Lots to talk about...

It's only been a few days, but there have been so many new developments...where to start? Well it's not exciting for most, but it was a highlight for us. Greyson actually pooped on the potty....albeit accidentally, but we're still counting it!

Greyson: I go peepee on the potty, Mommy (grunting while sitting on the potty so he can get more candy)
Mommy: Ok....
Greyson: I did it....I did it!
Mommy: (checks potty for proof only to see a small little green turd) Yay! You pooped in the potty you big boy!
Greyson: I not poop in the potty, Mommy. That green....poop brown. That not poop.
Mommy: Greyson....poop can be different colors. You did poop in the potty!
Greyson: Yay! I poop in the potty.

Our potty trials and tribulations continue. He is doing better at peeing in the potty. Now, he will go about 3 or 4 different times a day...we are by no means done with the diaper, but it's a step in the right direction. Go Greyson!

I also had a chance to meet up with one of my oldest friends, Carolina Merino on Thursday. We had such a great time....it had been far too long! We will not wait that long to talk again! The best part of the night was the old guy with a highlighted shoulder length mullet checking us out...he was super hot!
Hannah has been pulling out all the stops...she officially has her first tooth. It's the front upper right one, and she looks adorable. It will be followed closely by the upper left, and she looks so cute when she smiles her gummy (well...now semi-toothy) smile!

When I went in to get Greyson the other day in the morning, he wanted me to lie down again on the bed (this is becoming a new routine for us). He proceeded to get down....

Greyson: (gathering up trains and cars in the room and laying them down on the bed next to me on their sides) The trains are tired Mommy...they go night night. Nigh-nigh trains. Sweet dreams

He's so clever! He never ceases to amaze me or surprise me.

We had the opportunity to go to our first kid Halloween party on Saturday, and it was a blast. It was unseasonable warm (big surprise here in TX) so it was great weather for outdoor fun. It was hosted by our Mommy group, and it was too cute. Greyson refused to put on his costume, and we decided it wasn't a battle worth fighting. Hannah loved wearing her bee costume, and she was a little social butterfly with her boyfriend (aka - PJ) and the other adorable babies. They drummed...
Greyson met Super Girl
Hannah rolled around with some of the other babies...
Definitely the cutest bugs I've ever seen....Pierce was just enjoying the view :-)
We left the Halloween party to go to a special birthday celebration for Toby! It was so much fun with the kids together (both the little ones and we big ones). Hannah was showing Uncle Trevor some of her walking tricks...
They did some serious dancing.....boom boom boom!
Trevor was being tackled by the boys...
Hannah was getting her groove on......drop it like it's hot!
Then...we couldn't find the boys. They weren't in the living room, they weren't in the kitchen, we couldn't see them in Cody's room. Where did we find them....
They were in Cody's bed camoflaged by the blanket that was hanging over the side. Greyson kept saying it's time to go night night, and Cody would act like he was snoring. It was hilarious! They were trying to act like they were sleeping, but it was pretty hard for them to stop smiling.
The live band...we pretty lucky to even book them for such a small gathering, but we're VIP....what can we say!
Hannah even sat in for the drummer for a few songs...she's a natural!
We went to another special birthday on Sunday for Avery's 2nd birthday! We had a great time....
What a fun and busy weekend! Can't wait to start another fabulous week together...lots of fun things planned so we'll see how it goes!
