The only thing worse...

than cleaning poop out of Harper's underwear is cleaning it out of the bathtub...GROSS!

(She is now down to 0 pom poms)

Bribery??

Today I started a reward system for Reece and Harper.  We will see if it works, usually they are excited about this kind of thing for a few days then are over it.  I bought some little fluffy pom poms, they can earn one by doing things on our list.  They each have a small container that they decorated with their favorite stickers. When their container is full, they will get to pick a prize.
Our list is... To get 1 pom pom:
*Eat Dinner
      -whine/cry during dinner= 1 pom pom taken away
*Use Listening Ears
      -No listening ears or talking back= 1 pom pom taken away
*Pick up toys when done playing with them
*Bring bowls, cups and plates to the sink when done eating
*Throw away your garbage...juice boxes
*Harper using the potty

So far, Harper has 2 pom poms and Reece has 0.  She went potty and ate dinner, Reece whined and about threw up eating dinner.

Bird Expert

Reece is learning about birds this week at school.  He came home last night and told me about peacocks and blue jays, today he told me all about owls.  He is so smart!

Harper's Day!

Today is Harper's 3rd birthday.  She took cupcakes to daycare today to share with her friends.  She wanted to have hamburgers for supper, but settled for peanut butter and jelly!

Harper's Birthday Party

We celebrated Harper's 3rd birthday on Sunday.



Go Hawkeyes!






Reece and Harper in their Hawkeye gear before the first game!!  Clint and I went to the game on Saturday, it was awful.  We walked in the rain to the game and sat thru the first half in the rain, we left before halftime.
