I can barely buckle Lila's straps on her car seat so I have to move her out of the infant carrier already. sigh, no more hauling a sleeping baby around in the carrier! She definitely takes after Charlie in this department. Kadence rode in the carrier rear facing for 18months until the pediatrician finally said to just move her into a bigger seat!

This Week in Nelsonburg

The kids went to an ice skating birthday party and loooooved it! Charlie was begging me for a hockey stick! Needles to say he and Kadence start skating lessons on Saturday. I am so excited to watch them skate while me and Lila sit in the bleachers to watch. I am sooo hoping they take to it. There is really nothing cuter than watching Charlie try to skate! The instructor helped him out alot and after the skate lesson Charlie was not so brave and spent a few minutes clinging to the the wall and then came and hung out with me. Kadence did great too.

Here is Charlie hanging on the wall.

The kids doing stretches on the ice.

Kadence and I have started finding a salad dressing recipe and making 1 new dressing a week. It is super easy and yummy. Here she is holding our favorite one, creamy garlic dressing. It is really fun.

From the Nelson Household today.....

So this here is (finally, and I am knocking on wood right now)our mostly potty trained kid. We are going broke rewarding his #2 in the potty since each one apparently warrants a bath. Yesterday he got to have 4 baths and he always tells me to make sure they are "super hot". For the last 4 days he has been into this and only had 1 accident(at the park and not home near a toilet.) We have come along way from the kid that held in his poop for so long he was hospitalized. Yay, we were wondering it was ever going to happen!!!!!

Also, this little girl turned 4 months old today! She is super happy and easy almost all the time. Someone approached me at the park yesterday to say "Oh man, if I was holding that kid there is no way I could stop myself from biting those legs!" Apparently she doesn't know us well or she would know it is a favorite past time around here and we are like zombies who only munch on fat little human thighs (or hocks as I like to call them. )

Price Tag

Here is Charlie doing a performance for me of the song "Price Tag". (He learned from the Wii Dance game) Notice how he pretends to not notice the innocent baby at his feet and he tries to fall on her. He already knows how to make things "look" like an accident.

This is a picture of Kadence as a baby.....

This is Lila Beau! A slight resemblance I'd say!
