Hair Cut

Before After
I finally broke down and let them cut Levis hair. I love his long hair but he started to look like a girl so I figured it was time. Aunt Amy cut his hair for us. She did a wonderful job and its hard to cut a 3 year old hair.

Weekend Update

I think it is safe to say that Levi is potty trained. Its been 7 days and only two accidents. The last two mornings he has woken up with a dry diaper. Its made a big difference only have one child in diapers.
We are signing Levi up for soccer. We got him some shin guards and a soccer ball so we can practice at home. The games start at the end of the month.
He is doing really well in swim lessons. The last session ended on Friday but he will still be a Starfish on Monday cause he needs to be a little bigger for the next class. His teacher Lisa is not teaching this next session so we will find out who his new teacher is on Monday.
We are having spring weather around here. Friday we had sun, rain, hail, snow and wind. Today we got outside a little cause its starting to get warm.

Enjoying the sun

We started some seed last week and they are taking off like crazy. We better get working on the garden so they have some where to go when they get bigger.

Teeth and no diaper

Squishy is trying to grow teeth. I have had a feeling that was his problem so I keep checking his gums and yesterday I noticed the smallest tip of a tooth. Hes getting so big.

I know that I should not mention any thing cause I am just going to jink myself but we are on day 3 of no diapers for Lumpy and only one accident. He even went to the gym daycare yesterday in big boy underwear and did not have an accident. Everyone told me that they will not potty train until they are ready and I believe them now. He just decided on his own Monday that he was going in the potty. I woke him up for swim lessons Monday morning and put his swim suit on and than when we were walking out the door he told me he had to go potty so we went. Than after swim lessons I put his pants on with out a diaper cause I did not bring any. Than I was signing him up for the next lessons and he said he had go potty. So with Squishy strapped to my chest in the bojorn we go to the potty and I am trying to hold Lumpy up with and hold his jacket out of the way but we went potty. So that's what started the whole thing. If he was ready to tell me that he needed to go potty while we were out than I have not put a diaper on his since (except at night). I would be every happy if he is potty trained but like I said I have probably jinks myself. But maybe I wont have the only 4 year old in diapers. Heres to hoping.

Reading

This is a picture of Jeremy reading to the boys before bed. Levi LOVES to read.

Life is good. Just doing the normal stuff. We went to the Sportsman's Expo this past weekend. We have gone every year for the past 3 years. Its fun to go but there is not a lot for the kids to do so they tend to get a little board which means whinny and hard to drag around to all the adult things.
Jeremy has his mind set on buying a motorcycle so in the near future we will most likely have a motorcycle. But its ok cause I got an Iphone. I got an iphone for an early birthday present and I will just say that I LOVE it. The thing does everything!!!
My mom is coming out for Easter and I am so happy. I cant wait to see her. It will be so nice to have her here.
Well thats all I think I have to say for now.

LIfe is normal

Its been a long time since a post.
We are all doing well. Yesterday Levi had an appointment with Dr. Smith who is and ENT and there is fluid in his ears and its not infected right now but hes not suppose to have fluid and every time any doctor looks in his ear if there is not an infection than there is fluid so we are going to do tubes in his ears on April 5th. Than they will check his hearing about a month after that.
The weather is warming up and we were able to get outside yesterday and it felt great.
We are planing our trip to Cali and I am so excited. We get to stay on a house boat!
My mom also told me she coming out for Easter weekend and than makes me so happy.

4 months

Friday Levi passed his last swim class. He learned how to swim like a Jellyfish and Monday he will start the Starfish class. His teacher said he did great. Her only concern is that he has no fear what so ever of the water.
After swim lessons we went to Kyles 4 month check up. He is 16.9 lbs and 27 inches tall. He is off the chart for height. Levi better be nice to him cause Kyle might be bigger than him some day. Hes growing out of his 9 month clothes lengthwise. He still has an ear infection so we are back on stronger antibiotics. His legs are super sore today from the shots and his left leg has a huge knot under the skin from the shots. So hes a little grumpy tonight and I hope he feels better soon.

5k

Last week I started working out while Levi had his swim lessons. I know I am not "fat" but I have this belly that makes me look like I am still pregnant and it bothers me. So I decided that I would start working out. Instead of worrying about pounds and inches I have set a different type of goal. I want to run with my sister in a 5k over the Thanksgiving holiday. If you follow my blog you will remember that she ran in the Santa run when she came out here for Thanksgiving this past year. We have not decided if we are going out to CA for Thanksgiving or staying here ( I am really really hoping to go to CA) but either way I want to do a 5k. So today Jeremy and I were suppose to go to the gym after he got home but he ended up having to work way late so I went. I put both boys in the childcare. I am scared to death to leave Kyle in there but my want for a healthier me overcame my fear. I am so proud to say that I was able to do a 5k on the treadmill tonight. I know I am a long long way from keeping up with my sis but its a start. I love the way I feel but its hard cause I work out really hard and I want to see results. I want the instant gratification but its a process and I hope that I am able to sick with it. Levis last swim class is tomorrow but I have already signed him up for the next class which starts on Monday at the same time.
