The BEST Big Sister

Alli is an awesome big sister to Robbie. He is a lucky little boy to have her. She dotes on him as if he were her own. She loves to help out feeding and playing with her brother. We are so luck - there is absolutely no jealousy here!

Miss Alli has exciting news to share as well - She is all potty-trained! We have not had an accident in over 3 weeks - and is she proud!

The best part is that she did it herself. On Sunday about a month ago she said to me, "Mommy, I want to wear big girl undies." Well that is all I needed to hear - we put those undies on, ran out and bought stickers and pretty paper for potty charts and little "presents" - and the rest is history. Her big gift was moving from her toddler bed into her big twin bed with her new comforter. She loves it.

The only challenge now is learning to make sure the seat is down so she doesn't fall in! When they clean the toilets at school they leave the seat up to dry -- needless to say -- she has tested out that cold water on her bottom!

Robbie's dinner

Robbie has started eating food...he is a little piggy and a slob. He grabs the spoon and it is all we can do to prevent him from shoving it down his throat!

Jumping on the bandwagon....

Ok - so I am going to jump on the bandwagon and take a stab at this.... Ladies - you know who you are - I have so enjoyed following your blogs and seeing the kids in action (especially the wrestlemania match :-))....so.... I am going to try it out and share my family with all of you. Hope you enjoy - and don't make fun - I'm just a beginner!
