First, potty training...not really in the works. Occasionally we can get him to go on the sea turtle potty before he goes in his diaper, but we are not going to be pushing the issue. We really feel the best way is letting him lead us as to where he is at with it. No need in having him regress after Matthew arrives anyway. At least he gets the idea of what to do on the potty.
Second, sleeping is going okay. We decided that because he has been sleeping in our bed for a year now it isn't a habit that can be broken overnight or even in a week despite what people will say. So, we are working on naps. He takes his naps in his bed (as long as I'm not running errands that keeps us out at nap time). He actually does really well and will just wake up and walk out into the living room looking for one of us. From others experience with this method their little one eventually just asked to sleep in his own bed at night after experiencing many joyful naps in his own bed. So, hopefully we can get people to stop pushing us to get him out of our bed overnight. It isn't as if Matthew will be in our bed too.
Now, some pictures of Joshua lately.
Watching cartoons
Double fisted
Walking out on the farm
Rolling down a dirt hill in the back...yes, he did this voluntarily
