Tyler Bug

We've been potty training Tyler and things are going really well. In retrospect I think I would have waited a little longer to start but here we are. Tyler was a little nervous to go #2 in the potty. We told him that when he did, we'd throw a poo party and have cake (a big incentive for any member of the Robins' family). A little over a week ago he finally overcame his fear. He was with Tom because I was gone. The moment I walked in the door Tyler started making demands, "I went poop. I want a star cake with basketballs, footballs and bouncy balls." It was already late but we still had our little celebration. The looks of the cake left a little something to be desired but it sure tasted good. When Christie and Macy came to visit they brought us all sorts of fun things. Tyler and Ellie have had fun playing dress up with all the cool costumes. Thanks Watsons!
Anytime we tell Tyler to give us a big smile, this is what we get. I LOVE it!
In other news, I took Michael to the doctor today for a weight check and he's gained a pound and grown almost a full inch in the last two weeks. Now he's a whopping 10 1/2lbs. Hooray!
