Events of the Dawson Weekend

Whew- what a weekend! I feel like the last three days and ALL of Spring Break flew by!! Most entertaining though had to be the past couple days. Liam is officially potty trained! I won't go into the gruesome details :) but it was like the flick of a switch and boom, done! Below you will see my lovely lima bean learning to pee pee (this was like an hour after our first success on Friday) and he wanted to pee on everything in sight! I walked inside to get my camera, and walk back outside to this...Liam up on the dog bowls, peeing. I literally was shaking I was laughing so hard trying to take this picture!!! Sorry Uncle Sid - I'm sure this is not how you would have wanted to see your hand-me-down doggie bowls being used...

Then Saturday morning Liam and I woke up early, let Daddy sleep in. We did some serious painting, Little Einstein watching, and then decided we were hungry. Here you will see my little Chef cooking up some great french toast liquid while sipping a juice box! Cooking stirs up quite a thirst!

Next we went to my in laws house with the kiddos and the whole family went swimming. We all managed to get some nice sun and have some fun times in the pool (minus the final water gun fight Jackson started when I had showered and was fully clothed again...boo). Liam learned what a Mohawk is (he is giving Daddy this style below) I think we all have some tan lines today! Thank goodness I have an aloe plant at home - we made good use of it even with 50 sunscreen on!! Liam learned also to jump in the pool with a little more gusto. He's never been a big fan of water in his face (hello Aunt Sissy - who is this kid related to!?!?) But this weekend he did a great job!! Video of his big jump below!

We ended Saturday night with a ravishing game of family Wii. Now, I did get a video of my mother in law hoola hooping, but under penalty of death I'm not allowed to post it :) But, Jackson is fair game so here is his hoola video! Sorry it's sideways, haven't figured out how to flip it yet :)
