It's coming!!

I potty trained Cade when he was two because Caylee had just arrived and changing that many diapers a day was just gross, haha. The potty we bought was this cute little green frog. Recently, since Cade is getting bigger he is going over the top with his pottytime. (To put it nicely) So today we went to WM and I saw a bi-gender Elmo seat that you just put on your pot. I hyped it up and asked Cade if he would like to start using the Big Boy potty. (He is terrified of ours) He was so excited so we bought it. It took a little fussing, discussing, and a few tears but he is getting the hang of it. I am really NOT looking forward to teaching Caylee. All the accidents and going 5 billion times a day does not sound fun. However, tonight after we ate supper I took Cade to potty and when he was finished Caylee started to get on. I was wanting to clean up the dishes and didn't let her sit on it. OMG you would have thought it was the end of the world. So I guess as much as I am dreading it potty training round two is in my near future. Oh well at least we will be done with diapers. ;)

Music to my Ears

For over a yr. now when I make anything besides a pb&j, poptart, or go get donuts all I have heard is "Oh, yuck, shoooey." Thank you Cade. Well recently he has decided to start eating some of the things he used to love. One of those is spag. and fettucini. :) Tonight the entire time we were eating all I heard was, "Momma I love sketti. You great sketti, very good." I may get tired of reading Dr. Suess a million times a day, cleaning up bodily fluids, or always having toys laying around the house, BUT I will never get tired of hearing how great my cooking is. Thank you Cade, Mommy loves you.

Don't Eat That

When babies give kisses they are always open mouth, tongue, and lots of slobber. Jeff and I were talking last night and couldn't stop laughing. Every time Caylee tries to kiss Cade or if she is mad and tries to bite him he always does the same thing. He puts his hand over his head, runs, and says, "Caylee don't eat that." It is hilarious, she runs after him with her mouth wide open and giggling. They are such funny little creatures. ;)

Cade turns 3 :)

Better Late Than Never

These are a few of my favorite pictures from Christmas. (Thank you Josh!!)

Highlights of the Day!

Hmm interesting title. One I don't know that these are "High" lights and two they all happened in one day, today.
1. Caylee has managed to tear into the same present three times today. Needless to say it is put away and no longer under the tree. (Sorry great grandma Deskin). 2. While I was cleaning Caylee managed to unroll half a roll of toilet paper. It was all over the bathroom, down the hall, and across the living room. 3. Caylee managed to get my Texans coaster off my nightstand and chew a hole in it. 4. Caylee managed to get some wipes down and cover Cade's bed with them. 5. Caylee tore more holly off my snowman nutcracker. 6. Caylee pulled numerous balls of cotton (snow) off the edge of my snow village and left them in various places around the house. This was before and after I had finished vac. the carpet. 7. As I write this post she has now ripped another ornament off the tree. 8. Caylee has caused at least 58 of my hairs to turn gray. Ok that one I might have imagined. :)
I am noticing a pattern here. :S I know some of you thought that I had forgot to post because I haven't written in so long. However, as you can see I have my hands full and just haven't had the time to sit down. Here is to hoping tomorrow is a smoother day. Lol. :)
