Last night, Sam put himself to sleep for the first time since he was in the womb. (Even then I was technically rocking him to sleep.) I just laid by him in bed for a little while, then I said, "I'll be back in a bit. I need to get a few things done downstairs." I went downstairs and 10 minutes later when I went to check on him, he was asleep! Hallelujah!
Then, this morning Elena was going to go to the bathroom and she decided to help Sam go, too. She took off his diaper, sat him on his potty seat, and he went! I was still laying in bed and I jumped up when Elena said he went to see if it was for real (also to make sure he wasn't peeing on the floor).
As Elena puts it: "Sammy's big now."
I know I can't expect either of his new accomplishments to be set in stone, but I'm still thrilled at this minor progress.
