spring can not arrive soon enough

things are always a little crazy

brennan

This is where we're at in potty training. I'm sure we're not going about things the right way, but it's getting a little frustrating to say the least. One day he does great, the next day he is going 1 and 2 in the pull-up. It seems like we've tried the praise, treat, and prize route and now we're on the take away route. These are some his favorite things. He hasn't asked for them all day, so I don't think he really cares....
Brennan got a bicycle for his birthday. Adam finally had a few spare minutes and could put it together. the box said 15minutes and in Adam time that means at least an hour :)

It was a beautiful day here in Saturday, and of course the first day of spring on Sunday it was rainy yucky, so we gave the bike a whirl in the basement.

We had returned home Sunday morning from running errands, we were in the house and brennan was taking his time in the garage, Adam when outside to find Brennan sitting on his bike pretending to ride. He was looking forward to playing. When we finally got to the basement, it'll take some practice, but I'm sure he'll enjoy riding when he understands the concept.

He was already in bed for about an hour on Tuesday when I went to check on him, and this is what I found. It looks like he reacted to a bite of some sort. So at 9:00pm I was running to the store for benedryl, to find that you shouldn't give little kids benedryl, so then we ended up trying to contact the dr to find out what to give him. In the end the dr said to give him some. But he's back to normal.....

Quinn

It's hard to believe that just a week ago we were saying to ourselves.....hmmm why won't she crawl?!? and now we're saying 'oh crap!'

and would you check out that hair! I wish I could just roll out of bed and have that kind of volume and what not. when I roll out of bed there is just a smushed spot in the back, even when I had long hair I still had the flat spot, but not her. I'm jealous, and so is Adam. but when it comes to Adam and hair, I think he's always jealous....

and now she's really on the move

We returned from a vacation to find that nothing is safe.....(the kids stayed at home with Grandma while Adam and I went to Chicago. We did a lot of walking and visiting with my brother and his girlfriend who were visiting from CA and Adam's brother and wife who were visting from UT)

and she's off

and she's on the move- well sort of..... and ask me why we want her crawling?......lol

Swimming

It may not look like much, and he didn't go far, but we were very excited when he went underwater and swam without flotation. Way to go Brennan!
