Cooper is 7 weeks old, ahhhh.

We had a wonderful lazy Saturday. We enjoyed the swimming pool this morning and this afternoon. Had another wonderful breakfast and a big family dinner. Other highlights of the day include...Kylie going pee on the potty twice! and zero tears while we washed her hair in the bath!!! We have not really been potty training, but she has started to show more interest and often wakes up from her nap dry. Today she actually asked to go to the potty, so exciting! She has also been screaming when we wash her hair, but today she was fine. Her aunties spent a lot of time in the pool playing "beauty shop" with each other. Washing everyone's hair (except Kylie) and talking about how fun it was to get their hair washed. Kylie wore her new goggles the whole time she was in the pool but refused to get any part of her face wet. So when it came to bath time I was unsure how things would go. She didn't want to wear her goggles and she was willing to watch Auntie Doe's presentation of all the products in their bathroom as I rinsed out her hair. When we were done she said "I not cry" with a big smile on her face.

We rushed down stairs to tell everyone what a good job Kylie did in the bath, she was so proud of herself. She then entertained us all by dancing around naked until she stopped and said "I go pee pee." I grabbed a cloth diaper and put it between her legs but then noticed she was not actually going. "Let's go to the big girl potty." "Ok" she said and we ran to the potty. She went pee, climbed down, wiped herself and tossed the tissue in the potty telling me "this is the tissues swimming pool." She flushed the toilet, walked back in to the living room and laid down ready for me to put her diaper on.

Who is this kid? When did she grow up? Not to mention Cooper is 7 weeks old, when did that happen? He is such a sweet baby, he has been eating and sleeping a lot, well except for being awake from 3:30-5am this morning. After eating and spending some time naked during his diaper change, he was still not interested in going back to sleep, he was so sweet, just cooing and smiling. He finally fell asleep right before Kylie started to stir. I jumped down to her bed and nursed her before she woke herself up then climbed back in bed with Coop. Kylie didn't wake again until 8:20 and Cooper only nursed one more time. It was awesome. I am hoping for a good night again, Kylie wore herself out today and ate a big dinner, so I think she should sleep well.

More to come soon,

This is how she often sleeps on her bed at home, sometimes her feet are hanging off, but she always seems to turn herself around, even when she is sleeping between Craig and I, silly girl. 

 Pool time today, yay for goggles even if she didn't use them.

 They also make a good headband.
