Potty-training

Age at which my mother-in-law says all three of her boys finally agreed to potty-training: 2 1/2
Number of days over age 2 1/2 Jonas is today: 6
Number of diapers worn today: 2 (one upon awakening, one at bedtime)
Number of pairs of underwear worn today: 3 (plus 1 pull-up at naptime)
Number of different pants worn today: 4
Number of loads of laundry I did today: 2
Number of minutes between each trip to the bathroom: between 60 and 75
Number of times he actually peed in the potty: 4 or 5
Approximate number of dollars we'll save each month in diapers when Jonas gets this figured out: 50

Having your 2 1/2 + 6 days - old wake up one morning and announce, with quite a bit of conviction, that he no longer needs to wear a diaper: PRICELESS!!

December

Here are some miscellaneous December pictures.
I hope the first two aren't signs of how much trouble we may be in with son #2!

Miles, the climber. And you can't tell from the picture, but that is actually a rocking chair that he is standing in!

Miles helps with the recycling.

Dixie lounges in the living room. I think someone may have forgotten to tell her that she is actually a dog.

Grandma - the sweater fits!

Decorating the tree.

The best picture I could get of them in front of the tree together!

And finally, a video of Jonas singing his ABC's...thank goodness for Marie, because I certainly hadn't thought to teach him that yet!
