Brady is a HUGE ketchup fan! It's funny....we have this Mickey Mouse plate with separate parts for the "ears" (I think Michelle has this plate too - I've seen it on her blog!) and whenever I put ANY food on the plate, he wants to dunk it in the ear I put the ketchup in when he has chicken nuggets. The other day he was eating his grilled cheese and pretend-dunking into the ear (even though there was no ketchup in it) before EVERY bite. It was really funny!!

Finally I just put ketchup in the ear for him...he thought it was fantastic!!!
I am sooooooooooo congested these past few days. I can't tell if it's allergies or a cold. Either way it sucks!!
quote]hope you are feeling better Kelly! i know that plate- i love it. Will won't try ketchup yet- he isn't interested! lol
i was hoping that everyone could give me some ideas for what to do for easter. we are planning on having the nieces and nephews over for easter and doing a big easter egg hunt for them. they range in age from 10 months old to 7 years old. what kind of things should i put in the eggs that would be good for everyone?
stickers, sweettarts (Will love them), little race cars etc. It's hard to find good stuff for the little ones that isn't dangerous or too small.
Hello ladies!
the last half of last week was TERRIBLE!! Zoe had a ear infection and sore throat, so we got her Antibiotics and was pushing fliuds, etc. Thursday, she basically refused to eat and had an upset tummy...I swear I changed like 15 diapers on her that day.

At least she managed to stay hydrated. Friday, a little better, and by saturday night we did great. I got a haircut and we wnt to dinner..my children love seafood, and they both decided that they like ketchup now. I swear Zoe ate almost a whole decent size piece of fish herself! They at shrimp and sam even enjoyed a scallop! So alls well that ends well I guess....
ouch- hope you guys are feeling better! too cute on the seafood!
Kara - Those pictures are beautiful! He's getting sooo big!!

I need to take a break from my TTC boards. I am going nuts. I started getting super faint lines on tests yesterday afternoon
Christina- that is awesome- so the new siggie- congrats!!!!

can't wait to hear all the updates on baby #2!!!!!!!!!

We spent yesterday at AK and DTD. It rained in the morning so by the time we got there, all the people had left. We tried FOTLK again and Spencer LOVED it!
what cute pics- looks like he had a great time at FOTLK!!
DMickey - I think I see lines, I hope they get darker soon!

We still haven't taken Alex for his 2 year portraits yet. I took him for his haircut last weekend, and I don't want it to look too freshly cut, know what I mean?
We also didn't have any luck with the last 2 sessions at 1 year and 6 months because he was so mobile, we couldn't keep him still long enough to get a decent picture!

But now sometimes when I get out the camera at home to take his picture, he stops what he's doing, looks at the camera and says "cheese" so I'm hoping we may have better luck.
I'm also not sure where to take him since we moved. There are all of the same chains out here, but I'm not sure I really loved where we took him before, so I'm thinking of switching it up. Does anyone have a favorite chain, or do you mostly use local photographers?
we used portrait innovations and i liked them the first time, then second time was bad. it depends on the person you get really, i guess. His day care has a photographer come in that does an AWESOME job, so we haev been ordering those. he comes in about twice a year. Will is always smiling and i don't even have to be there for it!
Hey Ladies!
I'm trying to remember the last time I was on and posting and I think it was about 3982149783274983208392 pages ago on this thread!! It's good to seem some familiar "faces" still here though!
Things have been crazy busy the last few months. In December, we went to WDW with my parents -- it was Colin's 3 trip already! We're currently going through withdrawal and are very seriously considering a trip in September for free dining!
I also had my gallbladder out (a nice little side effect of having children! My mom was the same after my sister) 2 days before the New Year (didn't have any plans so thought it would be a good time for emergency surgery!).
Colin is nearly 21 months old already and I'm not sure where it's all gone -- he's starting to talk up a storm, and such a little character. In the last week or so, he's added "I love you" to his repetoire, which just about melts my heart every single time! I *heart* him! We're starting to think about #2, which is exciting and incredibly scary at the same time -- I thought the decision to start trying for #2 would be tons easier than #1, but I'm not finding it that way at all!
Hope you guys have been keeping well! I've missed you!
welcome back! Glad Colin is doing well- sorry about hte gallbladder, what a mess.
well not much going on here- just working as usual! Will is adjusting to his new class at day care and seems to like it- it is even more structured in the 18m-2y class. They sit in a circle and do different music, math, crafts etc. I think he is going to learn a lot. We lucked out finding a good place (montesorri).
Denise- did you start the new job? i've been thinking of you!
Nicole- you are right- Christina is the start of the TTC#2!!! you're next?


I might bring up the subject with DH after our DEC trip. see how open he is then.



He LOVES William, so i know he would like another. I just see his eyes light up everytime Will does smoething new.
