Spring is here!

Well not technically. It's still winter according to the calendar. But if you step outside, you'll agree Spring is here. The weather is cool and sunny. There are even the spring insects. We've seen butterflies and rollie pollies. I feel like it is the start to something new. So, I began potty training Tabitha. I have attempted it a few times, and just give up. But not this time. I am determined not to buy another box of diapers. Joshua was this same age when he was potty trained, and they say girls learn faster. We'll see. So far, she's gone a few times in the potty. Progress is good.

In the morning, I pulled out a craft, and in the end Joshua made a pair of glasses and put on a cape and cowboy hat to go with them. Too cute!

Then we went out to our back patio to clean it up. The sandbox was ruined due to the rain so we emptied it completely, added soapy water, and the kids washed the outside toys. In the meantime I was taking all the furniture off and adding give a soapy rinse to the concrete.

We then had a picnic, came inside to clean their rooms and they took a nap. It was a great morning. Very productive, much time spent with the kids, and nobody was bored. Joshua didn't even ask to watch Scooby Doo. (That means he was having fun!)
