Picture Day

Today was picture day at the daycare and apparently the children took that to mean that they needed to be extra difficult.

As soon as Cole saw the shirt that I was going to put on him he said, "Oh, no. Not THAT one." Then he saw the pants. "I not wear pants. I wear shorts. I wear my play clothes." By the way, I don't think I've ever referred to his clothes as "play clothes". I'm not sure where he got that. I did eventually get him into his clothes but he threw a major fit over it.

I got Rylie dressed and she looked adorable and off we went. I gave her a cup to drink on the way. When we got to daycare, I realized that instead of drinking it she decided that it would be much more fun to pour it down the front of her dress. (And it was a sippy cup, I just grabbed one of the ones that she's chewed on the top so much that it just pours out.) At least milk doesn't really stain and I knew that it wouldn't show in the picture *if* they would just wait until it dried.

Of course, the picture guy was set-up and ready to go when we got there even though he wasn't supposed to start for another half-hour. Pictures come back in 10 days. I guess I'll find out then if we just got pictures of a temper tantrum and a milk stain.

Pre-school!

Cole starts pre-school on September 1st! His daycare is a pre-school so no real change for him, but he is now considered a pre-school student. Now if we could just get this whole potty thing under control we'd be set.

Getting Started

Nick and I decided that we'd start a blog just for kid updates. The first update is not for anyone eating or with an easy to upset stomach.

We found out that when a 14 month old little girl eats an entire blue crayon that it causes explosive diarrhea with pretty little blue flecks in it. Yay fun.

In happier potty news, I left Cole naked all day and he didn't have a single accident the entire day. Apparently if there is no pants to pee in, then he will go to the potty. Now if he'll just learn to be potty trained while wearing clothes.
