I am a big boy now!

Matty with a bare bum outside!

Today is a big day it the Pastore house... we have FINALLY gotten Matty to poop on the potty... actually I have to give the credit to Cindy my friend and babysitter. I have been struggling with potty training Matty since last Friday... and it looks like today we have finally turned the corner. Thank goodness. This is our third attempt at potty training... its resembles trying to house break a dog more than anything... the first two attempts were complete failures when after three days of him peeing on the floor or pooping in his undies... I gave up... This time we purchase some really yummy chocolate ice cream herseys kisses treats! BRIBBERY works every time!

It is also a big day for Josh as today he started summer camp at Tutor Time. He had a really great day and seemed to have played and played and played and wore himself right out... he didn't have a utter meltdown until we got outside in the car thankfully so they don't yet know the "other" side of Josh's bubbly personality... just wait!

This picture is from Friday... when he decided he needed to fix his roof on his swingset in the back yard... it was just to cute not to share!

They had a graduation ceremony at St. Theresa's on Tuesday and he was dressed as a penguin for his part of the show.. so very cute... the kids were just about as cute as can be!

And last but definately not least.. Joe... Lacrosse has come to a end and spring football has started. He is keeping busy with school. Next week is final exams and then he is done for the summer. So far the grades look to be pretty good... but we will be helping him study this weekend for the finals... then we can breathe easy and enjoy the summer.
