Our 1st Potty Seat

Nathan, like any man, gathered his reading material before getting on the throne.
"Uh, Mom... you're taking pictures of this? Seriously?"

Alexa... well... this picture tells you exactly how she felt about the new potty seat.
But after talking with Mommy, getting some hugs, & singing some songs, she decided it was ok!
Alright, alright... don't freak out. I'm not trying to potty train my kids yet. They're not ready. And I'm having a baby in 2 months. It is not the time. But they are starting to become aware of the whole potty thing so I thought it couldn't hurt to get them a seat & put them on every once in a while. No success yet but that's ok. We'll worry about that later! But don't they look so adorable sitting on their cushy little seat?

that makes me want to go out and buy a cushy seat for myself! LOL!

Cute, cute, cute. Good luck with the potty training thing. Once they get it down, it's fabulous to not have to put them in diapers anymore. :)

We just started the process today too. She likes it if I sit on the floor by her to chat. I am sure we still have a while to go! Good luck on that!

haha, so cute. We got Kylee one around that age too. She really liked it and then didn't like it and then liked again. Kids are so fickle, especially girls! :) Ours is an actual potty though and now she brings it with her wherever we go around the house. so yucky but whatever, if I don't have to change diapers then it's all good. I hate the potty training phase. we're not there yet but I want to fast forward a few months so I don't have to go through all this yuckyness. but oh well, it's fun. not sure when I'll have the faith to bring her out in public w/o a diaper though. pretty scary!

That's great! I was really impressed thinking they were already ready (Levi has yet to master his bowels), but at least you're giving them a positive experience at the beginning! They are sooo cute!

I have a magical throne potty that plays music, used one time, fully sterilized, if you want it.

I was going to be so impressed with your potty-training skills if your kids were really already there. But good job on getting them used to the idea. It's definitely the first step!

37 Weeks 2 Days

It's almost the end! I saw Dr. Adam last Thursday and I'm starting to spill protein and swell a little. But my BP is good! So we'll see what happens when I see her this Thursday. We may have to deliver early! I have mixed feelings about that because I really wanted to make it to 39 weeks, and my parents can't come until the 14th. But Sam is worried about my kidneys. So we'll see. Baby girl was 6.5 lbs last week. Even if she comes this week, she'll probably be about 7 lbs! Me on the other hand... I've gained 40 lbs! I have 5 lbs to go to be where I was with my other deliveries. Let's see if I get there! :)

Today we got together with another set of twins! Caden & Addison are just a month younger than Nathan & Alexa and were born at Texas Women's also! I met their mom (Laurie) through an email list I got on while on bed rest in the hospital. There was another mom who was supposed to join us who also has boy/girl twins their age-- but she couldn't make it. What a picture that would have been!

Introducing...

Nathan McKay Oldroyd Born August 4th at 6:37 a.m., weighs 5 lbs. 8.5 oz, & is 20 in. long Alexa Dawn Oldroyd Born August 4th at 6:38 a.m., weighs 4 lbs. 5.5 oz, & is 1 6.75 in. long We are so excited that they are finally here! The C-Section went very well & Alisha is recovering well, with the help of pain meds! Nathan needs quite a bit of help with breathing but is improving. We’re told that he may get his ventilator tube out today & they would help him breathe using a C-pap. He breathes ok on his own so he mostly now just needs some pressure to remind him to breathe. He is still in the highest level of the NICU but is doing well. He’ll be in there for at least a few days after we get to go home. Alexa is tiny but doing extremely well. Alisha was able to hold her while still in the OR before she needed some oxygen help. She only had to stay on the oxygen until 11 a.m. and is still in the lower level NICU. She should get to move to the normal nursery tomorrow m...
