Guess Who's Growing Up

This little one is going to be 3 in about 6 weeks.
To my delight, she has decided to start getting herself potty trained.
I don't like bargaining and begging and pleading and stressing, so I don't potty train kids anymore.
If they want to be big kids, they have to figure it out.
I don't remind her about using the potty, she just has to listen to her own body signals.

The past few days have gone swimmingly. Only 1 accident in 2 days, and she'll just head to the bathroom when she needs to do her business and doesn't ask me for any help. I'd call that the road to success.

Petting Zoo

We joined some sweet friends on a trip to a nearby petting zoo.

Jimmer mostly wanted to eat the food we were feeding the bunnies and guinea pigs.

These goats were pretty pushy.

I didn't do a fancy editing job on this photo - it was super washed out so I had to add some shadows just so the girls' faces were more visable. I wanted to add this picture because I made my kids BYU shirts with freezer paper stencils and fabric paint. Ryan's says "You Got Jimmered" and is pretty spiffy, if I say so myself. Also, Millie's shirt IS blue, it just is a different blue than Katie's.

Jimmer and Helmets

Pretty much this boy is a magnet to anything related to sports.
Balls, helmets, gloves, bats, skateboards, scooters, bikes, etc.

The skateboard is the worst - with the scooter being a close second. I'm not fond of him swinging that bat around, either.
