Potty Time

If you are wondering where their pants are we were potty training. I am happy to say it has been a success. We have a few things to work on, but overall it has been a smooth process. If you have been around them during this process you have had the opportunity to actually see the results. Yes, that is correct, they love to run around with their potty showing everyone their pee pee and poo poo.

This past weekend we made a trip up to Cleveland. We made a few bathroom breaks both ways (one for mommy) and I am happy to say we had no accidents. It was a full house in the car, but we all had a good time. Grady is obsessed with big trucks. I can officially say Grady said big trucks 111 times from 71 to the Lake.

Neighborhood Party

Our neighborhood had a party tonight. Jen and Raegan went with us since the guys were golfing. It was the first day the kids have left the house since we started potty training last Friday. I loaded the potty in the trunk and off we went. The kids had a great time and the best news is we had ZERO accidents. I did have them sit on the potty before we went home in order to avoid any accidents in the car. Raegan helped the kids go through the inflatable obstacle course. Surprisingly Grady loved it and took off. Gwen did pretty good too, but never made it to the big slide at the end. Raegan was lucky enough to win a prize at the end. Overall it was a great event just down the street for free. It does not get much better than that!

Grady smiled as soon as he saw Raegan, he really missed her!

It is my fault Gwen was slow, I had to put her in a dress...

By the end everyone wanted to hold Raegan's hand!

My little dare devil!

Hurry!

Photo Friday

As always, Gwen had too much cake celebrating Papa's birthday!

I could try to explain this, but why bother.

Watching tv, having a snack.

This is the only way I can read the paper on Sunday. They were pretending to be homeless!

C being the great big brother he is, wanted Grady to sit on his lap and read a book. As you can see, it was not as easy as it sounded! I tried to explain to C that Grady was also a big brother. A little bit more confusing since Gwen is technically bigger!
C took Grady on a rid in the jeep!

Gwen wanted to hold baby Mara all day long!

While singing in the car I turned around and found Grady plugging his ears!

Two Year Check Up

The two year check up was interesting. Grady was ok, until they called us into a room, then he was upset until about 5 minutes before we left. He was crying so loud, I am sure the entire office heard him. Poor little guy. We discussed the twins diet with the doctor. They are not necessarily picky eaters, but they just do not eat a lot of volume. She suggested a few new options we could mix in that were healthy and calorie rich. It is a struggle because I think I could put 5 pounds on Gwen pretty quickly by feeding her chocolate, but that is not really the greatest diet to teach your child. Grady's growth has been a small concern of mine for a while now. At first the doctor said we would do a weight check in 3 months and then proceed, possibly seeing a specialist at age 3. About 3 hours after our appointment the doctor called me at home and said after discussing his case with the other doctors, she would recommend we see an endocrinologist now. He is still on the charts, but given Gwen's growth pattern, she felt it was better to consult a specialist. I have not broke the news to Grady. He is going to be devastated that he will have to go to the doctor again. I already pumped him up before our appointment that if he promised not to get sick he would not have to go back for a year. Here are the stats......

I do not have many pictures of the kids together since they never sit still, so this is the best I have. We have been enjoying the fact that GG has moved to Columbus and has a pool. Gwen is my little fish. We are working on Grady....

Cookies!

Luckily Jen was there to capture photos! The kids had so much fun!
