It's a Pug if you couldn't tell.

Potty Time!

We have been trying to get Maddie to finish potty training for quite a while now. A few weeks ago Smiths Marketplace had their Princess dolls on sale for $5 each and Maddie wanted all of them so badly. So I came up with the idea of her earning beans each time she went potty and then when she reached one of her goals (lines) she would get one of the dolls. So far she has earned her first doll (Little Mermaid bath doll) and has been doing really well ever since. Next she will earn Charlotte (from Princess and the Frog) and then Tiana. She is now in her new Princess and the Frog underwear and is doing really well. It took us a while to decide how many beans she gets each time, but have finally decided on 5 because the other amounts got her to her first goal too quickly. Hopefully by the time the jar is full she will be fully potty trained. Only having one in diapers will be so nice. YEA!!

Easter

This year we had a very laid back Easter. With it also being Conference and yucky weather we didn't do too much, but it was still fun. The Easter Bunny decided to hide the baskets in the laundry room on the dryer (it took the kids a while to find them). He spoiled them rotten and game them more toys than candy. The snow melted enough so that later in the day we were able to have our annual hunt at Grandma and Grandpa Moss' house. The kids got lots of candy and still have yet to eat very much of it.

Isaac's birthday

Isaac is now 6 (actually he turned 6 almost a month ago). He decided to have a Lego party that actually turned out to be a lot of fun. Here are a few pictures from that day. On his actual birthday he got to open his family presents and was excited to find that he got a new two wheel scooter (he had been complaining about his 3 wheel being for babies for a long time).
