PT Update: I Think We Are Done!

This might be my last post about potty training! We have had no major accidents for a few days now. KJ and Juli are still in pull-ups overnight, just as a precaution really. It's been a long process, but I think we've finally done it!

We did it just in the nick of time, too, the kids start pre-school next week! Can you believe it? We took them to meet their teacher on Tuesday. Even though we explained over and over that we were just going for a couple of minutes to meet their teacher and get a quick tour, they were all pretty upset when we left. They were very excited to be there and wanted to stay.

Yesterday they all got post-cards from their teacher welcoming them to the class. They were very excited to get them. They're pretty excited to get any kind of mail.




I also let them play with the iPad yesterday. Well, I was going to let Juli play with the iPad since her iPod needed charged, but it turned into all three playing with the iPad.



And since I had the camera out, I decided to take some pics of them playing with their Legos. I can't wait until we get regular Legos and can start building more complex things.

Triplets and iPods

Here's a video of the triplets playing games on my old iPhone 3G, Gretchen's iPhone 3Gs, and my iPhone 4. They have a pretty good selection of kids games that are fun and educational. Of course, there are some silly games, too. Some of their favorites are Toy Story 3 Memory Match, Wheels On The Bus, iPlay Phone, Balloonimals, and Peekaboo Barn.

KJ has really done the best so far with playing the games on his own. He'll sit on the couch for a pretty good amount of time and play without any help. He even knows how to switch from one app to another. The girls still need a little help from time to time, but they're getting better.

It occurred to me while watching the kids play, that, when it comes to using a computer, they may not even want to use a normal desktop computer. They may all want iPads, iPod Touches, or iPhones, or whatever the newest thing out is at the time. Even now, they show little interest in out desktop computer, but when we bring out the iPhones or iPad, they're really interested. I guess it's all about what you learn on, right?
