Silas now likes to pee standing up. We've had a few issues with this...mainly bad aim. Today he was very pleased with himself - and exclaimed: "hey, hey - look! I didn't pee back there (pointing to the back of the toilet seat) or on my fingers!"
That is one of my favorite comments! Congrats to Silas for peeing standing up!! I have to confess that Lil'Will has always peed standing up but I am now annoyed with myself due to all the extra clean up!
For our far away families to keep up with the gang, and so that I can look back at all the fun of life with 3 kids :) This is my rememberer. We are: Mason (20), Ella (12), Silas (9), Dad/Justin (old), Mom/Christa (older)
Words to Live by...
“The biggest mistake I made [as a parent] is the one that most of us make. . . . I did not live in the moment enough. This is particularly clear now that the moment is gone, captured only in photographs. There is one picture of [my three children] sitting in the grass on a quilt in the shadow of the swing set on a summer day, ages six, four, and one. And I wish I could remember what we ate, and what we talked about, and how they sounded, and how they looked when they slept that night. I wish I had not been in such a hurry to get on to the next thing: dinner, bath, book, bed. I wish I had treasured the doing a little more and the getting it done a little less” Anna Quindlen (Loud and Clear, 2004)
Mom of three, wife, sister, friend. Love being with family and friends, having a cup of coffee with sunrise and a glass of wine with sunset. Life is Good.

That is big deal for a little boy. Good for him at least he is trying not to make a mess.
Catching up on a few posts today. You made me laugh and you made me cry. Darn you! ;-)
Congrats to Silas!
A belated Happy Birthday to Ms. Ella!
Wow! They grow so fast.
Now that's a good day! :D
