I have so many little matters to tell you of, that I cannot wait any longer before I begin to put them down.

Well, we’ve certainly succeeded in making Tommy sensitive to having a wet diaper. He got up at least 5 times after we put him to bed because he told us he was wet and needed to go pee-pee in the potty. Barely wet, and just about a tablespoon’s worth in the potty. Oh well…. One […]

This morning is going pretty well! Tommy had two accidents with Daddy while I took my mom down to Union Station and did a few errands, but he caught himself the second time and ran to the potty. He wanted to go out for a run with Derek when I got back, so I made […]
Tommy is in bed, after 14 accidents and about 30 successful potty trips. He actually napped for two and a half hours and woke up with a dry diaper! He favors using the potty in the kitchen or back porch. He’s learned how to pull up and down his big boy underwear. He is still […]
Well, today is P-Day at the Muller home. I’m trying to take advantage of my mom’s visit to potty train Tommy! He’s been using the potty 6-8 times a day, waking up from naps or overnight with a dry diaper (and telling us he needs to go), or telling me immediately after he wets his […]

For my dad, who wants photographic evidence of his grandson’s misbehavior. (I think Tommy was trying to clean up with the baking soda and swiffer after sticking his fingers into the melon…?)
Jay and Kristen also visited this weekend, so we finally got to meet each other’s kids! Sam is pretty much a heartbreaker. Don’t know how we managed not to get any pictures of adults, but here are the kids before bed. Too bad no one was looking at the camera…
So our last road trip until Thanksgiving took us to Royal Oak for a wedding this weekend. We’d seen Grandpa and Grandma when they came here a few weeks ago, but this was the first time with Nona and Uncle Matthew since the 4th of July!

Bottle update, because I know everyone’s dying to know how Lizzie’s doing with that…last night Laura came over to hold down the fort for an hour and a half after the kids were in bed. I told her she’d probably be able to study in peace and quiet…but after Tommy sent over a small avalanche […]
My neighbor Katie and I have been working on getting a kid swap going so that we can each work out and do basic errands sans kiddos without paying the going rate of $12 an hour all the time! Today we switched off watching all the kids twice so that we could both go to the gym and […]
So while I was feeding Elizabeth this morning, the phone rang and I didn’t answer it because I was upstairs and it was downstairs. Five minutes later, I went down to check the message, and an exasperated woman left a message about how she was trying to reach me because I was a reference for […]
