We Made it!
We spent a night and a Day in Yellowstone on a whirlwind guided tour of the park by a local Expert. Now he goes by the name of Pop Pop. We had a blast and all the information he spouted out as the geyser of knowledge. It is still swimming around in my brain. Yellowstone pretty much is our backyard. We plan to return for day hikes and some overnights.
What are we looking at?
My two Nana's

chocolate prizes!
After a whole week and a half of regression Cole had a whole day dry in big boy underwear. He is so excited to wear underwear just like Daddy's. He Had a dry nap ( 2 hours), Dry Car ride into town (about a 25 minute trip), and he even told us when he had to go. Yes we kept asking him if he had to go Potty and he would reply "I can't" in a slight british accent. I do know where he gets it. Too much Kipper the Dog on Sprout.
Cole also peed standing up today for the first time. Woo Wee! Chad was totally in charge of that one. I offered Cherrios for target pratice. Apparently his target was A okay today.
We spent the day cleaning the house. SO much Laundry for five people. We also did our bi weekly grocery shopping. The day was split with a trip to the Museum of the Rockies. Cole asks to go all the time. Cole Celebrated a dry day with a piece of dark chocolate and after he ate that he voluntarly brushed his teeth. Yeah for good hygine!!!
Ella also had a fantastic day. She woke us up not with crys of hunger but of giggles and cooing as she played in her crib till we got her out at 8 A.M. Unthinkable for our early riser. Usually she is up at 6 A.M. on the nose. She enjoyed a pleasant day of crawling, napping, snacking and hanging out with Mommy and Daddy as they did their chores. She was even smiling at 8:00 P.M. when we where on our way home from shopping at Costco. We are so happy when we are blessed with days like these. They are not few but when the bad days come it is nice to hold onto the good behavior you know is there.
