Potty Training
These past few weeks I have been Potty Training Gideon! That has been a very exciting chore! I was just starting to think that my efforts were not doing any good when I found Gideon in the bathroom with his bears sitting on the toilet! Here is the story.. Every time that I asked Gideon where the potty goes he would say in the toilet upstairs. He would even say, "Mama Potty" when I would ask him, "What do you say when you need to go potty?" The only problem is, he does not tell me that he needs to go to the potty until after he has wet his pants. Gideon will come up to me and say, "Uh-oh Big No No, Pants wet!" Oh the challenges of being a mother! Then a few changes started happening. Gideon one day actually told me that he needed to go to the potty, but I was busy feeding Jeremiah, so I told Gideon to run to the potty and go. He did and when I put Jeremiah down and went to the bathroom, there was Gideon with a big grin on his face and squirting the wall across from the potty! A few days later, Gideon said that he needed to go poop. I took him into the bathroom and he went. About 30 min. later when we were in his room playing, he all of a sudden said, "Mama, Bear poop!" and he grabs his bear and takes the bear into the bathroom to sit on the potty. Gideon then stayed in the bathroom and taught his bears how to go potty! I am glad that my efforts are paying off and that Gideon now thinks that it is fun to go potty and to teach his bears to go as well!
Laughing
In all of these pictures, Jeremiah was laughing at Gideon! I guess he thinks that he has a pretty funny big brother!

Congrats Ammon!
This last summer, Ammon attended the Wood Badge Course for the Boy's Scouts of America. He finished the requirements for this course and received a certificate and was beaded on Sunday. The beads that he received were two logs on a leather string. I am so proud of him and he is doing such a great job working with the boys in the troop here in Cheney! Way to go Ammon!
Getting Excited about Toys
Jeremiah was playing with the little lamb, but then fell asleep and it was so cute, I couldn't pass it up! Jeremiah also loves to watch the shadows on the wall as he swings! Jeremiah was excited about seeing himself in the mirror that hangs above him on his swing! Isn't that the best smile!
New way of Playing with Trains
I came down the stairs this morning and saw that Gideon wanted to have his animals watch his trains going by or try to stop the trains from getting by! What a cute little kid! What a great imagination!

Bedtime?
So I think that one of my boys listens to me when I say that it is bedtime! Can you guess which one it is?
Smile!
I finally caught some of Jeremiah's smiles on camera! He is such a little tease! He always smiles when I do not have the camera, but then as soon as I have the camera he gives me the look, "what! You think you are going to get me to smile! Whatever Mom!"
Funny Faces
Here are some really cute and funny faces! I was trying to catch the cute smiles that he was giving me before I got the camera! Maybe I can catch the smiles later!

Luke Skywalker?
I put Jeremiah in this cute outfit, but it was so big that the hat fell on his head and made him look like Luke Skywalker or at least like a Jedi Knight!
