A Very Busy Week!

Well, this has been a very busy week in our household. April 1st - Hunter decided that he wanted to start to use the big boy potty. We really weren't thinking of potty training him but I guess he was ready and so now we will be concentrating on getting him to use the potty full time soon. It shocked us when he said he had to go poop and then went and did it on the potty...we were cheering for him when he was done.





April 2nd & 3rd - Hailey decided that she was going to take her first steps by herself. I told Jason that she had taken 2 steps on her own and then when Jason got home in the morning he put her on the floor and she took 5 steps and walked to him. This is just exciting to me and the thought that our kids are growing up. It's also nice to think that we are just one more step closer to no more bottle, diapers and baby toys. After almost 7 years of diapers and bottle in the house we are ready to move on to the next phase in our childrens lives.







Now to April 9th - Jason was out with the kids and watching Spencer ride his bike. He came in the house and told me that he didn't think that Spencer needed training wheels anymore. I told him to go and take them off and see what happens. Three minutes later he was back in the house and said "Well, that was the easiest thing I've done". Spencer was already off and riding. Jason never had to leave his seat. He put Spencer on the bike and told him to "Go", and Spencer "went".



I can't think of the last time that we have had a productive week like this, and it was all self-driven by the kids.
