Potty Training 101

Daddy watched the kids this afternoon so I could have an afternoon to myself.  This is what I missed out on - Brock is starting to potty train himself but so far all we can get him to do is pee-pee in the shower - not the toilet.  So today Micah looked outside where Brock was playing in the backyard and all he saw was Brock's diaper sitting on the back porch.  When he looked around to the side of the house this is what he found - our little guy trying to relieve himself.  *Sigh* I guess you have to start somewhere! 

Boo-boo

On our way walking into the Y Friday Brock fell and scraped his knee.  When we got home that evening he said his "boo-boo hurt" so I offered him a bandaid.  I went to put it on his knee but that wasn't where he wanted it.  So I let him put it on himself ...

Bandaid mustache!

Silly boy!  That's not your boo-boo.

Islands of Adventure

We went to Islands of Adventure on Wednesday to celebrate Brock's 2nd Birthday as a family.

Contrary to Brock's face, he really was having fun!

He was okay meeting the characters as long as they didn't touch him

Sam I Am from Green Eggs and Ham

Watching the Cat in the Hat to make sure he didn't get too close

Getting braver

This was taken just before the water shot up and hit him in the face to which he then turn around and ran face first into another one that sprang up at the same time

Time to go home!  We had a great time celebrating our little guy.

Hi!

The Chef

Brock was really excited to help me cook dinner the other day for us and Granddad.  He helped me "scoop" the filling for our chicken pot pies.  He almost got all of it in the pan too - letting him pour the milk from the measuring cup to the bowl was not the smartest idea I've ever had though!

Bumbo Baby

Aunt Alisha was nice enough to loan us her bumbo chair and Sophie loves it!  She has turned into a little couch potato and likes to sit in her new chair and watch TV with her big brother (especially Wall - E :).

A Day with Daddy

 
I started back to work last week and until I'm done orienting I am working two days a week. So that means those two days are Daddy days!  This means PJ's all day and naps on the couch and I guess playing in the diaper box.  Whatever works!  I'm just thankful to have a husband who loves his kids so much that he loves to hang out with them all day.
