Whether we are in short sleeves or four layers deep, we are outside!

"Max, Pee-Pee Potty!"

We had an especially exciting morning. After four months of sitting on the potty next to Kate every morning, Max did the deed! Kate screamed, "Max, Pee-Pee Potty!" He got to choose his own "big boy" underwear, which required trying on a couple pairs, and wave bye-bye to his pee-pee. He was so excited to wear and show-off his choo-choos.

Kate did not pee-pee on the potty today so she did not get to select underwear. When she saw Max's underwear, she promptly took off her pants and sat on the potty to try again....Peer Pressure!
Update 3/14/2011
Max went poopie on the potty!

Mimi, Pop-Pop No Go!

We are so very lucky to have Mimi and Pop Pop nearby. One or both come two-four times a month for the day and the kids look forward to every minute. This morning I asked the kids who they thought might come visit them today and they both screamed MIMI, POP-POP! Later in the morning Kate says, "Mommy, Mimi Pop-Pop driving car?"

We packed the morning hours with outside time - Box, Bikes, Dirt, Puddles, and Rocks!





Side Story: Pop-Pop was being silly at lunch and I asked Kate if Pop-Pop was being a goofball? Kate promptly repeated, "Pop-Pop Goofball!" with a giant grin. Sorry Pop-Pop :)
Thanks for visiting us!

Hands

Kate tends to demand Max's hand, "Max. Hands!" while Max just runs up to Kate and quietly says "hands" and grabs hold.



Either way makes me smile!

Trucks, Trucks, and More Trucks!

The kids and I enjoyed a wonderful morning with Sarah and Ian. We got to see their beautiful new home, play in their super fun playroom, and enjoy the most thoughtfully designed play structure! Max was in heaven with all the trucks!
Thank you for the fun day and the AMAZING pictures Sarah! I am pretty sure you are my favorite artist!


Let's do it again soon!

A Box

Mimi told us one day a lot of fun would come from an empty box!
