we got a 5:40am wake up call from rex with a poop diaper! so by 5:45 the whole house was up! 

haven't lined up our entire squinkie collection in a while! 

being crazy

malloy's hair is getting so long! 

she loves hanging out with daddy, even if it's just sitting on his lap  while he does his work

trying out the big boy bed (he will get a bed, this is just temporary)

malloy was having a great time playing bedtime with rex. she was calling him her daughter. i asked her if he could be her son, because he's a boy. she asked rex, "do you want to be my son?" he replied "yeah. your sunshine!" with a big smile :)

rex put neal's shoes on his hands and said "i'm swimmin'!" then he "swam" over to his cup and tried to pick it up with the two shoes.

potty training went pretty well today! he had 4 accidents in the morning - the first one was because he didn't go that much when he woke up, the second and third were on neal's watch while i was at the gym, and the fourth one was because i got distracted and forgot to put him on the potty right at the 20 minute mark - woops! but after that he did great and was dry the rest of the day!! he even went poop on his own twice! hopefully that means no early morning wake up call tomorrow! 

we put rex's crib mattress on the floor tonight to see how he does with it. he did fine at grandma val and grandpa don's on his air mattress, so he should be ok. so far i've been in there three times - once because malloy and rex actually opened the door and were coming out, the second time because i could hear a lot of running around, and the third immediately after i had just shut the door because rex was already out of bed! they both had a stern talking to and it's been quiet since them. we'll see how it goes! 

random stories: rex had his turtle float on today and malloy had her monkey float on (who knows - they like to wear them around the house). he went over to malloy and said "they're best buddies" meaning the turtle and the monkey. he cracks me up! 

"hi hoooooooooooooo"

playing bedtime. rex said "i wanna tell pablo a secret" then whispered "i love you" in his ear. it was SO cute! so i had him do it again so i could have it on video :)
