Kids are sick

Well, it isn't even fall yet, but the kids are already starting to pass the germs around. On Tuesday, Mabel started to get a runny nose and it has been constant nose wiping since then. Yesterday, Sam decided to join in the fun and his nose has been running non-stop. Then this morning Max sounded kinda congested, so we hope his doesn't turn into anything. Mabel is starting to help more and more lately, but doesn't quiet understand enough yet. I asked her to go get a tissue so I could wipe her nose and she came back with a handful of tissues and then said, "Nice!" because she knows she has been helpful.

Potty training has taken a miraculous turn in the past two days. We went from having eight accidents on Tuesday to only one yesterday. Mabel finally learned to flush the toilet and pull down her own pants and I think she enjoys being able to do things by herself more, so we just hope she stays with it because she has a tendency to regress very quickly.
