milestone catchup....

~about a week ago Violet started this crazy super-baby style push-up...she is so strong, she would completely lift her entire body off the ground...everyone who saw it was amazed:)...it wasn't long after that she started actually getting up on all 4's and rocking!!! just shy of turning 5 months old! Having babies that are pretty much attached to me until they become mobile and get a taste of a bit of freedom...unlike most people, i LOVE it when they start crawling/walking...its defiantly a milestone i very much look forward too (weaning, starting food, leaving me for pre-school...not so much:)...
~if we are friends on facebook....i obsessively try to get advice on how to handle my high maintenance sleeper (piper ann seaton)...so much so that it has been overlooked that Violet is an AMAZING sleeper! And since she sleeps in her own bed (bassinet) much better then her sister ever did (as in she ACTUALLY does;) we decided to pack up the co-sleeper...and set up the crib!!!! We had to re-arrange our room a bit to fit it, but i actually think we like it better now:) She is sound asleep right now in her very first big-girl bed:) Eventually we really want Piper and Violet to share rooms...but we are not in any rush. I think she likes it:)...

~a little over a month ago we were at our new library looking over the movies... my eye caught a movie that a friend of mine had mentioned..."Potty Power!" we were not ready to dive into hard core potty training yet... but i thought we should check it out. When we got home i pulled her potty chair out to the living room (just in case she felt motivated;) and popped in the dvd...within minutes she was ripping off her diaper saying that she had "Potty Power!!!" and went pee on the potty! And I'm not kidding...since that moment she has had underwear on for every waking moment!!!! Potty training has been the easiest "hard" parenting achievement we have gone though!! All my readers (and future 13 year old piper) will be happy to know that i do not have a photo of this:)...
