Catching up

The past few weeks have been pretty eventful.
Our little girl is officially potty trained...WAHOO! I can't remember the last time I had to change a very stinky diaper, it is AWESOME. She is so big!

I have been enjoying mine and Billy's Christmas gift, our new camera. I haven't figured much out, but it sure is fun to use.

Kens is my little model



Kens went to the dentist for the first time, she did great! She loved it there, she was so cute and loves her dentist. She is all about brushing and flossing her teeth now. I knew the day was coming, time to break her favorite habit, sucking her thumb. I feel like since she is potty trained, we can start working on this. She is doing amazing! She wants to be a big girl and have "pretty Dora teeth". She doesn't really suck her thumb during the day it is just when she is sleeping. So for naps and bedtime we have been putting a sock on her hand. The first night that we did this she woke up crying, I thought it was because she wanted to suck her thumb, but she was crying because her sock fell off.
Sleepy boy
Our poor boy had to have surgery and get put under. This is him trying to recover, he slept most of the day. I love his hair in this picture, it was a long day.Billy and Kenslee had a funny conversation the other night, this is how it went...
Kens: I like it when mommy puts me to bed
Billy: Why
Kens: Because she smells good
Billy: What do I smell like
Kens: Dirt

Poor Billy, I don't think he smells like dirt!

Congrats on the potty training! That is so exciting! That's too bad that Cade had to get surgery! I hope he is doing much better! I've always thought Bill smelled like dirt! :)

Congrats on the potty training. I have decided that trying to potty train is the official low point of motherhood. I HATE IT! Kenslee looks adorable in the pictures!
