Well, we have the most amazing little potty-trainer in our midst!! :) Colette is now completely potty-trained in a matter of a few weeks (and when I say completely - I mean she is strictly in underwear - for naps, bedtime, going to the store, going to church, etc... No more accidents!!) It has been the craziest thing ever! I got her some pretty "princess" underwear to motivate her, and apparently, in the case of our little dress-up queen, that was all the motivation necessary! The first day I put her in it (January 19), she had a few accidents, of course, but then the moment I mentioned going back to a diaper, she was so horrified at not getting to wear her beautiful underwear, that all of a sudden, the child just knew how to keep from having accidents!! And that is pretty much how it went... Craziest thing I've ever seen! What a helpful time for an easy potty-trainer -- she has just been amazing us all!
This is just a fun picture of our two cute boys who happened to fall asleep on the same couch early one morning -- don't you just love those smooshed cheeks! :) These two are such good buddies already -- Samuel just adores his little brother (sometimes a little too much!) :) But I just love how they love eachother...
Brielle got her very first little journal for her birthday this year -- simply because she was taking every pad of paper in the house and calling it her journal (writing on every page!) Needless to say, she was quite excited to get a real one for her birthday (as were we - to save our paper)! :) She just LOVES writing in this journal... We can't believe what a good little writer she is. And she loves to draw a picture down at the bottom of every entry. It's turned into such a cute little keepsake now -- it's going to be so much fun to read and look at a few years down the road... :)

Wow, you do have awesome munchkins! That's an amazing potty-training story. How nice for you. And that's so neat that Brielle loves writing. Beckie loves to read, but HATES writing! The boys looks so sweet too, love the smooshed cheeks. I'm sure they'll be great little buddies!
That's pretty amazing with the potty training. I wish Jaina would do it like that, but I don't see it going that way...
It doesn't surprise me at all that Brielle is obsessed with journals, considering who her mother is!
