You might be a parent if........

Life is funny sometimes and as a parent you like to share it with, well, just about anyone who has ears.  The PR and myself are taking care of my niece and nephew temporarily along with our two ankle biters.  life is finding a system now.  But it is not without its excitement!  Yesterday my nephew Leo went poopie in the potty, like a big boy.  (Now you might be a parent if.... you talk about poop and pee with such excitement it sounds like a superbowl!)  Ok well for some parents it is the Superbowl a right of passage if you will, one that is right out of diapers! YES!  He was so proud, and we were excited too, I am ashamed we took a picture for posterity, or his first date (whichever maybe more embarrassing).  Lilly was a big girl and had her first day back at preschool, she did awesome.  it was the same day they had a travelling children's performance of Princess and The Pea.  It was also picture day so she was excited.
John celebrated the morning by ripping his diaper off and peeing on the floor, what can I say he was excited about starting the day and God Bless my carpet cleaner (It should either retire to someplace warm or be knighted).  Bethany had a great day at school and got herself a big green card for being so good! (whew!!)
We rounded out the early evening with a few cones and playing outside until dinner time.  We played a light touch football, Lilly guarded me and Bethany was quarterback.
