Pushups

I've made some progress! My new max for consecutive pushups is 55...Still a long ways from 100, but at least I got somewhat closer.

MY NEW FAVORITE PIZZA

BBQ sauce, chicken, onions, zucchini, red peppers, broccoli, and mozzarella cheese. YUM! None of the veggies were cooked before they were put on. Try it. and if you have any other veggie favorites that you love on pizza I would LOVE to know!

P.S. I was too lazy to cook up some real chicken so we cut up chicken nuggets and put them on top. It actually turned out tasting pretty good!

LUCKY ME!

Austin is potty trained!!! Well, we'll see how the next couple weeks go but he's gone a good 3 days in his underwear. (diapers for sleeping). We even went to the zoo for 5 hours and he peed in the toilet there twice. WOW!

We tried out a new science experiment...vinegar in the bottle and baking soda in the balloon.

He loved it when the balloon blew up

After I tied off the balloon Austin was trying to figure out how to get some of the leftover baking soda out of the balloon. Then I got the idea of putting a pearl into another balloon that I blew up and he loved shaking that up as well. Simple pleasures!

Here he is sporting his new underwear

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

I made all the Shamrocks from Felt. I love how it turned out! I got the vase for 50 cents at Goodwill and used pipe cleaners for the stems. I love green!

Big Boy Trip!

Tyler and Austin flew to Illinois a week ago Thursday until Sunday. Tyler went to a "Canoecopia" Convention (All about canoes and kayaks) with his dad and Austin got to hang out with Grandma and Amanda. Lucky Kid! Actually LUCKY ME! It was me and Blake all weekend and what a treat that was!

Of course there were trips to the park! The first thing I asked Austin when he got back was, "What did you do at grandma's house?" He replied..."I played with TRUCKS!"

It was Amanda's 13th Birthday the day they flew in.! A teenager already? I guess she's acted old enough to be one for about 4 years now. :)

Meet Squints

We have fun at the dinner table

This is Blake's classic squints smile...he copies us as we laugh and laughs too. Maybe this is what we look like too, we just don't realize it.

Austin is learning, slowly, how to share toys with Blake...
