What we've been doing today...


Am I convinced he's ready?  No.  But a couple of days ago while building a puzzle w/the older boys, Noah came to me and asked me to take his diaper off.  I agreed, as I had not changed his night-time diaper yet {no judging!}.  I figured I would give him a few minutes {no harm in that right?} and then put a new diaper on.  Next thing I know he is "playing" with the toilet lid/seat {I'm regretting writing this already}.  I ask him if he needs to go potty and he says YES.  Been there, done that, but then he does something remarkable!  I head to the kitchen to grab a "potty treat" {1 M&M} come back, and........HE PEED!  The proof still dripping {TMI?}.  Sooo, you tell me...is he trying to tell me he's ready?

P.S. He has only had two "accidents" today.....but as I type, there is something BIG brewing.  Of that I AM convinced!

To be continued..........

A really good {birth}day.

Skiing at Kelly Canyon, Soaking our aching muscles at Heise Hot Pools, and eating pizza by the fireplace at Heise Pizza Parlor while the kiddos run wild playing shoot the duck and pacman {the very same games in the very same arcade that I used to play in when I was their age}.  A very perfect birthday.








The skis that Noah {Ryder and Ridge learned on them too} is skiing on are the same skis that Chase learned to ski on....how awesome is that?
