Much, Much better!

It's amazing what a little sleep will do for an entire family! I literally have had 10 hours sleep since Saturday. By yesterday I was so exhausted I couldn't think straight! But last night Grace slept through the whole night and Max was only up 3 times, for just a few minutes each time. It felt wonderful!!!

And they are all smiles today - smiles with runny noses, but we can handle that!

So, here are some pictures and funnies from this week...

We are trying to teach Grace some needed information - this is an actual conversation -
"What is daddy's name?" "Mike."
"What is mommy's name?" "Mommyca."
"Where do you live?" "With the ducky's." "No you live in Layton, can you say Layton?" "Layon." (Notice no T sound.)
"Where do you live Grace?" "With the ducky's Mommyca."

Last night she wanted out of bed around 9:30, she kept calling for "Mommyca." I think it is hillarious!

She also told me I had sprinkles on my arm - it took me a minute to understand she meant freckles, but it was cute! When she gives something to you sometimes she says, "Thank you, you're welcome." and then walks away... One of my favorite things she says is somewhere and something. When she doesn't know where something is, or exactly what something is, or she is too busy to be bothered by mom that is her response...

Grace is doing so well with potty training, and we have had several accident free days! She likes her bed for the most part. She will not fall asleep in it, but she does pretty well through the night now.

Max has started pulling himself up onto everything. As such Max has started falling on everything. He has bruises and scraps and to look at him one might think he was being abused. I was a bit worried taking him to the doctor yesterday - I guess most kids go through this - but oh boy - watch out! He thinks it's pretty cool when he stands up, and gives a killer smile!
