Update- with pictures.

So life is getting back to "normal" at least for the time being. The boys continue to make us laugh and keep us entertained.


Even grocery shopping is fun with the boys!

Vance is finally deciding that he will permit us to serve him "regular" food. He is so picky! Joel would eat just about anything we gave him. Vance will put just about anything we give him in his mouth. Then proceed to take it out and fling it across the dining room. Heaven help me. He is getting better though. And when he is in one of his "particular" moods we have an extra set of hands that are willing to help.


Chowing down on spaghetti.


"More!"
(Note to self, remember to put a bib on whenserving spaghetti to the boys.)


Joel feeding Vance.
This is a true win win. Joel loves feeding Vance (it was his idea.)
And Vance will eat things for Joel that he won't for us.
Pure genius!


Joel is just beginning the stages of potty training. (Much to my dismay. I wanted to wait and potty train Joel and Vance at the same time!) Anyhow, it's a work in progress. We wait for him to show interest. We did buy him new underpants. Of course with his new obsession he was thrilled with the Thomas the Train pants. What is it with kids that they just instinctively put underwear on their heads?! Literally I took them out of the package and that is the first thing he did. Crazy kid. At least they were clean, right?!


Our underpants genius.


So proud of those new underwear!


Potty training is fun!
This is not a typical PT session.

Vance is my mischievous little guy. He has no fear and is just so inquisitive. When he empties the box of wipes for the 4th time in 4 boxes of wipes I don't quite appreciate the inquisitiveness of it all. (I know I should just put the wipes away but sometimes I just forget. Pathetic excuse, I know.)


Testing mommy's sanity.


Vance vs the bubbles.
He's just so funny that you've got to love his mischievous streak.

Those pictures are adorable. They have really grown and sound just like typical little boys. You are lucky!

Don't give up on the pickyness. Just keep feeding him a variety of foods or he will continue to be picky. Good luck potty training. I am dreading doing it again!
