Potty Training, Easter Wreath, and Third Trimester

The title of this post pretty much covers everything we've been up to lately.

We've been working on potty training, so underpants and all things bathroom related are hot topics in our house. O is earning a skittle each time he goes and putting marbles in a jar to work toward a special reward. He vacillates between getting a marble tower and a wooden train set.
He's been doing great and has many days with no accidents. We're still working on his remembering to go on his own though. Mostly Mom or Dad have to remind him or drag him to the bathroom, so we still have a ways to go.

The other day we made an Easter wreath for outside our door. It was so easy and O did most of it by himself! He did such a great job, too!


He's getting to be such a big boy! Just a couple days ago he pretty much made our cornbread muffins by himself. He poured everything and did the mixing and filled the muffin cups, it was awesome!
Where did my Little Man go?

The baby is doing great! Elliott is such an active baby, he kicks and stretches all the time! He makes my belly move and bump so much, I love it. I am 29 weeks now, so already one week into the 3rd Trimester. I can't believe it's going so fast, the weeks are just flying by!
Here I am at 28 weeks.


It's been a couple months since we've seen our lizard friends, but we found two outside our door today. O was having so much fun chasing them around and trying to touch one.
Here's a video:

Mike is pretty much just doing the same thing poor man. School, school, and more school. Last night he stayed up until 2am to finish writing a paper only to go to class and find out it had been postponed, so it was a rough day. I hate it when that happens!

We love you all!

A Digital Concert

At lunch the other day O was singing away, so I caught a couple songs on camera.

Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star

One Little Monkey Swinging in the Tree

One Little Monkey Jumping on the Bed

Twinkle, Twinkle Little Bat

For a little while he was doing a mash-up of  jumping on the bed and swinging in the tree and it was so cute! I was trying to catch it, but didn't quite get it.
Snapped that Monkey

Jumping on the Bed

Then he just got crazy!


I hope this brightens your week, it sure has ours!
