So everyone pretty much thinks we are crazy except for a select few, but we have been working on teaching you to go to the bathroom on a toilet for a few months now. You really seem to get it now, and have started to communicate on your own that you need to go. You have not picked up on signing it yet, but do a very specific whine when you need to go. I love this especially since starting solid foods, because rinsing that poop off of cloth diapers is no easy task! You have mastered pooping on the toilet, and have not pooped in a diaper in days! You also get this really cute accomplished smile on your face after you have gone on the toilet, as if to say "aren't you proud, mom?" and yes, I am! Now I just have to figure out when/how we decide to totally do away with diapers, if we try a training pants situation, or what. I don't think they make underwear this small...
Huge shout out to Melissa for sharing her knowledge, and simply encouraging me through this process. Also, Tim has done a great job of being consistent with this when he is home. Both of our mom's also have helped out while they have watched you. It is so great to have the support of the people who take care of you, it keeps things consistent and helps you to know what to expect.
So, at 6 1/2 months old, you are not totally out of diapers but are getting pretty close, and I am pretty proud of you!
