"Hi" and "B-Bye" at the Front Door

With all the visitors we've had recently, Natalie has really started to enjoy our front door - it's the place where she gets to say "Hi" and "B-Bye" to everyone - two of her favorite words.

First use of the Potty

Today Natalie successfully used the potty for the first time. It started as a bit of an experiment, and we really weren't sure what she would do (if anything). We just brought out the potty and sat Natalie on it. Within 5-10 minutes she successfully used it (in the fullest and most complete way). Actually, we didn't expect her to do anything, so this was something of a pleasant surprise. Now we just need to get some repeat performances.
