Great Day


Luke and Adam went to school for the first time today!! Hallelujah! They were so excited. Cameron was excited too! Having attended Miss Mikki's school for the last two years, Cameron is a pro at showing the boys around. She hung up their backpacks, gave them a kiss and was so proud. I do apologize that this is the only picture were both faces were showing. Those boys hate the camera and hide when possible.

We're still in the potty training process (has it ever taken anyone longer than me?). So they had to wear Pull-Ups, but we're hopeful that within a couple of weeks they'll be in big-boy-undies all day.

This afternoon my niece Jessica came over to play with the kids. She's 17 years old and taking a child development class and my kids get to participate for the next semester!! How fun! She took them outside to play with play dough. I got some cute pictures.

Please note that only one of kids is actually looking at the camera.

What a nice day to feel like my kids are getting a little more independent. For so long, this whole motherhood thing has been so overwhelming. Now if we could just conquer the potty thing - we would be home free!!

Cute pictures! I think motherhood definitely takes a leap forward after potty-training. We're still in the trenches at this house too. My 4 1/2 year old still struggles, and we're just barely getting started with my 2 1/2 year old. I know there's a long road ahead.

You are too funny.
Maybe I need to try the pullups.
I want a niece like Jessica.

Laurie... Lee and I found your blog last night via other blogs, and we have been cracking up! Your posts are hillarious. We are so not looking forward to potty-training, and you definitely deserve the title hero for your running endeavors:)

I have three (4, 3 and 1 years) and finally see a light in the tunnel (notice I didn't say at the end -- we're still miles and miles away from that!). Every day gets better (notice I didn't say easier, ha ha), but it's fun to know I'm not alone and am in good company! (found you thru Heather White's blog, I think)

I've heard that boys are SO much harder to potty train than girls.
My daughters were both done by the age of 2 1/2 but My baby boy is just turning one, so I have a feeling I'll be buying diapers for a long while yet!
You really are so funny. I love reading your blog..
