Some fun new things are going on here! First up, potty training. Still working on it. In fact, she just completed her second potty chart yesterday. Prize #2? A trip to the party store for a balloon of her choice. Once there, it was an easy decision. She went with one of her favorite characters, Pablo, from one of her favorite TV shows, The Backyardigans. She dragged the life-sized Pablo balloon out of the store like it was a dog on a leash! She kept saying, "Come on, Pablo. Let's go!" Now, wouldn't you know as soon we got home with this prize she had 2 potty accidents. We're definitely still in training mode with it all, but I know she's doing her best and is going to be completely diaper free sooner than later!
Look at all those stickers she earned!
She's one proud big girl!
Grandma and Grandpa Johnston gave Bridget some gardening tools in her Easter basket and we just recently got around to planting some seeds. We planted sunflowers and she is already thrilled with the little green sprouts!
Ross got some new things this week too. We pulled Bridget's walker from the attic the other night, wondering if he would like it. Hmmm, what do you think?
Yeah, he loves it! And how could you not love that huge, happy smile? Guess who else loves the walker? Bridget. We've caught her stuck in it several times!
Ross is almost 4 months and with that comes the introduction of solid foods. He'd nurse every 2 hours if I'd let him, so I figured a little rice cereal at dinner time might help fill him up a bit more. Not to mention, that Bridget finally started sleeping through the night soon after we introduced solids to her. Keeping my fingers crossed that Ross will do the same! He wasn't quite sure what to think of it, but he ended up eating most of it. By the second night, he was already gobbling down the whole bowl. What a piggy!
First bite
Classic first food face!
And remember our backyard deer from a few weeks ago. Well, here are its babies! They are so cute and we've been seeing them nearly every afternoon!

I love reading your blog! The pictures are great and the new things are fantastic! Can't believe how big they are both getting! You are doing such a fantastic job, Jessica!
Keep up the good work Bridget; you're doing a great job!! And that Pablo balloon was life size, you weren't kidding! Ross is already eating solids; so many milestones in your house this summer. :) And your baby deer are adorable.
Great pics Jess! I especially like the one of Bridget with her hands in her pockets...classic
