Griese Twins + One: July 2011

Long ago when I found out I was pregnant, I wanted to do something for my child to let them know what was happening in life. Then when we found out we were having twins, I was more motivated then ever...And what a better way then a blog with posts and pics...I am not always on time, and don't capture everything like I wanted, but what can I say...This is better then nothing :)

POTTY TRAINING - MARSHAS (MARSHMALLOWS)

This month, I decided to really give it a go and try potty training...I tried rewarding you girls with stickers, candy, hugs, kisses, and a million other things...then in my last resort, I asked Ava to go pick something out of the pantry and if she went potty I would give it to her. She grabbed a bag of marshmallows. So I sat her on the potty, she peed and asked for her marsha (at our house marshmallows are called marshas)...the rest is history, Ava, you were a piece of cake to potty train...I just need to remember to keep marshas handy, and we are in business...

Here are a couple pics of Ava

Then there is Alexa...Girl, you are so hard headed (you must get that from your mommy). You want the marshmallows, but REFUSE to sit on the potty...I hate watching you throw huge fits, it just breaks my heart when I give Ava a marshmallow and not you. Well, when you are ready, you will have your turn with potty and marshas.

You girls also had your 2 year old appointments...You girls couldn't be more perfect...Excellent weight, height, etc. I love when we have appointments with no shots!

A huge surprise this month was a trampoline. I was a little worried the girls may be too young for one, but boy was I wrong. They love it...They play Ring Around the Rosey...Jump, flop and fall. I have so much fun watching them. We do have a cover on order for it, just hasn't come in yet.

With this month being so hot, we have spent quite a bit of time inside and in the pool...Here's a few random fun pics of things we did this month.
