The Kids Day 6

I have been home alone for 6 days now. It feels like 6 months so I am sure I will do great when Carl is gone OH MY GOD! HELP ME! I have only cried once so I will probably be okay when he is gone. Or not!

THere have been some highs and lows. Nate is doing great potty training. I think we are almost there. FINALLY! Caitlin has really started talking this week. I thought it would never happen. She is also sleeping better, it is amazing how love grows when mama sleeps through the night. Just kidding I love you lots Caitlin!

Here are a few pics one of my favorites is Nate in his diaper and my shoes telling me " mom I am going outside to play with my friends" Nate feeding Caitlin food that he will not touch!

Nate's School Pics

Nate had a Valentine's Day party at school today. I think he was a bit out of it because he missed his nap the last three days. We know how Nate likes to sleep. When I was going through the pics I said Nate" Who is sitting next to you?" His reply " That is my girlfriend" Carl was so proud.

Happy Monday

Nate checking out the new deck

Nathan takes better pictures of Caitlin than I do!

A birthday party for Mallory. Nate liked the clown but I think he liked the cake and icecream the best!

New deck- view from upstairs

Nate clutching his loot from the birthday party!

Almost finished the brick and the porch. It looks awesome!

Maybe and Herego

Nate now starts every sentence with Maybe. "Maybe you can get me a cookie, mommy" " Maybe you can play cars with me". Caitlin's word of the week is "Herego" yes that means here you go. She hands you everything and says "Herego". It is very cute
Lets see last week I asked Nate if he wanted to stop at Wendy's for some Chicken nuggets he quickly responded " No I just had a boogie". After that response I couldn't even think about eating. Laying in bed a week later he asked. " Mommy What is protein" I said well Nate you eat protein and it makes you grow big and strong . His reply " Well you don't eat boogies and you don't eat playdough so I guess you eat protein" Smart kid really starting to put it together now!

Okay well its been such a fun weekend Caitlin has it coming out of the diaper end and Nate is throwing up. It has been a blast! Lets just say we are counting the minutes until we get to Grandma Poe's house on Thursday and leave the kids with her for three days! GOOD LUCK GRANDMA!
