Toilet Training Initiated - by Calleigh!

To avoid the unneccessary graphics of toilet training detail, I'll just say we are on our way to no more dirty diapers - yay!!

Thought this was a fluke thing, but 10 days in, still going strong on this - wow how children are different! And of course two children will keep you home alot more to give them the opportunity to toilet train.

Cooperation

I caught the kids getting drinks. Calleigh got the juice from the fridge and Dax got up on the counter to get the cups.
These are Mommy's favorite toy. The kids learn new ways to work them and different combos to make their towers higher. They loved working together this day. (Some days they prefer to do their own, but this day they were so loving working together.)

I'd like to say Calleigh dressed them here, but it was in fact Dax. They both LOVE to dress up. I think Dax liked my extreme raction the first time he put on a tutu. I'm trying to ignore it now:)

Promption Sunday - Big Church!

They grow up so fast. I say and hear this phrase too often. Today was promotion Sunday and Dax is in the 4 year old class which means he is out of the child care and on to Sunday School. It also means he gets to attend church with us for the worship part of service then go to kid church. Dax did well for the first service. He of course had trouble sitting still.
Calleigh is out of the nursery and on to child care. I guess shes not a baby anymore!

Creation According to Dax

Dax: Mommy, you have to give me time.
Me: Why?
Dax: Because thats how God made people, Mommy.
Me: (Curious by this response) How did God make people?
(Diverting from our original context and in all confidence)
Dax: First there were a bunch of frogs and God took them and ground them into a bunch of tiny little peices and made the skeleton. Then He covered it with skin and stuck in eyeballs. Thats how God made people.

We are deciding on a church near our new home. The kids are sold on this one I think:)
