Happy Valentines Day



I am not much of a Valentine fan, but this year my cute husband sent me a beautifull boquet of roses!! Also I have a three year old that makes any holiday fun. In our family the Valentine Phantom comes and brings a little gift to the kids. JJ was at my mom's house today and the Valentine Phantom visited why he was there. The Valentine Phantom brought him Harold the Helicopter (if you have kids that are fans of Thomas the Train you will know who this is) Well Pappa (my dad) walked into the room...

Grandma "JJ tell pappa who came and brought you Harold the Helicopter"

JJ full of excitement replied "President Hinckley"

I guess our Valentine Phantom this year is President Hinckley :) I thought maybe I should rename him the Valentine Spirit.

Kids are so cute.

Schooling

I need advice. I know my son doesn't start Elementary for a couple of years and things can change alot in that time, but I need some oppinions on public and charter schools. I am just starting to do my research on where I want my kids to go to school. This is such a huge step for our little ones to go off to school, especially without their mommie right behind them telling them to be carefull :) Okay, so it is probably a bigger step for me and I am the one that will be having the emotional breakdown. I would love to hear anyone and everyone's comments.

What to do??

Okay, so here are my two problems..... I don't think my three year old will ever be potty trained, and I don't think my eight month old will ever like to eat anything but bananas. First, JJ is not even interested in the potty. He can tell me when he is going in his diaper and when he is finished, but he won't go on the potty. I have tried every bribe in the book!! I even told him he could go on an airplane ;) If I try to push it and try to force him to sit on the potty he freaks out. I think he will be in diapers until he's 5. Second I can't get my eight month old to eat anything unless the taste is covered up with bananas. How do I get him to eat normal? If he tastes something he doesn't like and I keep trying to feed it to him, he just stops eating. These are my dilemas of being a mom :) I just need to get that off my chest. I feel much better!!
