So much going on!!

I feel like so much has been happening the last few weeks, thought I should update the ol' blog. 

We started potty training Joey at the end of March, and he has blown me away with how fast he picked it up.  We started the first week of sitting on the potty every 15 minutes.....it sucked for all of us.  So at the start of week 2 we moved him to every 30 mins on the potty.  We got 2 days into the second week when Joey went 2 whole days without an accident.  He had an accident on the 3rd day, and then accident free for 3 days.  He's only had one night with a wet diaper too.  This kid amazes me every day!!!

We've been having nicer weather lately (FINALLY!!) too so I've been able to spend some quality time with Katelyn at the park while Joey was at therapy.  I found a toddler park that is perfect for her.  She loves playing and checking out all the other kids we see there.  It's a very small park and there is typically at most 3 other kids there with us.  She loves going!

This past week the kids got their belated birthday present, a jungle gym.  They absolutely love it!!  We can't get them off it and they can't wait to go outside to play on it.  Katelyn loves to grab her shoes and coat out of their drawer, bring them to me, and then she will point to the door, "uhh". 

On Saturday we went down to the neighbors to color Easter eggs with Harrison and Copeland.  The kids had a great time and when they were finished all their hands were dyed various shades.

Today, we had my in laws over for brunch and the kids had a little egg hunt in the back yard.

Is it Spring yet?

We actually had a really nice day this week, Joey has been fighting a double ear infection and GI bug, so with the sun out I felt a little fresh air might do us all some good.

We saw the sun!!!

Ed went to Amsterdam this week for a long weekend with some friends of ours.  While he was getting rained on the kids and I got a good dose of vitamin D!!  We went for walks around the neighborhood and went and spent a couple hours at the park.

Joey loved running around, swinging and going down the slides. Katelyn wasn't a fan at first and only wanted to be held.  After she warmed up she would cry if I picked her up.  It was so nice to get outdoors from some much needed fresh air!

Oasis Fun Center

Ed took the day off to get ready for his Amsterdam trip and we wanted to take the kids out for a little funsies before he left.  We had a few hours in between Joey's appointments today so we took the kiddos to the fun center.  Joey loves this place.  Everything is padded.  He can climb, slide, and run around.  You can hear Joey's giggles echo in the tube slides as he comes down.  It was a miracle to even get Katelyn on the padded stairs.  She is not a fan of the slides or anything else.  She likes to play it safe and is just starting to get a little more adventurous.
