Potty Training is in full force at our house and has been for several long months. We seem to have turned a corner, though. Elena does not need a diaper at night, and yesterday they both took off their pants to go to the bathroom in the potty. For non-parents, this may not sound very exciting, but to us it shows that they can anticipate the event, and hold it, to actually do all the steps.
Another milestone: last night at 3:30 AM Amanda woke up (and woke me up) because she needed to go to the potty. She did, and then we both went back to bed. That was exciting for the Potty Training milestone, but not so thrilling to get up at 3:30 to participate in it.
Hence, we will start looking for some beds to replace their cribs. The cribs have been great. They are still in fantastic condition and they both like them. But they'll need beds they can get out of themselves without needing wake up their sleepy parents.
