1-2-3-4

#1 - Daniel is now crawling hence the video at the bottom. He is getting faster everyday and it looks so darn cute, he especially loves to crawl to his mama!

#2 - Sarah is officially fully potty trained!!!! She was potty trained with #1 and at night time from the first week we started but #2 has always been an issue so we had pull-ups. We finally ran out and now she has no choice to go in the bathroom. THank Heavens!!!

#3 - I should have brought the camera with us Saturday. We took the kids roller skating for the first time. Megan and Joseph were a bit nervous and they were all excited. Sarah did great, it was like walking for her, I don't think she fell once! Joseph and Megan were getting good at the end but it will take a couple more times of going for them to really get used to it. They still had to have me or Brent to hold onto when they wanted to go out on the wood floor, on the carpet they did great. There was no way Brent and I were going to put on skates!

#4 - Enough with this snow already!! We have had sooo much snow it is ridiculous, good thing kids don't care as much about the snow as us adults, because they love to go out and play in it. The 3 of them went out and played for almost 2 hours last week, when it was warm enough! It has been fun for them, not for us!

#5 - Daniel is FInALLY sleeping through the night! I have not been one of those lucky mothers to have a baby sleep all night until they are 8-12 months. I don't mind getting up in the middle of the night and feeding them and having that precious cuddle and bonding time but around 7 months I am done! Finally physically exhausted so, I let Daniel cry the other night for about 30-40 minutes then remembered that his crib was still high enough that if he stood up he could go over the side, so after hearing him keep hitting the crib, I went in there and put his paci back in, held him for about 10 minutes and he was out. Every since then he has slept from about 10-11 to 8-9. I am giving myself this week to sleep until I have to get up and then next week I will be getting up early and exercising. Exciting huh?!?!?! (actually I am excited!)

#6 - I am also just about done nursering. Since he loves the bottle lots me than me and keeps biting me, I am down to 2-3 times a day for a couple minutes, pretty soon it will be once then I will be done. Kind of Bittersweet.....

These are some pictures of them playing outside

Notice the snow bank taller than Sarah?!

So fun! Poor Sam hasn't had a chance to play in the snow at all this year. FIrst it was too cold, now all of the snow is gone. I'm not complaining, but I think I'd rather see white than all of the yucky, brown grass! Yay for Daniel sleeping through the night! I am still trying to get Mateo to do that... I don't know what's wrong with me!

Awwww....What a doll and I love his crawl! Congrats on the potty training. It feels so good to me when I get that done...so it makes me happy to hear of your success. The snow looks awesome but it looks soooooo cold! I miss Iowa and how pretty everything looks with the snow. (even with the muddy snowdrifts. not really, though;)
