Not much happened on Thursday. The kids spent the day with their Grandma and their new friends. The stayed up way to late at Grandma's and swam most of the day so they were both very tired last night.

After supper we went to the park (the girls) and the guys went biking. Piper had a blast at the park. She was bouncing in her seat when I pulled in to the parking lot! After we got done at the park we took her over to the pond where all the ducks are. She thought they were pretty cool too! Next time we go over I will have to take some bread so she can feed them. I can't even imagine how much fun she will think that is!

Ashley tried to go biking with the guys. But she broke her glasses Wednesday night and they tried to fix them so she can wear them and it just isn't working out. So, she couldn't really see to go biking in the woods where there are lots of trees!

Took Piper home after the park and ducks and gave her a bath. I always feel so dirty after we have been at the park - I mean I feel she is so dirty. She prolly feels fine - but not mom! I have to give her a bath after park nights. The playground equipment is so disgusting. So rather than flip out while I am there..... I just make sure she gets a good scrub down when we get home. Gross...

Piper had NO bites yesterday at the sitter! YEAH! When I got to the sitter - the mother of the biter was just getting ready to leave and she said she was trying to get out before all the mothers got there. I felt bad for her. That would be so hard. I am not pissed at all - I just don't want my kid bit and I am sure those parents don't want him to bite! So, we all want the same thing -it will work out!

But when I did get Piper last night the sitter was telling me that after her vacation next week - she wants to start potty training Piper. I said lets go for it. At least try and see what we get. Apparently, yesterday Piper went in to the bathroom pulled up her shirt and sat on the bathroom scales. lol.... she does this at home often. Then when the sitter found her - Piper pointed to the toilet and made her Piper noise. I told the sitter I do want to start potty training soon I just figured with a new bed change, and this weekend (hopefully) a new room change I just didn't want to overload Piper with big changes in her life. But she will have a week and then we will try the potty training. Man I can't even imagine not buying diapers.... and wipes..... wow! Course prolly still have to get some pull-ups for night time for awhile. (when this all finally happens) The sitter doesn't want pull-ups at all. She wants panties and the plastic pants that go over top. So, off shopping we go this weekend!

Last night in the middle of the night - I went in to check on Piper. She had apparently fallen or gotten out of bed and was laying on the floor curled up in ball over in front of her changing table!!! She was asleep and stayed asleep when I put her back in bed and covered her up.

Not too big of plans this weekend. I want to get Ashley's new room painted and stuff moved over and Piper moved in to her new bedroom. I am determined to get this done this weekend. I want the change done. The big kids go to their mom's this weekend. So, I won't have their help but I won't have them in the way either!!! I really want Steve to get in some major biking this weekend. He was looking forward to biking last night and things kinda got screwed up so I told him to bike Saturday and Sunday this weekend. And I would like to see my parents sometime this weekend. Hopefully we can fit all that in with a grocery store stop(man these big kids are eating us out of house and home), Target run, JC Penny run(maybe) and laundry and cleaning!

p.s. We watched that movie The Bank Job - I liked it. I would recommended it. If you have bigger kids there is a heck of a sex scene at the beginning and a short one later so just be prepared. But the movie overall was pretty good!
