Here are some pictures that we've taken since we moved in. They are of Mommy and Me, Joey's first day of school, The light show at the ecology site and Santa visiting the house on the firetruck.

Jenny's first haircut

I went to get Nicky's hair cut and I asked to get bangs cut into Jenny's hair...I ended up taking about an 1 1/2 inches off of her hair.. She was such a good girl!

Nicky wasn't too happy but he looks handsome.

Voila!!! The finished product..such a pretty girl!

We have Poop!

OK - gross entry but we must record the milestones!

The day before yesterday (on his birthday), Nicky did Poopy on the Potty! It was a 2 hour ordeal but I refused to put a diaper on him - so it was either the toilet or his underwear and - thank goodness - he chose the former!

Being the enterprising young woman that I am - I told Jenny that Nicky can get birthday presents and birthday cake b/c he is a big boy. If she didn't do poop on the potty then she wasn't going to be able to get a birthday cake. (Ok - I know, I know, cruel..blah blah blah...and if it didn't work it would have been a huge blow to my credibility when she got her gifts on Sunday but..)

It took her less then 24 hours and she did poop on the potty too!!! She was so proud of herself!

I have never done the "Poopy in the Pott-ay" song so much in my life!

And if you were wondering, yes - I took a picture with my camera phone and sent it to Joe at work! LOL

Have a good one!

That bugger has been holding out on us....

So as most of you may know, I have been potty training Jenny but Nicky has had absolutely no interest whatsoever in it. I ask him if he wants to go on the potty and he simply tells me "Nope!".

Last week I pretty much didn't give him a chance and said "Kick - you are putting underwear on now - let's go!" He resisted at first - ended up running around naked a little bit and then within an hour - was peeing on the potty!

After that - a complete champ - he has maybe one accident a day and it is usually when he is completely pre-occupied with something and just forgets.

AND...He has been waking up in the morning completely dry! Jenny doesn't even do that yet..So I think he has been potty trained for months - he was just holding out on us!

He hasn't pooped yet...but he is a toilet reader! LOL:

Here are some pics of the twins playing in the snow yesterday......

This is the three of them in their living room fort....

Congratulations!

To Ally and Dave on her new beautiful baby girl AVA!!! I can't wait to see pics!
