My girls are growing up so quickly

I have done a terrible job keeping track of my girls milestones, but my New Year's resolution is to do better. So here we go.


Josie is now rolling from front to back and back to front as well as starting to scoot. She is a very happy baby most of the time. Recently she started showing some signs that she may be ready for some solids. She went from sleeping through the night to waking 3-4 times a night and nursing for 30 minutes at a time. She is fixated on us when we eat and she has lost her tongue thrust reflex. So we tried her on some sweet potatos... Not good. She didn't nurse a whole lot that night but she woke quite often with the stinkiest toots. The next night we passed on the solids and we were back to waking to nurse 3-4 times a night. So we tried some carrots and success. (Happy grin) She did great only waking up twice twice, and no gas. I gave her carrots again last night and she did well again.

We are still cloth diapering with Josie and absolutely love it. The early potty training was going well...until... it clicked with Ava a couple days after we started, she was in the living room dancing around when she stopped tore off her diaper while running to the bathroom then proceeded to sit on the potty and tinkle. What an exciting moment for her and us as well. Since then she has gone diaperless whenever running around the house. There have been a few accidents but who wouldn't expect that with a little girl who has just turned two. However the early potty training has somewhat been put to the side since Ava really needs the attention more on that end at the moment. I just can't believe how far along she has come in just 3 weeks. This morning she poopooed then after flushing said "Bye bye poopoo". I have no idea where it came from, but it was too cute!

I plan to give Ava a few weeks so that the novelty wares off a bit, then starting the early potty training again by the time Josie is 6 months.
