's when he has his accidents.
