Today two things that have NEVER happened before, happened. Two things that I knew would happen eventually but I just didn't think would happen quite yet.
First of all Michael decided to go potty. He had a pull-up and pants on and he took his pants and pull-up off and went potty. I was amazed after weeks of fighting and crying, and then there was his reaction to my crying. He just did it. No prompting, no begging, no yelling he just did it... WOW!!
And then there's my baby baby. She's been a lil more fussy then usual the last couple days and I was thinking maybe shes not full enough. I buckled her into her bouncy seat and slapped a bib on her and gave her, her first taste of rice cereal. I know they usually say to wait until they are about 4 months old. But she's almost there, she's like 3.5 months (ish). She did GREAT, she took the whole tablespoon and a half that I made for her. She smiled and cooed and gurgled and kicked her feet. So I think she might have liked it.
Today has over all been a pretty good day. My babies are growing up (all of them). Ailyn is starting to eat food, Michael is going potty, Connor is writing his own name in kindergarten, and Gwen is reading books that are meant for kids 3-5 years older.
I know Ailyn is still new but 18 more years of firsts and new beginning's doesn't feel like its enough time. How can that possibly give me first teeth and steps and riding a bike?? I mean really does 28 years give enough time to experience all 4 of my kids amazing first everythings?? 'Cause really 28 years is how much time will have passed from when Gwen was born to when Ailyn is legally an adult...
I know there will be college graduations and weddings and grandkids and all their firsts. But its just not the same plus that's all SO FAR AWAY...
So in conclusion my world is turning upside down and my life will never be the same again...
