Dallin is growing and achieving new milestones all the time. His most recent accomplishments are waving, clapping, dancing, playing peek-a-boo, and kicking upon our request - which means he's understanding what we're saying. It's very exciting. He's pulling himself up to standing position as well, and that means walking is not too far away. The photos above are of Dallin eating one of those buiscuts sticks that are really messy and of him hanging out at Chuck-E-Cheese's for a cousin's birthday party.

You can't beat bathtime fun!

Potty training round 2 went much more smoothly than last time. Reading to Emily that first day helped her get the hang of sitting on the potty for longer than two seconds. We've still got progress make, but over all she's done very well and stays dry more often than not. I've decided, however, that potty training is something I certainly don't enjoy doing.
