Firsts

We reached several milestones today! I'm so proud of my boys!

The Friendly Hero's Firsts:
1. He went to the potty all by himself. I was upstairs changing a diaper and dressing a boy when I come downstairs and the FH is on the potty. He had taken off his pants and underwear and pulled the stool up and used the potty--all by himself. He was patiently waiting for me to come and wipe a bottom.

2. He was at the playground and started crying. He decided that he wanted to be sad outside. He told me that he wanted to stand on the playground and be sad. I was sorry about this first--but at least he was communicating.

The Peaceful Hero's Firsts:
1. He rolled over! This morning we were getting his brother ready and I look over and he rolled over from back to front, and then continued on to his back--right into his dresser.

2. Rolling into a dresser. He was so mad and screamed up the wazoo. Consequently, since this was also his first time rolling over, the rest of the day he made no second attempts. He didn't even do his half roll over.

3. He broke his first tooth! He has one tooth on the bottom in the center. We have three other teeth that are close, so we don't know which tooth will be the second tooth!

We are so proud of the boys! I desperately tried to think of first things that I did or the Bug Hero did today, but I could only think of a LAST for the Bug Hero. The Bug Hero took his LAST class as a Master's Student. He is a week away from finishing Master's Work and starting PhD work. We're pretty proud of him too. I didn't do anything cool today. Except document all these other cool things.
