'Round Here


We are in Hawkeye land. The girls hear about the Hawkeyes at school and our neighbor has a big camper that he takes to every home game. He also has a Hawkeye statue in front of his office in town. Every now and then the girls will talk about the Hawkeyes. Campbell kept talking about "hot guys" and I could not for the life of me figure out who she was talking about. Then I asked her if she meant the Hawkeyes, and she said yeah, the hot guys. So funny!

Taite is potty trained! And Cars underwear is what she wanted. So, she would have them, if it will get us out of diapers! We also had to make a trip to the store with all the girls in p.j.'s because I had promised Taite a toy if she went poo poo on the potty, we had a little set back with that one, and she decided to do her business right before bed time. We are so excited to be done with diapers F-O-R-E-V-E-R!!!!

James got bangs. It was so cute, when Maegan cut them she had brushed the rest of her hair back to keep it out of the way. After the initial big bang cut Maegan asked if it looked good. James went and looked in the mirror and said "I think I take it back, I don't want bangs." Whoops! I asked her why and she said that her hair looks really puffy. Maegan explained that her hair is just brushed back and that is not part of the bangs hairdo. After Maegan brushed the long hair back in place then James was happy with her new bangs.

Someone mentioned the other day while we were at school that they love the "steps". I do too! The girls were following me the other day and I felt like a mother duck with my ducklings all in a row. They are the greatest girls!
