Potty Training 101

Potty training is going well. Number 1 is a whole easier than number 2. M&M's is good reward for Addy as long as I give her a llellow one(yellow). She is starting to recognize her colors more and more everyday. We are starting to plan Hayleigh's B-day party. Back by popular demand is the popular jumpy party. Hayleigh has said she wanted one again since her last party. This year will be fun because we can invite all her preschool friends. So I will keep you posted on how that goes. I hope that all is well with everyone and we are doing great. Love ya all. Amy

The trying Times of Potty Training

Potty training Addyson is going great. Hayleigh pretty much trained herself. She woke up one morning went potty and has had very few accidents since. Addyson is not that easy, but I have had a couple of other moms tell me that I am lucky on how easy Addyson is too. We started doing this on Monday. Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday were not so good. Went through every pair of panties that we owned in those days. Thursday and Friday she stayed dry all day long. No accidents and used the potty all day. Yesterday we went to McCormicks Creek for the day, so she wore a pull-up all day. She went potty a couple of times, but the pull-up was wet. Today is another dry day. One accident she went # 1 and 2 in the potty I thought she was done but she wasnt done and finished #2 in her pants. I love my kids and I love being mom. This time is soooo fun. Hayleigh is having fun helping.
Addy's verbal skills are growing everyday. The things that she says absolutly amazes me. Hayleigh starts preschool on September 8. I am extremely emotional about this. She is soooo excited can't wait to learn all kinds of new stuff. I am going to so emotional when we take her. I love being a mom, but not liking them growing up. I really want my kids to stay babies forever. I know that they won't but wishing they would. I thank God everyday for both of my blessings that he has trusted me with. I love my kiddos.

A lot of Changes in the Cummins Family

It's once again been a while since I have blogged. There are a lot of changes going on in our household. We have started potty training Addyson. Today is day 2. Today was better.....I think. Hayleigh is getting ready to start preschool. She is sooooo excited. We have already purchased her backpack and the school gets the school supplies. It is crazy how fast your kids grow up. Addyson counts better in spanish than she does in english. Her pediatrician cracked up about this on her two year well baby check-up. The kids are getting along well until they have to share toys or anything. Addyson is a little Hayleigh. She copies everything that Hayleigh does. I hope this blog finds everyone doing well.
I want to thank everyone for all their prayers during the last couple of months. We have definetly felt them. Life is getting better and easier. I can see the kids improving everyday. Especially Erin. She still has her moments, but on all she is moving past her mom and thats good. I still pray for my sister everyday for God to work is will in her life. My faith tells me that He will prevail and I stand strong on that. Love ya all, Amy
