More Big Girl

Don put Megan on the potty chair before her bath tonight. There was a tinkle! We will spare you a picture of the end result, but we were pretty excited.

Big Girl

Megan has a new favorite hang out. I discovered her here this morning after she went MIA. She got her pajamas off by herself, and unrolled the toilet paper by herself.

Front Yard Fun

Had some fun in the front yard tonight. Eric mostly rode his bike and watched ants fleeing his reign of terror after destroying their hills, Jonathan played basketball, and Megan did it all, alternating back and forth to the brother that was pestering her the least.

Not much new to report. Here are some pictures of Megan finishing her brother's supper, her painting with water, and all 3 kids playing with those annoying party favors....
We are looking forward to the weekend and FOOTBALL!

Fall Fashion Show

Megan and Mommy played dress up today. I'm not sure who had more fun. She loves the camera, and loves twirling.

Zoo Party

We went to our cousin Carter's 6th birthday party at the zoo yesterday. It was a windy day, but we had a nice time. We rode the train, and visited the new Big Cat Complex. The highlight was the white tiger, that paced back and forth along the path of all the little children. All the kids loved it, except for Megan, who did not care to have the 500 # beast jump up and swat her face through the glass.

Trip to Minot

We spent the day in Minot visiting Grandma and Grandpa LaFleur. Mommy forgot the camera, so there are no pictures to post.

A few of the days highlights:

• Grandparents had cool monster truck toys waiting for the boys, and a flashlight toy and book for Megan.
• Grandma had Buster Bars in the freezer.
• Megan actually napped.
• We all had a good time

A few lowlights:

• Eric suffered a minor scalp laceration when Jonathan catapulted the previously mentioned monster truck over a ramp constructed by Daddy. The bleeding was minimal, and any scarring will be covered by hair. Mommy got a good cuddle with Eric because of this (the cuddle should be listed as highlight.)
  
• Eric suffered a bloody nose when Jonathan accidently collided with him while chasing a ball.

After the second incident involving blood loss, Eric did request we return to Mandan, perhaps feeling he was safer from injury while buckled in to his car seat than he was out in the open. It seemed like a good suggestion, and since it was close to 7 pm, we obliged.
