"I'm So Glad When Daddy Comes Home..."

We have been having so much fun lately! We have been getting creative because it is still chilly outside. We are all itching for spring. We so enjoyed a day of cleaning cars, picnics and riding bikes outside one day last week when it topped out at about 68 degrees! I want more of those days!

Tyce's best friend is his daddy and since daddy has been home a lot lately...Tyce has really been taking advantage of this time with him. They have built a fort and had a picnic in it. They have made snowflakes. They have snuggled and read the paper together. We all went to the rodeo. This was a first for the boys. Tyce chased chickens!!! We went to Chuck E Cheese for a birthday party. Tyce was invited by his "girlfriend" so he says! We have gone to Cabela's and spent 3 hours in awe of its amazingness! All in all...we have been spending some great family time together!

Another couple amazing things is our new found diaper independence! Tyce has been doing really well with the potty thing! He is doing the pee thing really well and all those activites listed above...not one accident! BUT...we have some off days every now and then. Some accidents and the pooping is taking a lot more work. Yesterday, Tyce had a poop accident and decided to CLEAN IT UP HIMSELF! Oh...what a mess it was. It was everywhere. Oh the joys!

But today...I had a happy mommy moment when I stood in the primary room with my happy little sunbeam to give his first "talk" in primary! He talked about daddy's and what they mean to the family and what they do for the family! It was wonderful and he was so good and reverent! And today at nap time...he refused to wear a diaper...so, we risked it (with a garbage bag under the sheets) and he woke up DRY!!! So...progress is being made!

Kaze is doing really well! He is growing so big and is just a sweet joy! I love my boys! Enjoy the pictures...this is our last couple weeks. What fun!
