We've been really trying to get Blake potty trained, but he has been very resistant and stubborn. Well, tonight he was in the bathtub and says, "Mama, I'm almost peeing!" So, I snatched him up and threw him on the potty and he started peeing after a little bit!!!! I was so excited!! So proud of him!!
A week or so ago, Blake had a not so good day at daycare. So, when we got home, I told Daddy to ask him what he did at daycare today...so he did...his response was, "It's a mystery!".

My BFF
Today, Blake was testing the limits all day long. As I was trying to keep my cool and not yell again...he says to me, "Mama, let's be Best Friends Forever...and ever!" My heart melted right then.
Easter Bunny is coming tonight...looking forward to tomorrow morning. We went to the Easter Candy Scramble at the school today, Blake loved it...he did pretty good gathering candy, I thought he would've been more timid, but not at all. :-)
Tom and I won our weight loss challenge against Jody and Brian. Tom lost 42 pounds and I lost about 21. Now...to keep going and lose 20 more.....

Fox, Medicine
So...we're sitting at the dinner table tonight chatting with Blake. He likes to assign animals to us...."Daddy...you're a cheetah!....I'm an elephant....Mama, you're a ....." "Fox?" I finish for him. He says, "No mama, you're a dog!" Nice.....
Blake had a bit of a cold over the weekend and rather enjoys taking his medicine. I gave him a spoonful of motrin, he barely has it swallowed and says, "Thanks mama, I feel better now."

Farts & Baby Sister
Last Friday, March 12th, Mom, Jody, Blake, Cora and I went out for fish. Mom and Jody were taking Cora home with them, and Blake and I were going to Tom's basketball game (district finals). So, we took Cora out of my car in her car seat, then took the base out to move it to mom's car. Blake asked where his baby sister was going, and I explained to him that she was going to Grandma's house so he and I could go to Daddy's basketball game. He bawled and bawled....tears flowing like crazy..."I want my baby sister....she's my baby sister..." he was SO upset, he literally cried HARD for about 15 minutes. We would be driving and he would start to settle down, then he'd look to his left where she usually sits and would just bust out crying again, realizing she wasn't there. So sweet....I guess they really haven't been separated before, so I guess we will know what to expect next time!!
Yesterday morning I was getting Blake dressed and I let out a "little" fart, I said "excuse me." Blake says, "momma, you need to cover your mouth!" Then he paused and thought for a minute, and said, "Ackshilly (actually).....you need to cover your bum!" he says, putting his hand on his butt!! What do you even say to that!?!? LOL!!
He has discovered his penis...he is definitely all boy...when he doesn't have his diaper on, whether we are changing his diaper or giving him a bath, his hand is on it ALL the time, it's ridiculous. Definitely a boy thing.
Cora rolled over for the first time from back to belly on Sunday, March 14th, at 4 months old. Can't believe she will be 5 months old tomorrow. :-( She needs to stay little!!
Tom had his vasectomy on February 19th....everything went well. No more babies for us. :-) Good thing we got two good ones!! Love them to pieces! :-)

Trip to the Dentist
Blake had his first visit to the dentist today. It was basically just a chance to get him used to the dentist. Dr. Gorringe...or "Dr. Orange" as Blake calls him, simply looked in at his teeth with his little mirror to see how things look. Fortunately..no cavities and everything looked good. Blake screamed and cried the whole time...Dr. Gorringe didn't really warm up to him as well as he could have before sticking his hand in his mouth. But the Diego toothbrush and camera that he picked out of the treasure chest, seemed to make it all worthwhile in the end. The real test will be in September when he goes for his first cleaning!
Cora has been eating baby food for a few weeks now. She has the appetite of her brother, that's for sure.

Peter
I'm falling behind, but I'm not surprised. I had about 6-7 photoshoots this month which has kept me busier than I really want to be! I love doing it, but my house is really suffering!
Trying to think of things from the last month...
The other day I was changing Cora's diaper, getting her ready for her bath. Blake was anxious, as always, to help me out. When I took off her diaper, Blake looks down, looks up at me with a puzzled look on his face and says, "Mama, where'd her peter go?" Too funny! Not sure where he got "peter" from, because we never have called it anything.
Last night we were sitting in the recliner, with our legs up, reading a story before bed. I put the foot rest down, not realizing Blake's legs were tucked underneath. He didn't get hurt, but let me know right away that his legs were stuck. I apologized and gave him a big hug. He looks at me and says, "it's ok mama...it was an accident." :-)
