No More Diapers?!?

I think that we will soon be a diaper free household!! Harper decided on Sunday that she did not want to wear diapers anymore, and she has only had a few accidents in the last couple days. I hope that she is completely potty trained by this weekend!

Vacation!

We spent a few days in the Ozarks with my family.  It was so much fun!  The kids loved swimming, feeding the ducks, fish and turtles and going on their first boat ride.

Reece mastered the backfloat!
No fear! He did "cannonballs" all day!


Too cool!

Our Fun Day


Today, Reece and Harper had their dentist appointments.  I told them their reward for being good would be a trip to the Children's Museum.  They both did GREAT at the dentist!  Then we had a fun day at the museum and stopped for ice cream on the way home.

Remodel: Update

Our home remodel is almost over!

Back of house, there is now a window in the spot where the siding is missing.

Family Room, window hole.

Harper's new room!

Reece's new room!

Smurfs

Reece is really into the Smurfs right now.  Nana took him to Build a Bear this weekend to get one, he named him Franky!

Sunday Fun!

We headed to Des Moines on Sunday to take in the Blank Park Zoo and spend the night at a hotel.  I think that it was one of the hottest days of the year so far, we only made it 1 hour at the zoo.  We headed to the hotel, which has an indoor waterpark and played there.  Shari and Brian came and hung out for a while, it was fun to get to see them!

Two attempts to get a good picture, they were so hot and tired. 

On our way home on Monday.

Make-up

Harper was getting ready to go on a field trip at school yesterday.  Her teacher helped her put on her swimsuit then handed her some "make-up" to put on.  She has been pretty much terrified to let me put sunscreen on her face, but she loves putting on this make-up!!
