Success Times Two

I'm so happy to report two successes tonight! Kevin put together the highchair for Beau today, and he got to try it out at dinner. And not just for an ordinary dinner of cereal and milk, but a special green bean dinner!!! The time has arrived, and Beau is starting veggies. I didn't think he would have any problem because he's an awesome eater (i.e. almost 18 pounds!), and he proved me right. He raised his eyebrows after the first taste of green beans then gobbled them down as fast as I could shovel them in. He also ate his wheat cereal and bottle in the high chair. Lincoln thought it was super funny that Beau was sitting at the table with us. (I did have to pry Linc away from the high chair at first. He was sure it was for him and that Beau could have his booster seat!)

Beau had fun in his jumper while Lincoln worked puzzle after puzzle. He's definitely in puzzle-mode these days. Except when he grabs a golf club, his baseball tee, and a bouncy ball for some batting practice. Beau loves it and can't stop giggling while Linc wildly swings and squeals.

Lincoln's first two days of big boy underwear at school have been amazing - - no accidents!!! I packed 20 pairs of underwear and 7 pairs of shorts in his backpack, but he's stayed dry and clean in the same pair all day (both days)! I'm so proud! He got 5 stickers tonight for all of his potty success, and he kept trying to go again to get more stickers! The big reward will come when he can do more than teetee in the potty. He'll get to pick a cool Elmo or Mickey bandaid to wear when he can go number 2. Cross your fingers that we continue to love the potty!
