Return of Yoda and other cute pics

So I started this post on Monday and I am just getting around to finishing in now and it will be short because it was late and Emma was up at 4:30 in the morning.

Hard to believe March is almost over. Things have not changed much around here lately. Between working at the restaurant, working from home and raising two little ones, I don't have much free time.

My husband has been off for the month of March and will be going back to work on Tuesday. I will miss his help around here, especially when it comes time for me to do my work-from-home stuff.

Potty training with Sam is going well. He still does not tell us if he has to go, but he does not put up a fight when we say it is time to go sit down and he will usually go within a few minutes. He stands up when he is down and says "Cookie, Cookie!" His hands start to shake when we bring out the treat because he is so excited, it is pretty cute!

Emma is getting quicker at crawling all over. She is getting stronger at pulling herself up, but most times she does need assistance. Though if how quick she started crawling is any indication, she may be walking sooner than we think!

Hope you enjoy the pictures,

God Bless

Potty Training and Blowing Kisses

That is what is new around here lately.

The potty training, well let's just say it going. We have been at it for a little over a month and he goes at least once a day but we usually give him a big glass of water or milk to get him to go. Is that wrong? This is our first attempt at potty training and I have heard that training boys is harder than girls. So any suggestions would be appreciated!

My husband worked with a guy who was having a hard time training his daughter. She had this stuffed bear that was her favorite toy. So they ended up putting Mountain Dew and Baby Ruth candy bars in her little toliet and put the bear on there and told her the bear "went" on the toliet and from that day on, she wanted to go on the toliet. We may have to implement that someday with Sam's cow if we don't get anywhere!

I had just gotten Emma up from her nap when Dennis came home and she just blew him a kiss! It is not something we had worked on with her, but Sam is always blowing kisses when it is time to go somewhere. It was super sweet, just like her. Well most of the time anyway! She is starting to move a little more now. At least she has started to roll over and pull her one arm out from under her. And just a little while ago, she actually rolled over from her back to her tummy to her back again, which I have not seen her do in months!(Unless I help her do it, which usually does not make her happy!)
She will have her therapy again on Friday so hopefully she will do some of her new tricks for the therapist.

We took our tree down today and I was vacuuming up the needles with our smaller vacuum which I let Sam play with after I was done. He played with it for 2 hours, pushing it around the apartment, up and down the hall, happy as a lark. At least it kept him busy while I did the dishes and whatnot.

I will try to get Emma on video blowing her kisses and Sam also has a special talent that I will try to get him on video as well, though that is not going very well because every time I get camera ready, he won't do it. So we will see how that goes!

A few Christmas pictures, of course we could not get them to look at the camera and smile at the same time.





Have a great night!
God Bless, Jodi
