Last Day of Break

Today was the last day of winter vacation. Charlotte is so excited to go back to school! We spent of the day picking up and organizing again. The kids did everything in their power to make messes faster than we could clean up!

Charlotte and Caroline have really been playing nicely together lately. Charlotte still thinks she is in charge, which sometimes is a problem, but usually Caroline is happy to let her boss her around. 

Killian is mostly concerned with unplugging things, pressing buttons and destroying anything in his path. He is relentless when it comes to turning off the space heater. The basement playroom isn't heated so it is sort of nice to have it on. He doesn't think so.

He likes putting anything he finds around his neck too. Usually some sort of article of clothing. This time it was the stethoscope, a good choice. He then tried to use the trapeze bar like his sisters.

He also loves playing ball with Baylie. He ran out of hands for the balls and clearly wanted his train also, so he shoved that in his mouth. He's a thinker!

The kids (or dad) picked up so the jumpy could be blown up. Then fun was had by all until dinner was ready.

After dinner it's bath time, Killian is usually first in since he throws his Popsicle on the floor and is usually covered in food. He has a history of going to the bathroom in the tub so as soon as Chris heard a little toot he pulled him out. Killian loves the little potty and sat down on it tonight and went both #1 and #2! I was shocked, but then remembered Caroline knew what to do on the potty at about 14 months. (Killian is 16 months today!)

The only problem with Killian on the potty is that he wants to play in whatever is in the potty while he sits there. He also likes to put his toothbrush in it. Ah, the differences between boys and girls!

We had a great break but are looking forward to getting back into the swing of things tomorrow!
