Harlee potty training!!-77 3/18/13

Harlee got all wet and came down and stripped everything off. She was standing there waiting for a new diaper and Brian told her to go potty. So she went to the toilet and I stood there and waited for her. I was certain nothing would happen because I've done this a lot. She then asked for "pivacy" so I closed the door and walked away. She ran out 5 minutes later saying she had pooped. I chased her back to the bathroom and sure enough!! She didn't have an accident the rest of the day but now she thinks she is supposed to get her picture taken every time she goes. Ha ha!

Green Day- 76 3/17/13

 I read an article today from a woman who is sick of people turning miniscule holidays into big ones. oooops, she would hate me. I don't know why but I feel this need to turn anything into something big and special. I love all the traditions our family has started. I'm not trying to impress anyone and I don't think less of a mother who doesn't do anything extra. It's just something I really enjoy and want to do. So, for those of you irritated by it, sorry but I'm not going to stop because you don't like doing this stuff. ANYWAY,  for breakfast I dyed a few things green which in reality was pointless because we played a game. Since this day is about luck I told them how lucky they were to have eyes and wanted them to eat breakfast without them. Ha ha (see, no real need to color the food)! Lame, I know but they thought it was fun and hilarious. I also had a scavenger hunt for them when they woke up. Those cups have "gold" in them!

 We all had a lucky shirt. I am so obsessed with this color. Naturally, this is a favorite day of mine.

 Then for dinner we talked about how lucky we are to have hands. Ha ha! This was so fun. Definitely a new tradition for us.

It was a really fun day and I look forward to next year! It really didn't take any planning or preparation and it was something fun and different to do.

Chapstick!!!!-75 3/16/13

She picked this our from the dollar section @ Target. She smears it all over her face all day. She cracks me up!

Edible paint-74 3/15/13

We've done this once before. It's a fun and easy time consuming activity for the kiddos. We dye sweetened condensed milk and paint popcorn, marshmallows, cereal, etc. 

I thought this was sweet. She wishes she was a baby too. She kinda still is.

Seed starter-73 3/14/13

Planting seeds of pumpkin, watermelon, corn, cantaloup, and squash. We are all excited to see our sprouts growing everyday! See, we are obsessed.

Park day-72 3/13/13

I love spring break and having my boys home. We can do whatever we want, whenever we want including hanging with our homey's.

Mayzee is 4 months!- 71 3/12/13

She had her 4 month well a week before. She weighed just under 13 lbs. I can't tell you her height because they didn't tell me. I do know it was in the 25th percentile. And I also can't tell you the head measurement but it was above the 75th percentile (shocker. My kids are melon heads). We tried out a new doctor and I'm not impressed. The idiot lady who gave her her shots did them SLOW and painful. She inserted the needle s l o w l y and injected the vaccine s l o w l y. I am used to it being fast and done in 5 seconds. I was so made at this lady. I will ask for someone different next time. Has anyone else experienced this? Maybe I was spoiled with my other doctor but it was torture having her go through that. I was one pissed off mama. Even though this child has been a handful lately and not sleeping well all of a sudden, I do still adore her and love her happy face (for those few moments a day when she is happy).
