Haley uses the potty at church

Today Haley woke up just before 8:30, which is right before when my alarm was going to sound for church.  She came to bed with us until I could bear it no longer.  She ate a pancake while we showered and got ready for church.  Emily also woke up and sat in her bouncer chair for a while.  Haley peed on the potty before church and she has been doing so well out in public, but we thought we would rather play it safe and make sure she wore a diaper.  She really doesn't like wearing them anymore, so we put a panny on her and then a diaper over top.  We also brought the Dora seat with us to church in case she would ask to use the potty.  After the sermon, I went to pick her up from the nursery where she had been playing nicely.  I told her we were gonna try to use the potty and we went in and she peed right away on the potty.  I figured then she was safe enough to not have to put the diaper back on so she just spent the rest of the time with just pannies. On the way home we stopped by Walmart so Katelyn could run in and pick up some flowers for a baby shower she was going to.  Two couples from our church are due about the same time, so they were having a joint shower.  Down here, I have heard of co-ed showers, meaning that the men are invited too.  It's kinda weird, so I was glad to hear that this was not one of those... Haley had some lunch and sat on the potty to go pupu which she did.  Then she went to bed for a nap.  Emily ate and fell asleep in the swing so Katelyn just topped her off before she left and I stayed home with them.  Emily slept for over an hour after Katelyn left.  Haley lasted even longer.  Emily was fussy when she woke up so we went outside and waited for Haley to wake up.  Once that happened it was only about 30 minutes before mommy came home so I put Haley on the potty and gave her some goldfish crackers while she watched Elmo on the ipad.  Emily was really not happy at this point and I tried to make her a bottle which failed.  At last I figured she was only calm outside so I stood on the front porch with the front door open and watched Haley in the kitchen. Mommy came home to the rescue soon after and we all just hung out and tried to play for a little while as we waited for Haley to pee.  Then they went out to a park while I replaced a headlight on the civic and went to Pizza King with the LAS guys to meet some of the prospective pledges.  Katelyn said they played till it got dark and most people left so they didn't really feel too safe there anymore and came home.  Haley ate some dinner and then they played in the den until bedtime.  Haley went pee pee on the potty twice.  She wasn't sitting there the whole time either, she just said when she had to go and then went.

Haleyism: Now that Haley is pretty well on her way to being potty trained she says "Emily Blacgh!" whenever she sees us change a poopie diaper as if she hadn't been doing that very thing a week ago.
Emilyism: Emily still has not rolled over in case anyone was wondering.

Something interesting off to their left, your right.




Sad



It really wasn't that dark, the flash just made it look like it was

  1. David, how do you spell "panny"? And a comment for yesterday's blog. Most of us have seen the before picture of the closet. I'm excited to see the after picture! Please send one.

    Hurray for Haley and her mastering a hard-to-learn skill she will use for the rest of her life!!! That's my girl!
