Proud Moments

A couple of weeks ago, the kids attended a birthday party for one of Lucas's friends. The party was at a local YMCA that had a huge climber that reached the ceiling (gymnasium height ceiling) and took up the entire wall. Megan is good at climbing, but can't always keep up. As mommy was being lazy and didn't really want to go in the climber, she asked Lucas to try to keep an eye on Megan and help her out if she had any issues. Lucas did an awesome job! If Megan got too far behind, he either waited for her to catch up or went back to see where she might have gotten stuck. When mommy told him how proud she was of what a good big brother he was, his only response was "I knoooow" (with the "quit telling me" attitude attached to it, though he did smile).

And for a proud Megan moment ... Our little girl has been doing a fantastic job with potty training. She hasn't worn a diaper or a pull-up (and yes!, those are two totally different things) at school since the end of January. On weekends Megan still wears a pull-up (it's easier to clean up :), but rarely uses it. She doesn't like to be told to go potty, but is getting pretty good about telling us when she needs to go.
