Big Girls

My baby is no longer the youngest in the family. We are happy to have a brand new niece, but now Olivia has to be a big girl to make room for the new babies. I don't think she'll mind too much. In fact, in the next few days she'll be starting rice cereal. Wow... time is flying!Here's a cute Olivia smile. Of course, we can only get one kid to smile at a time, so I have another "model pose" picture of Abby for you.
Abby has finally figured out the potty training thing. She is finally using her potty all the time when we are home, but nothing outside home yet. At least it's a good start! And yesterday I finally got both girls to take an extended nap at the same time so that I could get some yard work done. It was great!

We are still working on de-mite-ing our house. Hopefully sometime mid-week next week we can spring our furniture from lock down and get it steamed well to kill anything that's left hanging out (and hopefully make it all smell a lot less like dog). It is going to be a lot of work, but in the end we should have a cleaner, mite-free home.
