Day 1---August 17
Raina and Liam arrived at 8:40...with Raina quite the helper. She helped get Liam situated in his chair, placed the roses they had brought, and then went to the bathroom all by herself.
9:30 Liam sat in his new high chair for rice cereal mixed with pears. He drank about 6 oz also. One b.m. diaper changed. Raina watched one Dora while he ate and then we all three watched about 10 minutes of Sesame Street.
10:30 Liam went down for his nap and Raina and I baked bread. We are doing brownies when Grandpa brings home the eggs :( Raina drank one apple juice packet.
11:15 Raina went to the bathroom alone...unasked.
Shortly thereafter Liam woke up from his nap, all happy and grinning
12:00 Raina was hungry for watermelon (lots) and had half a portion of mac and cheese and a whole apple. She also drank a whole kiddy cup of skimmed milk (Grandpa is bringing a little home when he comes, so don't worry.)
Liam had about 7 oz. and a bite of peas (he spit them out twice) and almost all the rest of the pears. He really loves his pears and got his hands in them too. He had another mb during lunch so we interrupted to change.
12:30Raina watched one segment of Thomas and then went to the bathroom alone. She just said, "Grandma, I'm going to the potty," and went alone. (I'm so encouraged!)
1:00 We're all playing in the computer room...Liam getting in some tummy time.
Liam slept about 3 hours ( 1:45-4:45)
Raina slept from about 3 to 4:30. She pooped in the potty!!!! Wet the bed, but I think we do need to diaper for the nap if she's been drinking a lot (and the watermelon IS a lot)
Watched Little Einstein till Mommy came home. Liam sat on the porch and watched the world!!
