Happy birthday Dad!

We had so much fun on my dad's birthday in honor of him.
Bellagio.
Conservatory.
Monet.
Gelato.
Magic tricks in the casino.
A picture at the "Welcome to Vegas" sign.
It was a day just like him. Awesome.

Make-up

Carson was putting my make-up on Sam this morning. He also put some on me and I got all the way to work before I realized I had lip gloss on my cheek.

Potty like a Rock Star

Sam has been wearing her big girl underwear for about a week now. She's had just a few accidents. I am so proud of her. It took me a year to train Carson so I was thrilled that this accomplishment took Sam just a few days. Good work Sam!

here's a tip

If you give your preschool age kids a bucket of water, a shovel, rocks, and dirt, they will spend 30 minutes making "soup".

start them young!

Carson likes to help mommy clean. This is no surprise considering genetics....he comes from a long bloodline of overly clean people. He loves to spray the windex and wipe it up. I like it!
