Ben is now in possession of Harold the Helicopter of the Thomas series, and do you know why? Drumroll please….. HE WENT POO POO IN THE POTTY! Yes, it should be on headline news tonight folks, it has been done! Okay, so it’s not Britney Spears showing off her post-baby body and singing (oh wait,…
Another Week of Firsts
It’s been another week of firsts in this family, some of them positive and one not so. Gavin got his first little cold and has just entered the “drippy” phase of it so now there is just one more part of his body I have to wipe! HA! : ) He has still slept fine…
Weekend Update
I have a little story that I find amusing and hope you do too… As you all know Ben is in potty training mode (thanks again for the advice to those of you who chimed in, some of it is already working better). Anyway, on to the little story. Since we are working so hard…
A week of Firsts
So it was the first week of Ben’s new school and my role as full time Mommy. It’s gone pretty well (of course we still have tomorrow…). Ms. Monica is Ben’s new teacher and like a complete slacker I did not get their picture together but it’s not like it’s kindergarten or something… geez… Anyway,…
2 Little Fish
We went to Bedford Splash yesterday and it was Gavin’s first time in the water. It was a good day to take the kids because it was a little overcast and we even had to take cover during a short rain storm. Here are a few pictures of the boys from our adventure. Gavin sporting…
My First Video
My friend Lisa, who also has a blog and introduced me to it, said she could now upload videos WITHOUT using You Tube so I had to see if I could do it too (I have always been too scared to even try it). She’s such a blogger pioneer! Anyway, I tried it and apparently…
The Last Day at TLC
So, yes, Ben begins a new chapter in his educational life after today, his last day at TLC Daycare. He’s been really loved there and his afternoon teacher, Miss Nettie, told me yesterday that he is what gets her through the day and that she will really miss him. Oh my goodness, I felt so…
“Silly Sandwhiches,” Etc.
So, Ben has come up with a new game from his plethora of food items that go in his shopping basket. He’s decided that it is fun to make “silly sandwhiches” out of the various foods, while stacking them on top of each other. He’s made me play this game about 3 times now since…
Austinification
The boys and I just got back yesterday from a 5 day trip to Austin and it was Gavin’s first trip. He was introduced to his aunts, uncles and ALL of his Hosek cousins!! We all drove down on Friday and Tim returned alone on Sunday while the little boys and I stayed over. We…
90 X 2 = Wonderful!
We celebrated the birthdays of Carolyn and Gordon Teague this weekend. These are Tim’s maternal grandparents and a pair of the lovliest people I know. Carolyn’s 90th birthday was on July 22nd of this year and Gordon’s will be on January 19th of 2008. Their children decided to pick a weekend to do a dual…
