He is my Sunshine

This kid is great.  He is my one respite.  I started potty-training him (even though I was trying to resist it)the middle part of April.  He has done better than either one of the others.  He rarely has accidents now.  He is doing sooooooo good.  I am so proud and happy that he actually caught on!  Now we'll just work on him so that he does not regress.  So anyway, I just thought that I'd share my ONE success story with you!  Here are some pics for your viewing pleasure.

 

Birthday Boy

This last month my BABY turned one!  I can hardly believe it.  It seems like yesterday he came barreling out- ALL NATURAL and turned my life upside down.  We all just love him.  He is so smiley.  He is almost always in a good mood. 
He can speed crawl, and the man and I have discussed putting him on the diaper racing track, but since it is outlawed in 49 states, we figured it just might not be that safe.  But there is no doubt our money would be on this guy- he is fast. 
He can stand and walk very wobbly, but he prefers to crawl.  He can get into LOTS of mischief.  I have found that apparently the most interesting thing in my house is, by far, the toilet brush!  He certainly is a curious and inquisitive little guy who has to do and have everything the older brothers and sis has.  Happy Birthday to my baby boy! How I love this guy!

Daily Quips

The boy says to me today (as a jeep was passing us), "Mom, jeeps are fast!"
"Yes," I replied, "they can be."
"Ya- if they're racing jeeps"


And a little earlier today, the girl noticed a thread dangling from the smallish boy's sleeve.  Rather than ripping it off (obviously the adult thing to do), she touched it and then jealously said, "you've got a string to play with!"

And the smallish boy said something so funny, but I cannot post it since it involves loads of names, and wouldn't really be funny without them. 

Cute kiddos!
