A few pics from the week

 Lauren & Braelyn played for hours on Wednesday. Braelyn came home from preschool with us at noon and didn't go home until 5. The second we closed the door Lauren said, "Mom I'm bored, can you play with me?" This girl needs a playmate 24-7 and she never gets tired! I love watching all the games they play. Here they are having a picnic with the 2 year old orphan they found and adopted. Such humanitarians;) 
 Ben got this new remote control truck. He LOVES it, he likes to sit next to it and buckle it in and they pretend to go driving together. He's already asking for a bigger one...what is it with boys and their toys?! 
Lauren is in love with this darling dress from Auntie Meg & Uncle Ryan. If only the sun would come out and she could wear it. 

That's it for pics this week, didn't take too many. I was too busy doing laundry, Ben has decided to regress in his potty training and he is peeing in his pants (and pooping if you really want to know) non stop! I'm about ready to put him back in diapers but he did so good for 2 weeks so I KNOW he can do it so I don't want to give up. And I thought he was my easy one...doesn't feel so easy when I'm cleaning up  poop and pee and washing 15 pairs of underwear a day!!!

Ugh, what a pain on the regression. He'll get it. :-)

Val, when I was assigned the task of potty-training Mikey, I bought him new underwear with his favorite things on them (in his case we went with Spiderman and little bugs). I explained to him that Spidey and all the little bugs did NOT like being pooped and peed upon and he could only wear the new undies if he could use the potty. I also bought him a book (I think it was "My Big Boy Potty") and we read it at least a zillion times. It worked, he trained himself in one day! Or maybe he was just ready to give up the dipes :-)

You're a good Mama. Take no advice from me;).
