February 2011

February dumped tons of snow on us....and then we ended it by going to KeyLime Cove with the Pierces. The boys had a wonderful time! They are still a bit hesitant of the water...but like the kiddie pools that are 2 feet or less and the water slides.

Blizzard of 2011

Unfortunately...our parents are out of town so they are not able to experience this storm first hand (lucky them). Here are some pictures taken at around 8:30 a.m. on Feb 2, 2011.

Here is an update at 11:30 a.m. Now the work begins!

Snow drift on the side of our garage.

Not too much of a drift in our driveway so you can see how much actual snow fell by looking at the basketball pole.

It was a "sight to see" this morning at 6:30 when I tried to let the dogs out of all three doors and was greeted with this scene.

Ryan stomping the snow.

Kyle using the snow drift as a slide. WEEE

Boys trying to climb the drift.

Ryan really wanted to get "up" on top of the snow. Once he did...he wasn't to happy with the results.

Both boys ready to help Daddy shovel.

Toy Story on Ice

The boys had a great time with the whole Pierce clan on Saturday. Both were mesmerized by the "real" Buzz, Woody, and Jessie! Yes...Jessie. We even bought a snow cone that was served in a JESSIE cup. They love her hair. The toy of choice was Buzz"s lazer gun. It is pretty harmless...and it is neat to see them pretending to be Buzz.

It's Potty Time!

The last poopy party under the dining room table!

Boys in their big boy undies! Buzz, Woody, and Cars seem to be the most popular.

New Years seemed like the perfect time to start officially potty training! The boys have been very successful with this process so fast. Monday-Wed, they were told it was "Potty TIme" every 30 minutes. Trying recieved a high five, alligator clap, rainbow of wows, etc. If they successfully went in the toilet a smarty or sucker was given! I know...I know...a little bribery doesn't hurt. By Thursday, the boys were holding it for 1-2 hours and telling me when they had to go to the potty. Accidents have been limited to 0-1 per day! We will see how things go this weekend while we are running to the chiropractor, gym class, stores, etc.

Christmas on New Years!

The boys had a great time at Grandma and Grandpa's opening Xmas presents for the third Saturday in a row. Kyle loves to show his excitement toward gifts! He was screaming "Woody...Buzz" for the landfill, comforter, movies, and shake n go toys. The hit for Ryan was the football outfit (including the helmet) that Auntie Kate bought for him!
