Quadruplets with Cotton Tails

April 16th, 2010

A bunny rabbit gave birth to quadruplets in our yard. 4 little furry bunnies nestled into the grass. How cute is that?   There must be something in the water. What signs of spring do you have in your own yard?

Fun for a Buck: Painting With Water

April 13th, 2010

There were so many great ideas shared in my last “Fun for a Buck” post that I couldn’t wait to try out, including “painting” with water.  So far we’ve painted the sidewalk, the rocks, and the van wheels. =) Just grab some cheap paintbrushes or sponges and a container for the water and let them …

The Potty Training Quadruplets Video Diaries: Part II

April 12th, 2010

I’d planned on blogging our progress on potty training as it unfolded, but by the end of the day I’ve been completely “wiped out”. Teaching 4 BOYS to use the potty has been no small task. This transition has tested our patience and worn us out in a way that we haven’t experienced since the …

April 5th, 2010

Easter Clothes. Easter Breakfast. Easter Service. Easter Travels. Easter Mexican Lunch. Easter Family Time. Easter Bubbles. Easter Treats. Easter Egg Dying. (All while potty training, I might add.) Making progress every day… (but I’m too “drained” to write about it right now). Plus I need to conserve any energy I have left to cheer for …

My 4 and The Final 4

April 2nd, 2010

We packed up the potty chairs and joined 30,000 Butler Fans today (Bandwagon or not, we love ya!) for a FREE Final Four Event at Lucas Oil Stadium. I was a little click happy and took over 100 pictures. Love that my boys got to experience a little taste of the Final Four atmosphere. More …

Aruba in April

April 1st, 2010

Greetings from the white beaches of Aruba!   After 2 days of exhausting all-out potty training with the quads, Brad and I were completely THROUGH!  We turned our boys over to the Potty Whisperer Service and set out for a relaxing tropical retreat!  Although, we miss the boys tremendously; they are in wonderful hands, and our …
