Riddle Me This, Batman!

It has been forever since I last posted so I realize that we probably no longer have anyone following our blog...but just in case there is someone out there, this one's for you! Todd created this nifty little riddle to announce our latest news (many probably already know the news) but if you can figure out this picture riddle, you're a genius!

Muscle Man

Grady dressed up as a Muscle Man for Halloween this year. We had a great time with both sets of grandparents at the 1st Ward Halloween party (we were called traitors at church in 3rd ward today). Grady loved the cake walk (and walked away with a cupcake prize even though his number was never called during the 15 times he played), loved running around in his costume, and loved trick-or-treating. We tried to get him to say trick-or-treat when walking around the gym to collect his candy, but he figured out that all he had to do was hold out his pumpkin and smile (much like he has figured out that to get what he wants from Todd, all he has to do is say "You're the best daddy").

Can You Guess What Song This Is?

I need help!

My almost 2 1/2 year old son is afraid of the toilet! Months ago, I sat him up on the toilet and he had no problem with it. Didn't go, but didn't freak out either. Then on the third try or so...he wobbled a little and thought he was going to fall in (we didn't have the little seat attachment yet). Now he screams bloody murder if I even mention going potty on the toilet! Does anyone out there have any suggestions? Should I invest in one of those seperate mini toilets? Or do you think he'll come around when he's ready?!?!?!

Many parents give treats AFTER the kid goes potty, I had to bribe him to SIT on the potty!

Finally a week to blog about

This week is the Adams Co. Fair and Rodeo. We took advantage of Dollar Day and headed out to the fairgrounds on Wednesday evening. Grady LOVED it. He ran through the animal barns numerous times, mooing at the cows and laughing when they'd moo back. He even did some wild dancing to a cowboy singing some Johnny Cash. Today he's talking about going back to the "fairn" to go on the alligator train (we didn't make it to the rides on Wednesday but he could see them from where we parked). We'll see...I think I'd have to take some Clorox wipes with us to feel good about putting Grady in those seats. Can't be any worse than Othello WalMart's shopping carts right? The most exciting news of the week is that Uncle Matt returned from his mission to Chile. We had a good evening last night--met him at the airport, enjoyed some delicious mexican food, and then attended a session at the temple. Grady can't wait to spend more time with him! As for today, school is out for the fair (the first time we've had a day off during fair week). I love the Adams Co. Fair more than ever!

Cousins

I stole these off my sister's blog because they were so dang cute. We were able to spend a lot of time with our Walker cousins in August and loved every minute. Love these kids. (In order of oldest to youngest)
