Update on and , also Magic Touch Computer Screen, and potty training

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone. I don't keep up very well with the listserve, but that should change next month when the boys are in school for a large part of the day.

We've had a busy summer. At the start of the summer we purchased a "Magic Touch" computer screen, so the boys can be independent on the computer. Their main website is Starfall. They can navigate through the site very well, and when they are on the computer together it's really funny. If opens something and doesn't want the same thing, will close that window! So, it's a great time for turn taking.

The boys are doing a lot of swimming this summer. They are probably in the water 5 times a week. They are both officially swimming this year. They both jump off the diving board and swim to the side and get out, without anyone helping or being in the pool with them. One of the Special Olympics swim coaches saw them swimming and asked if they would like to join in January. We plan on having them join, and get into the program early. They won't be able to compete until they are 8 years old, but the practices should be fun for them.

We are also working on potty training. They have pee-ed in the potty more this summer than ever, but we still have a long way to go. I was having too hard a time training both boys at the same time, so I am focusing more on one at this time. My boys seem to have very immature bladders. They pee 12 to 15 times during the day.

Has anyone else had this problem? Matty will have an accident, and since I'm watching his so closely, he isn't finished, so I take him to the potty and he pees more. But often 30 to 45 minutes later, he has another accident!

I'm going crazy, but it's fun.

Got to go!
