Spring Update

Yes, yes, it has been way too long since I last posted. Oftentimes, I have to decide between sleep/schoolwork/a glass of wine and posting and I most often choose any of the former. I'm sorry. There are probably less than ten people that regularly read this, anyways.

It has been a busy spring. Chris and Scottie (my father-in-law) have been working tirelessly every weekend on our roof. In a couple of weeks, we will have a brand new one! We are really excited to be embarking on our first big home improvement.

I am trying to finish up my first year of nursing school. In about a month, I will be a real LPN. Now, I just need to find a job! Fast!

Miles has been having a lot of fun this spring! He really enjoyed St. Patrick's Day as well as Easter; he loves any excuse to celebrate. He has also been sleeping in his "big boy bed" religiously for the last two months and we are so proud of him. Now we are trying to tackle potty training. He is doing a pretty good job, but sometimes, when he's really into playing or something on TV, he can't be bothered with taking time out to sit on the toilet. We'll just keep plugging away...

One of Miles's favorite new things are Transformers. We are not sure how he found out about them, but he is OBSESSED. He thinks that everything in the house is a Transformer and particularly likes to play with all of our kitchen gadgets. Here is a video of him playing with the "Transformers":



Here are some of the other highlights...


Enjoying his first chocolate bunny:

Dance Machine at Tara and Dan's Wedding. He did this crazy move where he started in "downward dog" but kept a leg pumping in the air then went to a forward roll and ended in the center splits. Hmmmm...:

Coloring Easter Eggs. Miles ate a tablet of pink dye (he thought it was candy, of course). Strangely enough, he never had any pink poop:
St. Patty's Day Fun. Mint chip ice cream cones with the gang:

Any advice for switching to a big boy bed?! We're making the change tonight. Crossing my fingers...be persistant with the potty training. Isaac's reward was putting money in his piggy bank!
