Pumpkin Patch, Potty Training, and Peanut Butter

Well it started last Sunday evening, we went to change Rilynn's diaper and they were all gone... so we got out a pair of panties and the potty training began. We spent most of the week on lock down in the house, but I am proud to say she has done it! She is pretty offically potty trained!

During the potty training process there was much bribery used-one being gum. They all got gum when Ri went potty. Well Paxton didn't spit out his gum one night and woke up with gum all over his hair. Thank heavens for peanut butter! Paxton wanted me to wait until after pre-school to use the peanut butter to get it out so he could show all of his friends the gum in his hair...boys are so wierd! (I didn't let him)

Saturday we went with my family to the pumpkin patch. Thank heavens for fun Grandma Sharon! They got fun pumpkins and played in the bounce house. There was also a petting zoo there; I feel bad, being a mom I feel like I should like petting zoos because the kids do love them, but really I think they are stinky, dirty, and gross, but I did get cute pictures. And like I said the kids of course LOVED it.

Cooper



Well I am trying to start a blog, but I am computer illiterate so here is my attempt. Here is our Cooper boy, he is such a sweet pea. He is now 3 1/2 months and getting so big so fast. He is in the 90% for height and weight. While I am writing this, Paxton is squishing Cooper's face and Coop doesn't even mind. Well, I'll see if this worked! If anyone has suggestions for how to do this, let me know!
