The Bumps

Bryce and Calvin have been enjoying the good weather lately. Bryce comes home from school at night and takes Calvin to "The Bumps." It is a bmx bike park by the football stadium. The best part is it is free and fun!

Bryce takes Simon on some of the bumps. Simon loves it!

One Track Mind

Everyone knows that Milo has a one track mind. This picture proves it! Now we have even more proof! The other day Milo came in from the backyard covered in mud! Bryce went outside to discover he had been digging by the gate on the side of our house. This is the side of the house we dont walk by too often. So Bryce made poop soup to keep Milo from digging. It worked but didnt seem to ease Milo's mind. That night he woke Bryce up twice to go to the bathroom...but instead of going to the bathroom he would run straight to the gate and look at Bryce. Bryce was not happy this is what Milo woke him up for. The next day Milo tried to dig again. This time he bent the rain gutter because he didnt want to dig in the previous spot. We were getting frustrated! So Bryce trotted Milo into the front yard to find out what was so important. It took Milo a minute to realize that he was on the other side of the gate... then he spotted it. He leaped over and grabbed his Kong (ball)! He pranced around like he won the lottery! So thats what was so important to wake bryce up in the middle of the night TWICE! Now we can rest in peace other than Milo now wants his ball thrown to him:)

"Visor Vimage"

Before Bryce left for school, Calvin came up with this invention: a "visor vimage" (from what I can understand)." You can go under water with it." At first Calvin tried to put it on himself. He had the tape stuck to his hair. He screamed when he took it off... ouch! So Bryce volunteered to wear it. Thanks Calvin for this great invention:)

Potty Training

The adventure of potty training began the week we came back from Utah. I used the three day method. Calvin did awesome! After a few accidents the first day, he didnt have an accident for over a week. We were smooth sailing. He would come to me and tell me when he had to go to the bathroom each time. It was awesome. After a while, I think we stopped praising him, and he started to have some accidents. So we started a chart up and he loved it. He hasnt had an accident since and it has been over a week. We finished this chart and are starting on the new chart.

He got a star every time he stayed dry through the night or he went #2 in the toilet:)

We went to the dollar store and he had the option of picking any toy that he wanted!

He picked this Nascar race car! Uncle Warren should be proud!

We are still alive... I think

There are many reasons why I have not updated my blog... One of the them is that we have been sick. We have been hanging out at home all week long with runny noses and yucky eyes! Today I told Calvin that if he went bathroom in the toilet (I will spare you the details) I would make homemade play dough! And he did it!!:)
