Tadpoles, tushies and tables

The kitchen table, everything gets dumped there. Ten tadpoles, big ones, little ones, along with swamp water and water fleas, and pregnant snails. More wild life than hubby wants, but tolerates it as long as he can ignore it. This is where Hannah comes in, she has climbed up on the table and played splish splash with the little tadpoles and snails more than once. Dear Sarah reminded me to say that. ;o) If you listen to the video you hear her singing in the background. Hannah joins in for a few notes, too.

As for tushies, that would be Hannah. She learned to climb out of her playpen a month or so after we brought it home for her. We were able to distract her from doing so for a year, but well we knew it wouldn't contain her for long. She started to climb up to the table then onto the table. Out of her highchair then into her highchair. After a while she hated being in the highchair so we switched her to a booster seat at the table. Well, after breakfast I assigned a little schoolwork, gave Hannah a paper to draw on. Well, they say a picture is worth a thousand words, right? You be the judge.

She continued to go back to that spot even after removing her several times. Had to distract her with something else while big brother, there, finished his work.

Hi, I don't know if anybody is reading this, but I just would just like to put a few thoughts down. My son has a song stuck in his head and has not stopped singing it. It's not even the whole song, just parts of it. It is so annoying, but we've all had that happen. Yelling for him to stop only makes him sing louder and longer. Ugh. Now are you wondering what the song is? Well, it is Spinning Wheel from Earth, Wind and Fire. Great song, but not when you hear it in bits and hums and or the same bit over and over and over and oh you get the picture. He likes to do the same with the Doctor Who and Quantum Leap theme songs. Then he mixes it up and puts in a blender and sings all of them in a mind blowing medley. He's doing it now. Whoo, he's going to a friends house for an hour. Now, I can hear the rain falling and it is so peaceful.

Chasing potty-A potty learning adventure

Well, all I can say is wow. My dear sweet babe woke up bone dry Today. I put her to bed at 8:30, she woke up at 6:30. Right now we are encouraging her to sit on her potty, but instead she is doing an interpretive dance routine that would amaze even Simon Cowell ;o). My older DO's are making a potty area in her playpen. My DS went and got a small tub of water to wash up in. All babe wants to do is take a bath with her duck. I put her in the warm water and about a minute later she peed. Oh, what fun!
