Two peas in a pod....

Kailey and Buddy are potty training. It's nice because when we all get together, if Kailey has to go in the "Big girl potty", then Buddy wants to too, and vice versa. They are both encouraging each other to go potty,a nd don't even know it. It works out great because we can tell Kailey to go Potty like Buddy and she'll do it. She'll do anything that Buddy does. They are two peas in a pod! Last night they decided to wear their underwear as hats. They ran around the house naked with their "Hats" on. It was pretty entertaining.

They had fun together riding the bike. Kailey hitched a ride on the back and let Buddy do all of the work. It's a good thing Buddy has so much energy.

We finally got them to sit down for 1 second (literally) together and SMILE.

Happy Birthday and Pooping Moolah!

About a week ago we celebrated Trevor's birthday. Trevor's parents came down and we had some friends over. Buddy is quite the entertainer and was showing us all how he "Poops Moolah". He takes some change and then grunts and drops the change from his behind to the floor. Then he laughs and laughs. Well he was teaching Kailey how to "poop moolah". So she had a penny and Buddy had a nickel and they were laughing and dropping the change constantly. After a while, we weren't as amused as at first so Trev and I started talking with Nate and Denise. The kido's disappeared and were playing on the stairs with their "Moolah". Next thing we hear is Kailey choking. We run over to her and try to get the PENNY out of her mouth, but she ended up swallowing it. She acted normal and wasn't coughing or anything, but we were still concerned. We called the doctor on call (keep in mind this is at 10:00 p.m.) to see what to do. He told us to just watch her and if it doesn't pass in the next 3 or so days to bring her in for an x-ray. I did some researching online and saw that lots of kids have swallowed money before and it will eventually pass. No big deal, right? But you forget what you have to do in the process....Search for the Penny. Let me tell you, this was fun! I just love sticking a plastic fork in a poopy diaper and digging around. As if changing a diaper isn't enough, now we have to thumb through it. Gross! 3 days came and went. No Penny. We called her pediatrician to see if we should bring her in and he said if she is still having bowel movements and acting normal, then it will eventually pass, but it may take a few weeks. How can something stay inside you for a FEW WEEKS? Are you kidding? So we just kept scrounging through her poop.

Finally TODAY, 10 days later, guess what, we found.....THE PENNY! It was very noticeable when it came out, Trevor didn't have to examine the specimen to find it. And I will spare you the picture. Trevor had to take a picture "for her scrapbook". Like I'm going to scrapbook a picture of THAT! Kailey really did "Poop Moolah" Literally! What a week. I hope we don't have to do any searching ever again!














Trev's birthday was fun! We enjoyed going out to dinner and being with friends and family. Trevor we love you and are so grateful for you and all that you do for us. We hope you had a great day!
