Grandpa Harvala thought maybe he could teach Joshua to use the toilet when they were here before Thanksgiving. I am proud to announce we are currently potty training. He insists on sitting on the big toilet rather than the little potty training chairs... go figure since we've got one for each bathroom! Oh well, it's going pretty well. He always manages to go a little bit whenever we put him on. He's even gone #2 now! He's all about wiping, flushing and washing his hands on his own too!
Joshua for a little while got attached to Elmo, here he thinks Elmo needs a diaper. First he needs to be wiped though.
Joshua & Mallory when we had the Hanson thanksgiving the saturday before.
And last but not least, we got the good job done of painting Miriam's bedroom right before Thanksgiving time. I decided to go a little bit girly but stay a little neutral (it's been said it could be Vikings themed if it needs to be a boy room in the future). It freshened it up nicely and it gives you the feeling someone's living there now with a little personalization added to it. The upstairs probably hasn't been painted in a good 20 years, so it was time! We would also like to do the other two bedrooms upstairs (ours and Joshua's) I think we've got a plan worked out for Joshua's room, but we're still thinking about ours. Here's a picture of Joshua helping mark the spot where the next line of tape should go for the top of the stripe. We put purple on the bottom, yellow on top and then added a brown stripe. In the picture the purple looks blue so you really aren't seeing the right color. I'll have to remember to get a picture of what it looks like with it finished.

ooo yeah for pictures. I even noticed your top corner picture is different from indians. I like in the begining where you are thankful that at least he didn't run all around the house with the sugar, that made me laugh a little. Good thing the tape marking spot wasn't any further up or you would need a taller tape markee.
I just had to zoom in on Joshua on the potty. He smiles so proudly.
hhmmm there's a sentence that's usually not legal..hee hee JK! I noticed he was smiling too. But to think more about it..who was the one that posted him on the toilet..hehee
