Get out the baby books!

We've had a landmark day in the Hamner household!

Yesterday there was a hole in the drop-in bottle we sent for Claire, so they had to use a (new) backup bottle they had--and Claire took it so good that she drank the whole bottle we sent. Go figure the first day we didn't send an extra one, she would want it! When I walked in to get her today, her teachers said "you're gonna love us!" She took TWO bottles and had had the best nap! I'm so relieved, because poor thing had just been crying over the bottle every day. I knew she wouldn't starve, but hated for her to cry and be so much trouble for the teachers. So since she was so content, I thought I would give my first solo trip to Target a try...

Harper started potty training this week, and while she has had a few accidents, she's done really good so far. We've needed to go to the store and get some training pants and big girl panties, so that was my Target mission. They were both so good that I was pumped by the time we left the store. It just got better, because when we got home, Harper did #2 in the potty!  I'll spare you any details, but I was so happy that she was able to wait and let me know--especially the second time when she was in the bath tub!

After Harper went to bed, I was letting Claire have some tummy time. She's been rocking on her tummy recently & acting like she wanted to roll over, but I know that can go on for a while....Anyway, I rolled her over a few times so she could feel what it was like. Then the next thing I know, there she goes on her own! I thought maybe a fluke, but when I flipped her back on her tummy, she did it again! Of course when I grabbed the camera she was too tired & I couldn't capture it. Maybe soon she'll be doing it more & I can get her on video!

It's just wild to think about how fast they are growing. Everyone said it would happen. I just feel so blessed and grateful every day!
