Still counting...

Dane has still been dry every morning for 2 1/2 weeks. He has only had 2 accidents during the day when he was a bit busy playing, so I'm ready to declare victory in this battle (I think!). I got off early this afternoon, so we spent the afternoon outside. After we cut Dane's hair, we shot some baskets, played in the sandbox, rode trike, played on his teeter-totter, and rode around in his Hummer. Sounds like a lot, but it really doesn't take Dane long to do all of the above! He had to stop to give sister a kiss, pulling off her hood because he still loves the smell of her head!
Sweet little girl just watched all the action from her walker.
Sandbox time.
Big grins on the teeter-totter when Momma would rock him up high.
Driving the Hummer, but not really paying attention to the road. Guess we'll have to give him lessons about not kissing girls while driving before he gets his license! (I know the picture is a bit blurry, but too cute to not post- I was trying to back up far enough to get the picture while staying close enough to catch Nora in case she toppled!)
Brought the tools out for some "fixing."
Hugs for Teddy.
Loves all the finger food recently!!
Big grin. Still won't show us the teeth for a picture yet!
Standing up in the crib. She doesn't pull herself up yet, but she's learning to hold on to things to keep from falling when she stands. She likes to stand for a while, then she'll start fussing because she wants to sit down but doesn't know how to sit without falling yet. Looks like the crib mattress needs some lowering!
The other day, I had to put on these cute little scrubs that Nora got as a baby gift. She is almost too big for them, so I had to take a couple of pictures. All her stats are on the pocket.
Standing so big!
The girls all "scrubbed up" together.
These last three are random pictures taken on my phone over the past month. The cute bunny ears we bought Nora at Target a while back.
Every now and then while we're riding in the car, we hear Nora squealing in delight and hanging on for the ride!
Nora is happy to play with her pink spoon while the rest of us eat frozen yogurt at the great new yogurt bar near our house. It's self-serve and you pay by the ounce. At least 10 different flavors of yogurt and all the different toppings you can imagine. They have lots of fresh fruit- strawberries, raspberries, kiwi, blackberries, blueberries, pineapple. So yummy! (Recognize the shoes, Sarah S.?)

Grampy and Grammy will be here in less than two weeks to help celebrate Dane's 3rd birthday! We can't wait!

Grammy has one piece of advice....do not let Dane take lessons from Grampy as far as driving and kissing girls goes! ; )
