Our lives with our two boys: What is new in our household

The friends who have kids know what I am talking about. There are weeks when so much happens, you feel like you could write a book about them!
The past couple of weeks have been like that in our house.

We have had to lower Oliver's crib mattress, because he now stands up and tries to get out of it. Cute, but scary!

Oliver has started walking with the walker, which made him earn new shoes. It took him a couple of walks to get used to having something weighing on his feet!

Noah is being potty-trained. I have to tell you, we are not really good at it. We actually suck at it. We get frustrated, and we even have sucumbed to bargaining. There is a surprise box in this house now...you pee you get a surprise, you poop you get a surprise...seriously...how bad do we really need the kid to stop doing it on the diaper? It is not like he is going to go to college on them. But I have to agree with Marcio...the kid's diapers stink really bad! :-)
I added a picture of him in his new cool Brazilian boxers. I was not going to mention that they lasted a whole 5 minutes before he peed on them...it was so cute though. He looks like such a big boy!

We found out that Noah will be transitioning to the new room at daycare at the end of the month. Wow, the 3's room! Unbelievable! He is ready, though. Really ready. I think he will walk right into it. No problems there.

Oliver is starting to try some solids like bread, pretzels, chicken, pizza crust.. :-)

I don't even need to tell you that he started refusing jar food already. Oliver, you are 9 months, filho! Slow down!

This past weekend we went to an Easter Egg Hunt organized by the MBI (Brazilian Moms of Indiana), and the kids had a blast. Noah really got into looking for the eggs and filling his basket and Oliver's. The kids also got a Brazilian Easter egg each (making mom and dad really excited!)
