Potty Training

Decided to start trying to potty train Alyssa again. So, I went to Walmart and we let her pick out her own potty. She picked a Dora the Explorer one. Well... she loves to sit on that thing. It has not even been a week, and she tells me all the time when she has to TEE... that is pee in Alyssa language. Mommy tee, mommy tee. she of course tells me this even when she doesn't have to but, just in case, off we go. I have never see a baby pee so much in my life! At least fifteen time today, for real and then four accidents. That is not including when I put her down for a nap and forgot to put a pull up on her. My bad on that one.
Anyways, she is doing wonderfully. No she just has to realize that she doesn't have to sit on the potty every time she has to fart!!!! :)

Let it snow

Here are some pictures after the first snow fall. It was so Beautiful, and it finally felt like Christmas. Carols playing and lights all ablaze, it was a wonderful feeling.

Gingerbread House

whoops, forgot to flip the pic before uploading!
This is our gingerbread house that we made tonight. It was a tonne of fun with Micah and Thomas trying to decorate and Alyssa trying to eat all the candy off the house. The icing was my job, but I did not to a good job. I guess that cake decorating will not be my next calling.

December 1st

I can't believe that the first of December has arrived already. So much to do still, and yet such a wonderful time of year that it doesn't seem that big of a deal. This is the most wonderful time of the year. I love it when my children are excited and mostly happy. I love having a hold over them too. If you do that again...
Micah's new quote is, " I know how much my parents love me by how expensive the toys are!" Man, we must not love them too much. hahaha
Other than that, I also love the colours and sounds of Christmas.
