P.P.O.T.P!

"Beware of the yellow snow."

This saying need not apply today. There was indeed snow. There was indeed "yellow."

Shawn had a spectacular time sled riding today with MeMe, Mommy, and Gunkle Bike (the spectator.) The snow was the perfect consistency for a fun filled down hill free fall.

And where was this yellow, you ask? And what does P.P.O.T.P stand for? Yellow stands for pee.

Pee Pee on the Potty! Yes! My little boy is a big boy now... he finally pee'd on the potty!!! Tonight he decided to escape from his pajama changing station and ran freely around the house (by freely I mean nude.) I decided to try, yet again, with the small bribe of a lonely M&M. Sure enough, Shawn wanted that M & M so badly he gave it up and pee'd! My little stinker knows what he's doing and he knows exactly whats going on with this here potty training business. He's just giving us a little run for our money ;)



Pappy & Shawn playing with Noah's animals.


Making those cutie patootie faces!


This snow stuff is pretty cool, huh Mom?


Gunkle Bike showing me the ropes of "snow walking."


Beautiful Winter Wonderland.


My 1st snow angel!


We don't believe this was MeMe's 1st snow angel ;)


And dowwwwn we gooooo!

These two were such a hoot hitting that dip at the bottom of the hill.

My little snow bunny.


Shawn likened the trip down the hill to the Flume ride.

Shawn=Thrilled. MeMe=Thriller.

Oh the faces we make! My mother amazed me today. Her agility... Her grace... Her face! Look how much fun good ol' MeMe was having in the snow. I still wonder who had the most fun, Shawn or his MeMe.

Landon needed a nap just thinking about all that sled riding going on outside.
This neat little guy was perched up on a wheelbarrow outside my grandparents basement window. Of course I had to grab the nifty zoom lens and try getting a few shots of this amazing creature through the window.



Peek-a-boo... there he is!



Landon, my little boy sitting on his own.

Bonding time with MeMe.


MeMe mimicking Landon's facial expression.


Nanny & Me


She thinks I'm pretty special ;)


"And I think she should give thumb sucking a try!"


Shawn making MeMe laugh... almost too hard!

Buddies... Pals... The Grand.


After a long day... sled riding... snow eating... angel making... Shawn and Peeps curl up for a little rest. And a few minutes after this picture was taken... Shawn made his great potty debut!
