Where do I begin?

My goodness! So much has happened the last couple of weeks...let's start with Evi. After cleaning up poo every morning for about a week I had had enough! She would poop and then take her diaper off and run around or take her diaper off and then poop and run around in the mornings when she first woke up. So I decided if she was able to do that on her own she should be able to figure out how to do it in the potty! The last 2 weeks has been filled with, "Are you dry?, Do you need to go potty? Oh, you need to go potty, Quick Quick Quick to the potty!" Oh, and let's not forget those wonderful Uh Oh's! Gotta love those ones! Well, two weeks later and I think she gets it. For the most part she wakes up in the mornings and after naps dry and runs into the potty to go. She still has an occasional Uh Oh! when she gets really distracted playing. But I am so proud of her, we have made it out of the house 3 times now with no accidents! Hooray! She is growing up so fast! She practically speaks in full sentences now and is so silly. She is definitely the big sister, BOSSY! Adler doesn't know how to play without her though. Adler is so so so close to crawling. He gets up on his hands and knees and rocks like a maniac. He scoots all over the place. I had to tell him "no" for the first time today. I have a feeling I'm really going to have my hands full here in another week or so! He has become a very picker eater. He doesn't like baby food, he just wants to eat what we are eating, the only problem is, he still doesn't have any teeth! I don't know where they are? It seems like he has been teething forever! He just shakes his head no as fast as he can and clenches his mouth shut whenever I try baby food. And finally, I was able to find a stay at home job doing data entry. I am so grateful to be able to work from home so I can stay with my kids, but still be able to make some extra money. I have had to adjust their nap time a little, but it works out pretty good. It takes me about 2 hours to do so they are just waking up from their naps when I finish. It was quite stressful while I was being trained. I had to take them to a friend's and grandma's house for about a week. Evi didn't like that so much but it was good for them to go. Now things are back to normal, if normal really exists, but I'm sure we'll have some new and exciting adventures soon, probably tomorrow!
