milestones

another week. another blog. good news for mike, his bone has healed. now he just has to get through therapy to get his ankle working again. grace hit a big milestone this last week.... SHE WENT POOPY ON THE POTTY! YAY! i know it's a long road ahead, but it's one less diaper to be changed. We were so proud of her that she got a poopy on the potty party! and i pulled a mom move and called about a million people to tell them that my daughter went potty. and for a breif second inbetween calls i thought, what has my life become? and then there was an answer on the other line and i shout She went potty on the big girl potty! yep, that's what my life has become... the life of a mommy, and i wouldn't have it any other way. Elliott also made some big steps this week... he's crawling, and pulling himself to standing. a very exciting week! okay and now for the pictures...

i had to put this one up, because this has been grace's obsession this summer, Bees. she loves bees. how does a bee go grace? "beeeeee" and they go up high. she is going to be a bee for halloween, and this pool floaty is her favorite of all bees. so much that i bought like 5 of them.
elliott is too little for the big kid pool so here he is soaking up the sun in his pool. he kept crawling out of it so grace gave him a ball to play with. too bad it's twice his size.


do you see mike in the background... stubborn man, has his walking cast on and is out chopping down bushes. 
and i love this pictures. it is elliott in one shot. clapping and sticking out his tongue. he is always sticking out his tongue. the drool from his teething, and you can kind of see his bottom teeth. he's up to four now! big stuff. thinks he can eat all big people food. too bad so sad.
