Finally!

We think a huge milestone has passed....and I hope I don't jinx myself as I type this....
Over the weekend Lilly has taken herself to the potty to do her business....more than once! The first time when we realized she was out of the room and upstairs alone, we yelled out to her. "Lilly where are you?" "Pee pee Mommy" she answered. I thought the worst....I thought my bathroom would be covered from top to bottom with toilet paper, Princess pullups and of course...pee. Thankfully it wasn't. Craig dashed upstairs to find her up on her stool giving herself a smartie for doing such a good job. :o)
Yes....I cried.
After a few times of her doing this, us dancing and singing and high fiving....I realized...my little girl is growing up....and she can do it on her own. At 2 1/2 years of age....does she need me anymore?????
Kidding.
But wow....Angie was right. When she is ready...she will surprise you, wake up one morning and do it on her own. I guess that is why she has 3 boys and is such a great Mom. (Yes I am a kiss-ass.)

Tanner the Tigger is bouncing along quite nicely. No, still no teeth...(soon please) but he is soooo anxious to get up and walk. He gets quite upset and frustrated when you walk by him. Or if he sees Lilly run by him. We help him walk all the time (Thank Garsh Craig had back surgery) and the hippo helps him out a lot too. If you put him down to crawl afterwards (cause our backs or legs ACHE) he lets you know how unimpressed he is.
He doesn't crawl backwards too much anymore...he has finally firgured out to crawl frontwards. Silly boy.

It is Superbowl Sunday. We are heading over to MBs and Vince's for dinner. There TV is bigger than ours....wise choice...and I don't have to clean up afterwards....well as much....;o)
So, Go Colts,
Cheers
