The Best Day Of His Life!

Myles says some of the funniest things. He continues to crack me up on a daily basis. I picked him up from Kindermusik today and he said, "This is the best day of my life." He then began to tell me that today in class they got their instrument for the semester, A Glockenspiel.. He is so thrilled to have it and keeps it right by him wherever he goes.





Here he is showing off his Glockenspiel skills.



Last week when I was decorating the Christmas tree he said, "Sometimes when I see beautiful things, it makes me want to cry." He has such a way with words and is a sweet, thoughtful boy. We sure do love you, MyMy

QUEEN OF THE THRONE..............



Miss Maggie decided to join the "big girl club" and start using the potty. It took 4 years and a couple handfuls of days for her to jump onboard. It was a lot of stressing on my part and many, many accidents until finally we would give it up for awhile only to try it again a couple weeks down the road. We did this routine for the last year and a half. We begged, bribed, pleaded, got frustrated (mostly Ron and I) until one day this little gal was told there was no other option. We knew from day one that she was smart enough to do it, but boy is she Stubborn. My boys were both potty- trained the summer they turned 3 and I thought for sure Maggie would be a cinch. Was I ever wrong! I can proudly annouce that she has done it and has not had an accident once. We are so proud she finally did it! I'm especially thankful there are no more pull-ups to change! Way to go, Maggie............

HALLOWEEN FUN

We love,love, love Halloween at our house, especially Myles. He loves anything that is creepy, crawly, and just plain scary. He is always envisioning what his choice of costume will be for the next year even before we have made it to the present Halloween. The kids enjoyed TRICK or TREATING and their moutain of candy... Aww the days of being a kid!

Mason, for what seems like every year chose again to be a HUNTER. I guess I shall get used to this since that is all he likes to do.





Myles of course wanted to be something scary and all black. He chose "Dark Vader." This is the name that "Darth" has been known by at our house.
Maggie this year chose to be a COWGIRL.

I'm gonna try this out.......

So I am totally new to the blogging world. What I mean by that is that I have never had a blog of my own. I have followed my sisters and friends blogs for a long time, but decided to give it a try for myself. Bear with me....
