Swings and Things

Spenc-man had a birthday not to long ago.... So I made the kids an indoor swing to celebrate it. They really love it! The only problem, they fight over who is on it, even though its big enough for both of them! Little stinkers.

In other news, Ashley is getting huge, and really wants to start eating real foods (even her dark leafy greens : ) just kidding, but the kid would not leave my radishes alone... And she really loves to suck on avocados.

Favorite Quote this month (coming from spencer) "ice cream is nice and comfortable to eat". You bet little man! I think so too.

Lyla is being wooed by a new little guy in our ward at church. He brings her flowers, and holds her hand. She is in HEAVEN! Needless to say marriage is all she talks about these days. If its this bad now, I don't even want to think about the teenage years!

Ashley has learned to giggle! It's so infectious it's ridiculous! When I am changing her diaper, I lean over her and say boo! And tickle her chubby neck, and she just laughs. So cute.

Spencer is potty training, with excellency might I add. This kid is motivated by m&ms like no kid I know! He started of his own interest, and with a little chocolate prompting, and lots of running around naked, he successfully goes pee and poo on the toilet, by himself, when he needs to. And it is only day 3! But put underwear on the kid and accidents are nonstop, what is it about nakedness that helps with bladder and bowel control? Lyla was the same way.

Oh and Jesse built me a goat pen. Is that true love or what? I can't believe that wonderful man puts up with me! So here is to new year, may it be abundant with fresh raw milk, and less diaper washing (now that it's only Ashley buns in cloth!)
