It's been awhile...

Sorry it has been a very long time since I posted. I have my excuses....Little guy and Baby girl!!! They sure do keep me busy. I have so much to report so hopefully I don't forget anything.

1. Little guy is showing interest in the toilet. He tells me when he has poop in his diaper. He sings the pee-pee song when he wants to see on the potty (pee-pee in the potty). We started a sticker chart. He has pee-peed twice in the potty and pooped once. Yeah!! Baby steps to being fully in underwear. Thank goodness....(diapers are expensive). One thing that we do that has helped tremendously in getting him interested is every time (or most of the time) we put his BM from his diaper into the toilet for him to flush and then we talk about how poop goes into the toilet. What an interesting topic, unh?? (parents will understand.. you days are full of spit up and poop).

2. Baby girl is starting to take long naps in her crib compared to in my arms. Yeah!! She is a co-sleeper but during the day I need time to get things done and need to spend time with her brother. She take about a 2 hour nap each day and 2 smaller naps. I'm so excited!! I am able to have some time to myself. Woot-woot for me.

3. Baby girl is eating some veggies and fruits. She like sweet potatoes, pears, bananas, and carrots so far. She if very picky compared to her brother when he was her age.

4. Father's day was a blast. However, we had a very bad storm. Little guy is scared of thunder and is very clingy during storms. This storm was BAD and came out of no where. It happened so fast. We were at my hubby's parent's house and the neighbors tree fell on half of their house. The neighbor was fine but the house not so much. Little guy did not get to scared. It happened so fast that I think he didn't have time to panic.

5. I start a part-time job in August. I will be a preschool teacher to 2 and 1/2 to 3 year olds. I'm excited. The kiddos get to go with me and will be down the hall. I only work 2 and 1/2 days. I worried for baby girl because she is so attached to mommy. Very attached! She scans the room and if I am not in it she panics. She dislikes strangers. We have time to ease her into it.

6. Next week we are off to Turkey Run State Park for the week. I can't wait. Little guy will be so excited. He loves being out side and all it has to offer(bugs, snakes, leaves, water,etc.). It will be so much fun. I will have tons of pictures to share with you, I'm sure.

I'm sure I forgot some things but right now I am out of words. I will post pictures soon! They are growing so fast. I can not believe how fast they are changing. Before I know it they will be off to college:(
