One Last Overnight Trip

I go back to work this coming Wednesday, so I decided that the girls and I would take one last trip while I'm still off work. My mom was going to Pocatello to visit all my grandparents, so we tagged along. It was a quick trip, we headed up Tuesday afternoon and came back Wednesday afternoon. We had a great time visiting, but of course I didn't take any pictures of that. I did however get a few pictures of McKinley and playing in the snow.

Pocatello had 5 inches of fresh snow that morning, so we made a snowman, she ate a lot of snow and we sledded down my Grandma's yard. We had a lot of fun!

2 Months Old

I took Molly in for her 2 month check up earlier this week. I can't believe how fast the time is going by. She weighs in at 10 lbs 9 oz (48%) and is 23 inches long (84%). She smiles a ton now and will talk back to us when we talk to her. I love the cute little baby noises! She's still a really chill little girl and loves to cuddle with her mom.

I love this little half smile:

Hooray for January!

January has been a great month at our house. Mostly because McKinley is potty trained. After we brought Molly home in November I would go from changing her teeny-tiny diapers like 400 times a day to changing McKinley's much larger diapers a few times a day. Going from seeing a tiny little bum to a big 2 year old bum I decided it was time to potty train....I should NOT have to change a diaper on a bum that big!

So, hooray, it worked out! It basically was a week of making her go all the time and she only had a couple of accidents. The second week we still had to ask her sometimes, but miraculously she started telling us and running her self to the bathroom. I LOVE that she uses the toilet now, it's so nice! What a big girl!

The second week was nice because we stopped staying home since I felt like I could trust her in public. Here is my potty trained girl watching a Utah gymnastics meet. Way to go McKinley!

Well, Molly is eight weeks old now. She's already changing and learning so much, I just can't believe it! For about two weeks now, she 's been able to roll from her tummy to her back and she really likes doing it, so she doesn't stay on her tummy much anymore. I have it on video, but it's a format that doesn't upload to blogger, so sorry, you don't get to see it. : (

She also is starting to smile at us, though I have yet to get a picture of it. She loves to make cute little baby noises and McKinley pretends the two of them are carrying a conversation. She usually says in a high falsetto "I love you to Molly".
Last Sunday we blessed Molly and it was a beautiful day.
