Memorial Day 2015

Our Memorial Day was very quiet and spent at home.  For some reason both kids were simply exhausted, so we skipped the parade, made Belgian waffles and played at home.  It rained on and off, so we were only able to spend a little time outside.  I cleaned the lawn mower, which meant pulling out the hose and the kids took this as an opportunity to make mud pies in the backyard.  Goodness those kids love their dirt hole.   Noomi insisted on wearing her helmet the entire time they were playing outside, safety first.

Noomi continued doing well with the potty training and even woke up dry on Tuesday morning.  We decided to continue with the training and sent her to school in her underwear.  I only checked in on her once today and the teacher said she was doing great – asking to use the potty and only had one accident.  When we got home, however, she had two accident – one major accident that involved a bleach clean up and a large load of laundry.   Seriously, I thought girls were supposed to be easier to potty train?  Ajax was incredibly easy to potty train, but now I wonder if I just don’t remember it correctly.

At school today Ajax lost his front tooth!   This is tooth number 3 that he’s lost.  He was so excited and said maybe the tooth fairy will leave me $1 or maybe $8!  Dave immediately quashed that saying, no the tooth fairy will not leave you $8.  I concur.
