Happy Valentine's Day!!!
Mike always sends us girls flowers on Valentine's Day. Hannah got a call over the intercom at school to come see her delivery! She thought that was pretty great!!
Mine and Abbey's were delivered to the house! Tanner got a Spiderman valentine and the movie "Surf's Up!" It was a pretty fun day!! Thanks to Grandma and Grandpa T for the pez dispensers. They lasted about 2 seconds!!!
POTTY TRAINING!!!
Yes, it's that time! Tanner is 3 and a half. We've tried Transformers, Cars, and Spiderman underwear. Finally the thing that clicked was putting a plain white sheet of paper up by the toilet. Everytime he went potty he got to put a Spiderman sticker on it!! He called it his license. Anyway, so far so good! He's been a little bit easier than my girls!! Thank goodness for that!POTTY TRAINING!!!
This is the last time I'll have to potty train! There isn't anything more exciting to check off than that!! Sad, but so exciting that he's getting so big.
HALF NAKED HELPER!!!!
We've had so much snow this year!! My kids have been loving it. This particular morning, it had snowed about 6 inches over night. I was out shoveling and out comes Abbey to help me. She was so funny!! She said, "me got my boots on all by myself!" I said, "That's great!! Where are your pants?"
She turned to me and said, "I'm ok mommy!"
She stayed out there and helped me shovel for about 10 minutes and then decided that shoveling without pants was a little bit chilly!!
One thing about my Abbey - she keeps me on my toes!!
