I’m here to report that I have reached that point in my life where the biggest highlight last week was that both of the kids went poopy in the potty.  I’m still trying to figure out if that being the highlight is a good or bad thing.  Anna is mostly potty trained, which she is excited about because now she knows she has done her part and go to preschool this fall!  Jack has apparently taken on the “anything she can do I can do better” mentality or else he feels left out when she goes to the bathroom. Either way I’m supporting him in his efforts and have cleaned up several spots on floors because as I learned one day at a coffee house potty training boys is quite different than potty training girls.

Anna has decided that she doesn’t need naps anymore.  An unwritten agreement is in place and she gets to stay downstairs but she has to relax for about 45 minutes before she can continue playing.  Lately when that time is done she wants to be “Artist Anna” and she pulls out her basket that holds glitter glue, scissors, crayons, glue and colored pom ball things and a stack of construction paper and works away.  Lately she’s also snuck the tape out too but that is now hidden.

Jack has decided that he doesn’t like being on the ground.  He quickly climbs the entertainment center to get the phone so say “Hi D” (fyi “D” is Damion aka DadDy).  Over the last couple of weeks he has been found on the washer, once after he dumped a container of OxyClean, the other after pouring out the liquid Downy.  For the record cleaning products don’t clean up that easily.  The other day he noticed I hadn’t put the lock across the door and could get into the garage.  I went looking for him and noticed the door was slightly opened and in my scan from their wagon to the door to the backyard I found him!  On Damion’s motorcycle!

Other than that things have been quiet around here.  My birthday came and went without any problems.  Damion is off racing with Team Police Brutality this weekend, for some reason creating a link isn't working so head on over to speedycop.com to learn more.  The kids are enjoying the summer weather.  This year they are putting sand all over our backyard, which is better than in each others hair, which is the other preferred sand relocation site.  

And of course I’ve updated our photo gallery with all the other stuff that’s happened since the last post here so please take some time to look and read up on everything.
