Week in review...

Wow this week flew by! Probably b/c I am super busy at work but that should mellow out next week. We have a lot going on but it keeps the brain young.

Wesley is still going strong with his potty training. He's doing really really good. Still a long way to go but he's so excited about the potty.

Kate is getting so sharp with all the new stuff she's learning. She knows all her 'popcorn' words like 'the', 'go', 'and', 'it'......and she can read short sentences. She loves bringing us the Dick and Jane books and reading a few pages. It's amazing to watch how their little brains are like sponges and just take in what ever you give them. I hope her love of learning continues to thrive as she gets older.

Earlier this week Justin brought home the 'bucket' truck...not his normal van.... and the kids were so jazzed and amazed with its huge size. (Just for the record, Kate become obsessed with bucket trucks after Hurricane IKE when we had to explain what all those trucks along the road were.....we told her they were going to fix our electricity (aka: make the lights work and water run so we can GO BACK HOME!!).

So dad let them play in the bucket. He offered to let Kate sit in the bucket and take it high in the sky but she opted to stay at eye level. She said she didn't want to be a bird just yet.
