I Hate to Say it Out Loud...
for fear of being jinxed, but I think it is official...LUKE IS POTTY TRAINED!!!
This morning sealed the deal for me. I had planned to shower before Wally left for work, but the sleep was so good this morning that it just didn't happen. So...I tried to confine Luke into somewhat of an enclosed area while I took a quick shower, but he can open doors so there really is only so much you can do. He stayed within my view the whole time and just as I was turning the shower off, I saw him run out of the room. I walked into the bathroom down the hall, and what do you know?!?! He was climbing off the toilet saying, "I pooped Mommy!". I seriously have never been so happy :) He went all on his own (luckily I got there in time to wipe!). He knew he had to go and went - yippee!!!
Today marks 2 full weeks of no diapers! He has not had one.single.accident at daycare and has pooped on the potty there just about daily. The teachers are constantly telling me how impressed they are. They have all been doing this a long time and not once have they ever had a child (especially a boy) poop on the potty the first week, let alone the first day. He woke up from a nap early the other day because he had to go and proceeded to give the play-by-play as he was going - hilarious story!!!
We were brave last Saturday night and went to church and out to eat and he did AWESOME!!! This was his first time using a public bathroom and he had no qualms about it, in fact he was fascinated and went 3 times (ugh!).
As soon as we hear him in the morning we had been going in his room and always asking him right away if he needed to go potty. Now, I say good morning and dilly dally a bit, but the first thing he says is "I go pee pee." He seriously is dry most mornings so I am contemplating going to underwear at night, but we'll see.
He gets it! He knows when he needs to go and knows he needs to go on the potty. And he absolutely LOVES flushing so that's a bonus :)
So proud of my little (BIG!) boy!!!
He's pretty proud too :)
I will save you from any further potty stories (unless they are just too good not to tell)!

Feeling All A-Flutter
Yesterday I felt the baby for the first time this pregnancy! I am feeling little flutters (sort of like butterflies)! I have been trying to figure out for the past two days if I am feeling what I think I am feeling and today, it was confirmed. That wonderful feeling in my belly is none other than our little Peanut!
This begins the best time of the pregnancy for me - there is nothing better than feeling the baby in your belly. On those days where I get so busy at work or at home that I forget I am even pregnant will now be gone. Peanut will not let me forget about him/her anymore. I love having that constant reminder that he/she is there and that all is well!
So bring on the flutters and the rib jabs and the kicks to the bladder - I can't wait!!!

What's in a Name?
Luke used to say our names, Wally and Amy, quite often, but he hasn't lately. So I thought we would start talking names again.

Possessed Potty
Seriously, this potty is possessed or we have a ghost who is also potty training! The music will go off randomly all the time, even in the middle of the night. It is actually really funny when either Wally or I are actually going to the bathroom (on the big toilet of course!) and the little potty will go off. We all cheer for whoever is in there - ha!
