Big Breakthrough

Well, this is pretty cool. Yesterday, Emily had her first full day without a diaper! Technically, we put one on her when we went to the park to meet a friend for a couple hours, but otherwise, she didn't need it. And what's even more amazing - she slept through the night last night without a diaper. No accidents!! And furthermore, we're almost done with the day today, and still no diaper!

Today's New Word

We went to Cafe Delicias for dinner, and the twins sat in a booth - no booster seat or anything. They're still a bit young, but Cafe D. already had other babies using them. Anyway, Emily was next to me - I was on the outside of the booth and she was on the inside near the wall. I pointed to a space between the wall and the booth and said "hole." She repeated it, so that was her new word for today.

Also, on Sunday, Emily wanted to sit on the Potty Chair. She didn't do anything, but it was the first time she said she needed to use it. About 10 minutes after we took her off, she went potty in her diaper. So, she's getting close.

The Potty Chair

As you might guess from the title, we have potty trainer for the twins. Literally minutes ago, Ella used it for the first time tonight. Sarah was giving them a bath when Ella stood up and indicated she had to use the potty. Sure enough, she went # 2. A few minutes later, after she was in the bath again, she said she had to use it again. This time she went # 1. Of course, we're very excited. And she did it while Emily was in the bath watching, so I'm sure Emily will use it soon. Maybe even tonight - the twins are still in the bath with Sarah now.
