Natalie making her fasion statement
Painting with water Natalie is setting a fashion statement like no one else. I was folding and putting up laundry last week and twice, she got a hold of Carter's underwear and put them on over her clothes. The first time, he was a little upset, because they were his favorite Lighting McQueen underwear. However, the next time was just Nemo, so he let her wear them over her pants the entire day. I could care less, but Larry thought she needed to take them off before we left the house. Natalie did not agree and threw her new "almost two year" fit. Guess who won??? Of course, daddy gave in and I am sure it helped that we were just in the front yard playing and not going to the store or anything.
She has shown a little interest in the idea of potty training. I mean seriously, she is wanting to sit on the potty and can't even talk good yet! So far, she has not actually gone in the potty, but seems to like trying to be a big girl. I did go out and buy a potty seat, which might help. I will keep you posted on how it goes, once I get the nerve to actually put the potty seat on the toliet and make an effort.
Okay, all you mom's that need cheap entertainment for you kids, I've got it. I was talking with my mom and I remembered as a kid, she would give a paint brush and I would spend hours painting the edge the pool and deck with water. I tried it last weekend (picture above). The kids loved it! I got some cheap paint brushes and a bucket of water for each of them and the went to town. Carter had a blast! Natalie had more fun dipping the brush into the water and sucking the water off the end of the paint brush (gross, I know). Anway, fun ideas for summer.
Just a little update on the girls with e coli...Our friend's daughter, Jesse, who was a Children's in Dallas is doing much better. They are hoping to come home at the end of the week or first of next week. Her hemoglobin level is still low, but holding steady and not decreasing any. Please pray for that to get back to normal and for the entire family as they are split between Dallas and Amarillo. Coming from a person who has been there, it is so emotionally hard on you. Also, there are still three little girls here in Amarillo that are on dialysis trying to battle e coli. Please pray for them and their families as their little bodies try to fight off this horrible bacteria.
