My big boy...

I walked in from work about a week ago and John was changing Hunter's diaper. Apparently it stunk pretty bad because John said "Hunter WHAT DID YOU EAT?!? This stinks!" and Hunter in his most innocent matter of fact voice states: "I DON'T EAT POOP DAD." I could not keep my self from busting a gut.

Needless to say that was the kick off to Hunter's potty training to which Grammy's high pitched encouragement and zealous praise has contributed to Hunter practically potty training himself! Who woulda thunk it would be that easy...I might have considered letting him rip his diaper off earlier. I would not say we are completely diaper free but almost.

His second big accomplishment this week has been learning to swim. John decided to buy the kids diving rings to see if he could get them to finally get their heads under the water and low and behold it worked! They started diving like little fishes...swallowing gallons of water in the process but hey they aren't screaming about getting their faces wet. Then Hunter was sitting on the side of the pool and jumped in. I of course FREAK OUT and John's like hold on a minute lets see what he does so he just starts swimming to John and ends up swimming half way across the pool! Well Kylie was jealous and did not want to be out done so she tried but only made it two lanes worth. Still a HUGE accomplishment.

So here's my tribute to Hunter who turns 3 today, my big boy who taught himself to go potty and swim...what does he need me for?? (I guess for the snuggles, I hope he hasn't grown out of that already too!)

Kids say the darndest things...vol. 2

Here's an addition to my last post. I took the kids for a walk on Sunday afternoon and Kylie road her bike and Hunter was pushing Emma in the stroller. We had made it quite a ways away from the house and were on our way back when Kylie stopped and got off her bike. When I asked her what she was doing she said "I have to get gas in my bike mommy or I won't make it home!" I started to laugh as she pretended to pump 5 gallons into her bike. Then Hunter stopped and started to fill the stroller up with gas. Hunter said "I need gas too mom!"

The other night Kylie came running into my room at 4 in the morning because she had a bad dream. When I asked her what was wrong she said "Mommy there are worms in my tummy!!" I said "oh no are you sure??" She said "I know mommy I saw them in my dream, there are worms in my tummy and they go RARR RARR RARR!!"
