Pictures of the kids

I don't have much to say except I've been sick for two weeks now, but I'll spare you the details! So here are pics of the kids.

Bubbles is now 4 1/2 months old. She is getting to be a big girl. She is happy and content.

She LOVES her toes.
Tornado loves to play with his soccer ball. He is a bit confused though because he keeps saying he is playing baseball.

I could have lived without that...

Tonight I heard Bubbles grunting so I looked over at her. I'm thinking "great, another poopy diaper" and then I see it. Bubbles in her bouncy seat sitting in a puddle (yes, puddle) of poop. In her brand new outfit. (I don't think it's ever going to be the same) I picked her up and it was dripping down her legs. YUCK! Tornado never did that and it wasn't something I really felt like I missed out on.

Bubbles is making sure that I don't miss out on anything baby related but I think I need to tell her "Thanks, but no thanks."

Huh.

Tornado just informed me that the dog is eating the playdough. I didn't even know we had a dog....

Ants are the bane of my existance...

They have invaded. AGAIN! I swear they are invading every time I turn around. I kill the ants off but they always come back. I already vaccum my dining room and kitchen 2-3 a week. What else am I supposed to do? I wish I could keep my floor crumb free but I have a three year old. Crumbs are a way of life!

I spoke too soon

Tornado did go stinkies on the potty today and earned his soccer ball, but later peed his pant. -Not even 30 seconds after I asked him if he needed to go. All you moms can imagine what his answer was.

On a different note... I finished The Host (by Stephanie Meyer) today. I loved it! I liked it more than the Twilight series.

The Potty Train....

That what Tornado thinks he's going to ride once he's done potty training! He's fascinated by trains so we are going to take him on one, but I don't think the people at the Heber Creeper would like being called the Potty Train.

It's going really well. We've been potty training for 3 days and haven't had any accidents for two days. We are still struggling with going stinkies in the potty (saves it for his naptime when we put him in a pull-up) but we don't have to remind him to go potty at all. He does it on his own. We've been able to go out to dinner and to stores with no accidents. He must be really good at holding it.

I'm crossing my fingers that this continues. I'm a bit worried about Sunday at nursery though. While we were out Tornado needed to go so I took him to the bathroom. He took one look at the toilet and refused to go, waiting until we were home. I'm not sure how to overcome that one!

Milestones all over the place

Here at Sugar for the Soul we are hitting milestones all over the place!

Tornado is on his 2nd day of potty training (and doing awesome!) and he learned to pedal his bike yesterday too.

Bubbles is rolling over all the time (started yesterday) and is keeping mom busy rolling her back over on to her back.

Mom is learning to sew and about to cut the material on her first project, jammie pants for DA. Cross your fingers for me!
