No, I will not lay on the changing table and get my diaper changed

What a big boy!

There are certain times that JM and I are struck by how much Judah has grown and what a boy he is instead of a toddler. This day after Thanksgiving was definitely one of those days!

Thanksgiving

Harper and Grandma

We had a great time at Thanksgiving with my mom here and JM's parents and Grandma. Matt and Sara also got to visit on their way to see her family. Judah had so much fun that the day after everyone left he passed out asleep at the lunch table!

Harper Standing Up

Harper's new trick for the November was pulling up on everything and I do mean everything.

Potty training

In November we started potty training Judah. My mom came up to help with Harper and we had a potty party. We had cupcakes, crackers, juice, and milk. Judah especially loved the party hats and party favors and the idea of the rewards he got for going potty. Potty training started out really rough and after the third day I was ready to break all the rules and put him back in diapers. By the beginning of the next week, he was finally telling us he needed to go. He has been in big boy underwear for over a month now and has had only a handful of accidents! We put him in diapers or pull-ups for naptime and bedtime but he stays dry most naptimes. He asks not to have to wear a diaper for naps but I don't think I am ready to go there!

First Bath

Now that Harper is sitting up so well, we put the kids in the bath together for the first time. So cute!!

It's only appropriate since it is almost Christmas that I am now posting Halloween pics. I am behind again!

Riverwalk in Columbia

We went to the Riverwalk in Columbia in October. Judah had so much fun running around and we had some pretty places to make pictures of the kiddos.
