mom: "don't eat the poo poo candy"

cody requested that title.  we have candy in a jar that mae gets to have when she goes poop on the potty.  hence the name poo poo candy.  i heard cody getting some the other day and i told him not to eat the poo poo candy.

i feel pretty confident saying this girl is for the most part potty trained.  and so, she was finally awarded the big prize that she helped me pick out at the beginning of this whole process...the minnie jet. it's actually pretty cute.  and what makes it even better is that it was on sale for $8 at walmart.  love me some walmart.

this kid. i never know what she is going to come down wearing.  she makes so many wardrobe changes in any given day.  the other day, she came down wearing izzy's headband.  it was so freakin tight on her head, she seriously could not move her eyebrows. 

 my string bean.  she loves to eat her toes, and has no problem getting them in her mouth because her legs are so long.  she's even choked herself on them.  she's still my happy (for the most part), smiley baby.  she's actually been great when we go to the pool or park.  she'll play for a little while and then conk out.  she eats like a champ, two solid meals a day.  and three (sometimes four) bottles.  it's hard to keep all these tall people in my house fed!

summer is fun with kiddles.  it's fun to relive all the things you used to do as a kid with your own kids.  mae's favorite treat this summer is popsicles, which i only let her eat outside, pretty much just in her undies because she is ridiculously messy when she eats them.  but, that's part of the fun right?

i watched my friend's kids the other day, so we got out the slip n slide while they were here.  they had a blast.  
 izzy and i had a great time just watching them.  i'm so glad that one, mae has some good friends, she has learned a lot from being around other kiddos. and two, that i like their moms because it's more fun for me!
 mae got a little more adventurous this time!

we had a baby shower for my friend the other day, and i made cupcakes to bring.  this girl wants to be part of everything in the kitchen, so i let her help me.  and of course we had to taste test!

still hasn't really felt like summer...and it's already half over!!  but, we've been having fun.  i'm already wondering what the heck i'm going to do with my kids when the pool closes!
