fun times

the kids had morning program this morning and usually i go to it, but it was for the hall of fame awards. this is a very crowded one because all of the families of the kids who are getting awards are there. i told the kids that i wasn't going to go because it's crowded and i didn't want to take a spot from someone else. they were both fine with it. at the end of the program, any kid can get up and introduce family members who came that morning. a while later, a parent from school who was at the awards ceremony told me that rex got up and said into the microphone "i'd introduce my mom, but she's at home." ha! thanks rex! 

we played some minute to win it games after school on tuesday. malloy loved it, rex had more fun making pirate faces with his sticker book. he jumped in once i put shaving cream on a shower cap and stuck it on my head! 

 playing with minecraft magnets!

 rex has been dry for the past 3 nights in a row and is even waking up in the middle of the night to go pee on his own! this is very exciting!!! also, this morning, he went upstairs on his own a few times. he's NEVER been able to go upstairs alone. this is huge progress!!! i don't know if it's because we're being more strict with his behavior, limiting tv/electronic time, increasing activity levels, and having him fall asleep on his own but something's working!!! hooray!!! there's some normalcy returning to our lives!

this afternoon we walked home from school since it was a sunny afternoon!
