Nothing new.

Well we have not really been up to too much lately. I just can't believe how quickly the boys are growing up. As you can see in my next post down that the boys are potty trained. Hallelujah!!! It makes me kind of sad though that they are no longer babies. They are now little boys. They have been so crazy lately. Sometimes more that I can take. They are talking so good and love to copy anything Gary and I say. Definitely have to be careful what we say.
Somethings Preston says:
"Oh Crap" I have to take credit for that one, not really the best word but I figure there are worse ones he could be saying.
He calls Boston "Pesson" it is almost like he is saying Preston but he knows he is talking about Boston. It will mix Gary and I up and we will say yeah that is Preston or whatever and say Preston's name and he will say "No that's Pesson"
Lately he has been into Baseball. The last couple of mornings instead of watching cartoons on the Disney channel we have spent them watching "Sports Center" on ESPN. He comes into my room in the morning and says "Watch Baseball"
This morning after Preston had gone pee in the potty, he was holding his "pee pee" and told me "That's a pee pee." I said "Yes that is a pee pee." Then as he is walking away he states "No that is not a pee pee that a wiener" I had to laugh. I guess that is what we are calling it now.

Somethings Boston says:
He can say both his name and Preston's name very well. Lately when we call for Preston he yells "Preston Pacey" because that is what I yell alot since Pace is Prestons middle name.
I don't know what show he got this off of but he says "Arr Matey." Preston in return says "Arr Mickey"
The other day he thought I was sleeping on the couch and he came up and said "Sweet Dreams." We never say this to them so another thing I am not sure where he learned it from.
Every time we leave the house he says "Bye house"
Boston is such a good singer too. He can sing all of "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" and almost all of "I am a child of God." One of these days I will get a video of it and post it. Preston also loves to sing but does not quite remember all the words so we get a lot of LAA Laa's at the top of his lungs.
Boston can also count to about 13 or 14 and knows part of the ABC song when I sing it with him.
I just wanted to post these pictures since I don't have too many recent photos. This was on my birthday a couple weeks ago. I had such a great day and Gary spoiled me like he usually does.
Me and my little guys.

All my boys.

Potty Trained!!!


Well I finally did it. I originally posted clear back in March that I was going to start potty training the boys. Well I ended up putting it off (like I do most things). Our garage was smelling so bad though so a few weeks ago I decided I would just do it. Thanks to Annie and Susanna for the 3 day training method. It worked amazingly. Let me tell you though the first couple of days were brutal. I did not think it was going to work and was about to give up. But I persevered and it worked. So far we have not used a single Pull UP, that might change if we ever take a long trip in the car. Preston is doing the best out of the two but Boston does pretty good himself. Every now and then if I am not paying attention Boston will not tell me that he needs to go and will go in his pants. Preston however makes such a big deal about it. He runs out from wherever he is and yells "Gotta go pee pee." I have had a lot of people that are surprised that I did it so early for boys, and I am actually quite surprised with myself, but I am so glad that it is done. No more smelly diapers. Hooray!
