Hallelujah!


After a few months of trying and a week of wet underpants, my last baby, Zach, is finally potty trained! Let's all take a moment to realize that my sweet babies are all growing up. Okay, that's enough of that! Now let's think of the extra money, time and sensory calmness I will now be able to enjoy! HOORAY!!!!! I've been changing diapers continuously since January of 1998 and now I'm free!

The Boys

A brief glimpse into my days as babysitter to two three-old-boys:
Cute; Naughty; Cute; Naughty. Repeat all day long at 5 minute intervals.



Zach and Haydn were lying on the back porch telling jokes to each other and
laughing hysterically. I, not being a 3-yr-old boy, didn't get any of them.




Zach and Boogie (Haydn) decided the day was too beautiful for clothes.
It seems most days are too beautiful for clothes. Sigh.
The boys were watching the "worker guys" push wheelbarrows filled with wet cement from the front of the house to the backyard. GREAT FUN! Especially when they try to recreate the experience with mud.



With no coaching from me and having never seen "Wierd Science," the boys found new ways to have fun. This is before all the cushions were removed from the couches and plywood from said couches used as springboards into the pool of cushions.
It's a good thing that those two boys are SO STINKIN' CUTE!
