Just a few quick things...

Nicholas said "I get a book" the other day. It sounds like he's saying "aki a book" though - Aki is a friend of ours. That is his first full sentence that I know about. He's said two words together before but this is a sentence. Woo!

Benjamin is slowly being better at potty training. It's taking a while. He did great over Labor Day weekend, but then we went to Spokane for my aunt's memorial and that created a bit of a setback. Ella is still doing well except when it comes to going #2 in the potty. She still refuses and I'm not sure what to do. The pediatrician says not to push it, but I'm anxious to get rid of pull-ups (at least until Nicholas uses them - I plan to start him sooner on the potty training than B & E).

I've signed the twins up for gymnastics starting next month. I'm looking forward to that!

There was something else but I've already forgotten. I feel like a horrible mother for not writing things down sooner and especially for not filling out their baby books. I need to do that soon before I really forget everything.

Oh, another thing I thought of regarding Nicholas. When we were in Spokane, he feel down near my parent's house and got a nasty bump on the back of his head and was bleeding a bit. I wasn't with him at that time as I was still at my aunt's memorial and I'm glad because that blood would have freaked me out. Then the next day, he fell at the park. Then a few days later, fell again and got a black eye. It has since healed, but I'm pretty sure people thought we were beating him.
