Baby Update & Potty Training?

I am now 21 weeks and still don't look it. You can see by the picture that the baby bump isn't very big. I went to the doctor yesterday. I have lost 5 pounds since the beginning of my pregnancy but haven't gained any of it back yet. My doctor jokingly calls it my "pregnancy weight loss program". He dosen't seem to be worried about it though. I feel bad because most people don't realize that I am pregnant yet, which means that I just look like I'm getting fat. But I guess that I should be glad that I am not as big as a house. Kimberly went poo-poo on the potty for the very first time today! She has been telling us for a while now when she is in the middle of going. She will look up at you and ususally (while grunting) say "have poo-poo!" But until now she never let me know soon enough to get her to the toilet before she was finished. We made it today and she was very excited. As soon as she was done we called Alan at work to tell him the news. Kimberly got on the phone and rattled off a few excited sentences that we couldn't understand, followed by a very audible "I POTTY!" She is only 16 months, but hey, if she wants to poop on the toilet, more power to her!

Yay!!!! you'll get her out of diapers just in time to start the process over with the next one! I want to lose five pounds and then some, but I don't think I like your technique. Maybe I should look into the South Beach diet instead huh?

Your daughter is as brilliant as you are! You were in big girl pants at 21 months! You also talked in little sentences too, looks like she has her mama's brains and we all know where you got yours!
