slacker

I have been a big blog slacker recently---and need to get back on track. Life is just plain busy and I want to remember it all!! Spring is in the air around here with the sand hill cranes back to nest, and woodchucks, muskrat, opossums, raccoons out and about day (and night). We've been awoken the past 2 nights from raccoons fighting (or mating) outside our windows. We are still deep in the throws of potty training. We had been using marbles as an incentive-the twins would get one marble to put in a cup every time they went wee wee and FIVE for #2. Well, scratch that and the dentist. Who knew bubble gum machines were FAR better than marbles in a cup. There has been more pee around here that ever before. I am secretly hoping the baby will not be far behind. While the girls have been wearing 'big girl panties' in the day (and wearing not much else but that-ugh)- we are still diaper dependent at night and poop is still a big issue.

Here is a typical snapshot in my day. Yesterday I had to work and when I got home, my mom, who I am daily indebted to for watching my children-was frying up noodles for their lunch...And what a mess noodles can make!!!! So there were noodles everywhere and smashed grapefruit pieces and someone decided that they were going to pee in their big girl panties and that was running down the chair. Oh and did I mention we have a major Asian ladybug crisis in our house as well as ants.....Blaine is calling the bug guy today....we are being overrun by insects. So, it was too early for a tub bath and to the sink it was. I think bathing in the sink must be much for fun than the tub or shower.





Here are my little skinnies with their Buddha Hair styles--and you can see who else wants IN!







definitely not happy about not getting in the sink-who knew I could really use 3 sinks



more piggy tail pics---they are just too funny and cute





This past weekend was Grandma Blanca's 100th Birthday. She had sewn these dresses for the twins when they were little and can still wear them as shirts. Happy Birthday Grandma!
