Details - Not to Forget
I feel like I complained all summer about the insane heat here. And I think I was pretty justified. We had the most days over 100 degrees in Dallas's history and the average daily temperature was over 90 degrees, also a record breaker.
But October is usually a pretty nice month here and we've been in the 80s most days. We can finally get back outside and play!
This kid has so much personality it's crazy. He's so much closer to little boy than baby now. The toddler stage seems to have flown by.
When Brian gets home from work Andrew says, "How was your day at work Daddy?" like he's an adult or something.
He's pretending to be sad here so that he can laugh at his sad picture on the back of my camera.

Also, we're working on potty training and it makes me want to pull my hair out. My biggest struggle? Getting him to sit still long enough to potty. I keep telling myself that we'll get there eventually. I'm 90% certain he will not leave for kindergarten wearing diapers.

I've been slowly introducing my little girl to potty training. She has successfully gone twice. Once was yesterday. She's not 2 yet so I'm not stressing yet.

We are potty training too...Ugh, I hate it so much and will be incredibly grateful when its over. I just keep reminding myself, "One day we will look back on this and laugh."

One thing I just had to embrace with potty training Noah was that he wasn't going to go if I made him. I just had to let him do his thing when HE was ready....and candy helped with that (little treats like single M&MS's and Tootsie Rolls).

Wonderful shots! And yay for you doing potty training! I'm terrified of the idea, and since my son is growing out of the largest diapers the store carries (yeah, he's a chunker), I'll have to soon :s
