Potty Trainning

Peek-a-boo, Welcome to 2010! On New Years day off came the diapers, on came the big boy underwear! Ryder was so excited about his new underwear he spent 20 min deciding which pair to put on. "thomas underwear?, no, Buz underwear? No, woody underwear? no, we wear spiderman underwear!"

Once the big boy underwear went on and we were stuck at home for days on end it was time to rearrange the bedroom and make room for all those christmas presents. Bye, bye changing table, hello new library. Ryder has a bit of an obession with the library at school so we made one at home. A fort/library. Mostly it is where all of the animals and books are sleeping.

By day two, after you have run out of paint, glue, paper, plato and rearranged the room. We thought we would take our very first piggy back ride on mommy. 35lbs on a ten min piggy back ride will really cause you some pain.

By day three, when they really get it and will be totally done with diapers, the throw ups and ear infection set in BIG TIME! Trying to potty train in between throwing up and crying from the ear pain we decided to end the potty training for now. You only have so many towels and waterproof items you can use in weekend.

We are back into pull ups for now and will try again another time. At least we got the house organized!

Fort Gunner

After Christmas The Lims and McCords headed to Fort Gunner for a cold afternoon.

The kids loved sliding, climbing, driving and swinging.

Gunner cannot get enough of Hanky, it is so sweet to watch.

Thanks Gunner!

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

Happy Holidays! We hope everyone had a good holiday this year.
We had a very busy holiday! The pictures are running backwards from Christmas day this time. Ryder getting ready for bed in his new Buz Lightyear PJ's, holding his new spiderman motercycle and snuggling with owen as usual.

A little worn out after opening all his new presents. Santa brought the trampoline and it is not only fun to jump on but to do puzzles on and just lay down for a rest.

Santa had a great idea giving a 2 year old a place to jump as much as he wants! Trampoline to sofa, trampoline to chair, up and down everywhere!

Of course the Cozy Coupe is the winner! Due to the weather the cozy coupe has found a home inside the house. Lets hope the weather gets nice soon so we can move the "new buggy" outside instead of driving it from room to room all day.

Christmas eve, as usual, was too hectic for many pictures. But a typical evening with all the kids always ends up with everyone piled on top of each other. The only way to break up this was to head to the computer and see if santa was getting close. Once Santa hit the Atlantic, it was time to head home. I do not think any of the kids could have been more excited. Also, for those of you who have not discovered www.portablenorthpole.com it is a MUST! This really got each kids so excited htey would not even tell each other what santa said to them.

Just before the Holiday started Scotty got sick. Well if daddy is sick, then Ryder must be sick too. He crawled into bed and said "Mommy, I sick and I just need to lay"! I had to pull the camera out to mark the moment that my child started faking sick so he could lay around too.

Chocolate Party! I melted 20lbs of chocolate and had all the kids over to make chocolate pretzels, chocolate snowmen, chocolate christmas trees....chocolate anything! We had to let them running around the back yard for a few hours after this party.

Game day! Get on your football shirt and your UGA hat and you are ready to go!

The obsession with Trains is not dying down. It just got even better with all the christmas Trains out there to see. This one was at The Bass Pro Shop. (Father, Son outing)
