Walking and Potty Training

We finally have a healthy household! I hope I haven't spoken too soon, but for now, everyone is feeling much better. We spent Memorial Day at our good friends, Ray & Marissa's. They have a pool and the weather was perfect all weekend long. We jump on any chance to go for a swim. Unfortunately, it was just Adam & Mason taking a dip in the pool, while Taylor & I watched from the sidelines. She was still getting over her ear infection and I didn't want to risk any setbacks in my recovery.

As I mentioned last week, Taylor is walking. She started walking at the beginning of May. A few steps here and there, but she was doing it all on her own. Miss Independent wouldn't dare hold our hands and walk, she is the kind of girl that would be sitting in the middle of the room and stand up on her own and start walking. That's my girl!

When we were in Houston, her walking really took off. Adam was so surprised to see the difference when we arrived home last week. Most parents dread the day when your kids start crawling and walking, but I love it. It is so much easier and I love the independence of not having to carry her everywhere. She doesn't weigh but 20lbs, so she is light in comparison to Mason at that age.

Potty training Mason is in our near future. He is SOOOOOOOOO ready and so am I. We picked out new Toy Story underwear and we are going to have a "No More Diapers" party. He will proudly be tossing all diapers in the trash. Then I will need all the prayers I can get. I'm sure I'll be writing about it.

Glad to hear you guys are feeling better. We have been sick in our house alot too this spring! No fun. Sending prayers your way with the potty training. If he is ready it will be easy, once Colt was ready he was potty trained in 1 week. However, I started trying to potty train when he turned 2 and he wasn't ready until about 2.5 so I spent 6 months pulling my hair out because he wouldn't get it.:) Then one day he just decided he was ready and that was the end of it. Good luck. Keep us posted!
