I believe its time to potty train Dane!

After nap today I tried to get him to sit on the potty but he screamed bloody murder, so I'm really hoping he's not going to be quite as hard headed as his brother was..
But its definitely time to start trying. Now to find the time.

Counting

Today Will was counting for Daddy.  He got to 18 then 19, 21,22,23 24,25,26,27,28,29,30,44,45,46,47,48,49,50! 
He was so proud!  ..and so am I :)

Gumball assignment

When I posted the tree picture I remembered this paper too. And also realized that he doesn't aaaaalways use green, just most of the time. I was impressed with this assignment too. I love seeing what he's doing in school.


Coloring

Will does not love to color.  Unless it has wheels or dirt is involved he's probably not much interested. So this picture might not look all that impressive but I think he did a great job on it.  We are working on choosing other colors than his beloved green but the fact that he colored the entire picture and did a great job of outlining the star at the top, I was impressed!

 There was one good thing about having strep throat and scarlet fever.  I got in some great snuggle time with my baby Kramer.  Kramer is sick.  He has intestinal cancer which has a terrible prognosis so I'm savoring every day as best I can with him and giving him as much TLC as possible.  He was diagnosed in December.  Currently I'm giving him something to help with nasuea and that's it.  I have a pain reliever to give him when he seems like he needs it, but I don't think he does yet.  Makes me so sad.




My view the other day at work.  :)  I had to bring them in while I got a few things done and they sat and colored like little angels.   (for about 5 minutes, then they were up and running laps)
This is the first time Will wrote his last name.   He ran out of room and had to go to a 2nd line, but I think he did a great job!

Legos

My mom recently found all my old Legos.  (conveniently...just after I was giving her a hard time for getting rid of all my old barbies.. jk mom)  Anyway, I was so excited to pass along one of my favorite toys as a kid to the boys.  I had kitchen cabinets and a stove and I would always build houses.  So we got them out the other day and I was all ready to start building houses when I realized the way I used to play Legos was very different than how the boys are going to play.  We immediately made roads and I convinced Will to let me build him a house (which he promptly turned into a garage) and then made Dane a house but they bulldozed it and hauled off the rubble in their dump trucks.  ......Love my boys!!!!!

Miss and Will


Missy can be so fiesty and bites often - I call her the snake.  She hisses when she's unhappy, yet she puts up with more than I can believe from Will.  It's so funny.  Every morning he takes her and holds her on his chest and she just sits there.  He snuggles her all the time and she just goes with it.
