We’re Still Here

Hi all!  Yep, we are still alive and kickin’!   Time always seems to get away from us just with the routine of our daily lives.  Here are some updates: 

We had an awesome Valentine’s Day complete with heart shaped pizza!  Daddy grabbed the sparkling grape juice and we all drank out of wine glasses.  The kiddos were pretty impressed with that! 

Here are a few pics of the weekend before that when Lane and Kate stayed with us.  While the little ones napped, Norah and Lane frosted heart cookies!

 

Here’s our bed the next morning: There was no room left for Me!

 

We have a couple of goofy kids living here that keep us laughing everyday!

Got to love the outfits! 

 

We tried out a little potty training for Brennan last weekend…he is NOT ready.  Although he did do #2 on the potty, he looked completely traumatized and didn’t know what to think.  He wet his pants 5 times that day, so we have decided to just wait a couple more months and try it again.  At least now he knows what being wet feels like..too bad it didn’t seem to bother him much. 

One progression in Brennan’s life that we have made is that on Monday night we took the side off of his crib to give him a “big boy bed”.  In the recent weeks he starting climbing into the crib, and I knew it would be only a matter of time until he realized he could also climb out.  After his nap on Monday, he climbed out, opened his door and walked right out.  It startled me that he was just standing by me without a peep.  So, for safety sake, we made the crib into a bed until we decide how to decorate his room and buy a twin bed.  He is growing up so fast…isn't it crazy how fast time goes?

We spent about an hour outside playing on Monday, and I am sure glad now that it is SNOWING again…yuck.  The kids had so much fun discovering their outside toys again.
