Happy St. Patrick's Day!

We had a pretty uneventful St. Patrick's Day, but the kids looked cute. Everyone loved Tessa's shamrock dress....thanks Ma!

We had a St. Patrick's Day party on Saturday with the Richards and it was fun! Lots of good food and good company!

Adam

Our little boy cracks us up! His new favorite is the book "Where The Wild Things Are" and we read it at least twice a day and he has it memorized. At night before he goes to bed he likes to dress up as Max-King of the Wild Things! (Yes, that is one of my wooden spoons.) I love his imagination! His other big news is....he is potty trained!!! I put it off for so long because I thought it was going to be such an ordeal, but he took to it right away and he is so proud to be a true big boy! Last night he talked to his Uncle Ben in Chicago who he never gets to talk to on the phone and here is how Adam greeted Ben on the phone-"Hi Ben! I go poo poo on the big boy potty!!" Luckily Uncle Ben thought it was funny and wanted to know if that is how he is beginning all of his conversations these days. We are proud of our big boy too!!
