Spring Break is Here!

-
Yeah! I am officially on spring break for this week! On Friday we headed to Kalahari to stay. We spent Friday and Saturday night there. Carter and Landon loved it! They were like little fish! Carter had to wear a life jacket while he was in the kids play area and I was worried that would cause a meltdown but not one evolved. He would climb up the stairs to the slides and go down saying "Wheeee"It was too cute. Both boys were wide awake on Saturday morning around 4:30am so Carter and I went for a walk through the halls and arcade of the hotel. My favorite part with the boys was the lazy river. They both were so relaxed and enjoyed just chilling in the raft with us. My parents came up on Friday and Bob's family came on Saturday so we had a blast with the family. On Sunday we had everything packed in the car except just the bare minimum for after the waterpark. Wouldn't you know it...Carter fills his swimmy diaper. Bob had just left for the car to get Landon's lunch and he didn't take his phone with him. I had told Bob that I was smelling poo but I thought that the life jacket Carter was wearing had poo on it...well it did however it was Carter's. Carter's dry skin is so itchy so I was rubbing lotion on it when I realized that not only was rubbing lotion on his back but also poo coming out the top of his diaper. I instantly grabbed the little bit of cash that I had and went to the gift shop where I purchased an extremely overpriced swimmy diaper and went to the locker room. I stripped him down and showered him off and then put the new diaper on. Boy, was Bob surprised to hear our story when he returned from the parking lot. After Kalahari, I headed down to Bucyrus with the boys and we are hanging out here for a few days and then onto Columbus to see the rest of the family. Stay tuned cuz I am sure there will be more stories.

No more diapers

It is official…the Boone family is diaper free!  After six long years of buying, changing, and disposing of dirty diapers we are finally done with those!  It is kinda crazy to think we don't have to carry a huge diaper bag full of diapers, wipes, rash cream, and extra clothes in case of a blow out. Around December Nolan began to be interested in the idea of going potty on the potty.  He would come into the bathroom to watch everyone and when the boys were going he would press his diaper against the toilet to pretend.  The whole potty training process can be quite exhausting so for him and my best interest we decided to wait until summertime.  He was very quick start going on the potty.  I have to say, ugh how I hate the potty seat.  It is just the most disgusting thing ever!  I tried to get him to use the big potty with a seat insert but he was scared since it was so tall.   He looks like such a big boy on the potty seat!

Nolan's First Bath and a Visit from Grandma and Grandpa Boone

On day 10 the best thing happened...Nolan's umbilical cord fell off.  I tell you what when that happens I get so excited because it is stinkin gross and I am always worried I am going to hurt him.  We found it in his diaper during a diaper change and Carter shouted, "Mommy Nolan's vilical cord came off!" I cracked up!  He knew that when that happened he now gets to take a bath in his big boy bath tub.  We quickly got out the tub and filled it with water.  The boys each grabbed a washcloth and helped to clean Nolan.  Nolan cried at first but as soon as Carter and Landon started to help he was calm as a cucumber.  They loved to squeeze the water on his body and wash his tummy. I gave Nolan a bath a few days later by myself and he screamed the whole time at the top of his lungs.  From that day forward I am sure the boys have to help me give him bath to keep him calm. Last week Bob's dad Arlin and Barb stopped through on their way home ...

Changes are coming our way fast!  Having two in diapers is costly...believe me we have done it before and my wallet is still crying.  As we approach the birth of baby #3 getting Landon out of diapers became a top priority.  He was not really interested and almost kinda scared at first.  He could and would tell me as soon as he finished going potty in his diaper that he needed to be changed.  He was also waking up in the morning with a dry night time diaper.  This was a sign for me to start pushing him into big boy underpants.  I don't mess around with pull ups we just switch to underpants cold turkey and just carry quite a few change of clothes with us.  When he realized that he was wearing underpants just like Carter he was hooked.  It took about two weeks of hard core potty training but he is going on the potty like a champ.  Every time he goes on the potty we all celebrate and everyone gets a treat.  Carter is extremely excited a...
