Sad, but true

Just go ahead and pass the "Worst Mother of The Year" trophy my way (and it's only January!).

Liesl is a toilet drinker.

Whenever she gets the chance (if someone forgets to close the bathroom door) she is on that bowl of cool water like a dying man in the Mojave desert (or any dog tall enough to reach). Every time I hear a splish splash I find her happily scooping water into her mouth as fast as her naughty little hands can get it.

This time was a little different. Can you see what fell in?




It's time to buy a new pink binky.

And some toilet locks.

I have so much blogging to catch up on.....


Charlie's first day of Kindergarten.
Charlie's looses his first tooth.

Pumpkin Patch with Grandma and Grandpa.
Liesl's first step.
And another BIG surprise....

But first, Aaron and I are off to ARGENTINA (where he served his mission 11 years ago) for 10 days without any kids! A big thanks to Aunt Annie (or Nanny Annie as Charlie wants to call her) for coming all the way from Texas to babysit for us!

See ya later!!!
