Field Trip

Taylor's class had a field trip to the World Wild Life Zoo. Being a stay at home mom I was able to chaperon. It was a lot of fun. We have been there before with my parents and I have been there twice with Rylee for Field Trips.















They just opened another part and added an aquarium. They even put in a Flume ride. Here is Tay and some of the kids riding the ride

There are a few spots where the kids can touch some sea life.

They have so many animals and you can get really close. Here is her group with a White Rhino. It was a lot of fun.

Daddy Daughter Dance

Every year at the girls school they have a Daddy Daughter Dinner Dance. Last year Jeremy was still in school and was unable to take the Taylor. Grandpas and Uncles can bring their kids if Daddys can't. So Taylor called her Uncle Aaron and he flew out and brought her. Rylee was unable to go because she didn't attend the school. This year when we got the tickets the girls were so excited! They got all dolled up and enjoyed it.
Before the girls went to get their hair done I had them jump in the shower with bags on their head so they wouldn't get their hair wet. It was very cute! They had been at school all day and I wanted them so be nice and clean.

I took the girls over to my friend Alison's house. She is a hair dresser and did the girls hair. Taylor enjoyed getting all done up.



She did some curls on top then put her hair in curlers and had the bottom half down.




Rylee didn't her hair up. So Alison used a wavy iron
It's like a crimper (you know from the 80's) but it's more of a curl.When she was done she put a black and white head band in her hair









Both girls got corsages from their daddy.

Taylor's was red roses
Rylee got White roses.

I bought the girls new shoes and they had some cute dresses. We painted their nails and put their jewelry on.

I think they all looked great. Even my sexy hubby!




At the dance they were served spaghetti, salad and rolls. Of course they wanted to dance and were starving when they get home.


They each got glow necklaces.
Taylor and her friend







Jeremy danced a few times with Tayl0r and a little with Rylee. He said Rylee wanted to dance more with her friends then with him.
For the most part I think the daddys stand around watching their daughters dance.


















There was a conga line and both girls were in the front.










At the end of the night there is a drawing for gifts. Taylor won! She got a folder and a note book. They got home just after 8:30pm Friday night and were so happy and had so much fun. Even Daddy did!

Potty Time

I bought a potty chair a few months ago for Diesel. He went on it a few times but wasn't ready to really start potty training.

On Super Bowl Sunday I was changing Diesel's diaper and he had a little rash. I mentioned to Jeremy that I was thinking about changing the diaper brand. Jeremy said why don't we just get rid of them all together. I thought about it and decided it had been a few months and we should really try it again. So just like I did with the girls I let Diesel run around without any pants.

Monday I had a doctors appointment so he was only "free" in the am. But did pretty good. He peed a little on his way to the potty but was bale to stop himself and finish on the potty.

Every day has just gotten better and better. Thursday and Friday he didn't have any accidents. Friday he even had diarrhea. Now he just runs to the bathroom on his own and half the time I don't even know he has gone. Sometimes he yells "POTTY, POTTY" as he runs down the hall. then I just run after him. It's so cute. Friday he had disappeared and this is what I found. I guess he is just like all the men!

Busy reading his Policeman Book

Being a ham as usual

When he is all done he dumps his potty in the big potty and I rinse it out.

He has come down with something and had a few accidents yesterday but still did really good. He even took a nap yesterday with out a diaper and was dry.
