Oh! Almost forgot... Joshua used only 1 pair of undies all day today! Yes, we're potty training. We thought we've been doing it for awhile, but not really. Last monday evening I finally laid down the law and said no more diapers for Joshua! We packed them all away for Miriam to use some day (if she even gets to size 5 before potty training) and we've been using undies ever since... even at night we did only undies but every morning he woke up wet so sunday night on the way to Dar's I got a pack of "nighttime pants" from the grocery store. (Shh! they're really pull-ups.) Anyway, I would say in a span of only 1 1/2 weeks he's doing really well! So when I said he only used one pair today that means he had NO accidents today and yesterday he only had one! If I don't tell him "Let's go potty" because I see signs he needs to go or if he doesn't actually come tell me "I have to go potty", he has actually been going into the bathroom himself and then I go after him ask if he has to go potty or say "okay let's go" and I help him get the undies down (he can't do it by himself) & pants and sit on the potty chair and he goes! Ahhh preschool here comes Joshua!

Joshua sitting on the steps and pouting because I woke him up from his nap.
I think Miriam wanted to take a bath!

We were sorting through Joshua's clothes for his cousin Trace and I guess he thought this hat still fits him! I think it's a 12 month hat, I don't remember for sure though!
Playing ping ponk in the kitchen before supper (daddy just got home, I guess Joshua couldn't wait long enough to let him take his jacket off).
Check out Miriam's fancy tennis shoes! Her cousin Mallory got her those.
Miriam can be quite the book worm at times. Give her a book and she'll calm down.
Joshua had a case of impetigo behind his ear, so he had some pink liquid Cephalexin to take for about 10 days I think. We never had any problems with him taking his medicine.... I remember him saying "good" and even asking for more one time. I suppose it probably didn't help that mommy was taking medicine during the same time (I pretty much had strep throat - the test was negative, but the PA put me on some meds anyway). It's a good thing G'ma & G'pa Harvala gave us their old liquid medicine spoon thing - it sure helped, Thanks!
I found Joshua like this when I went to wake him from a nap... he LOVES the Lion King and "Seba". It's a good thing we have 1, 1 1/2, and 2 for a little variety - they could be the only movies in the world and he wouldn't care.
Miriam sporting the new hooded shirt aunt Brenda gave her... she got it from a swap she particiapted in and well, it's a little small for Mallory.
Last but not least, Miriam playing the drum.
