Potty Training and other funny outfits

So I am determined to not have 2 kids in diapers at the same time.  So we have started the potty training process and with that comes hilarious wardrobe and lots of carpet cleaning.
 Yes underwear over this diaper.  He was so excited to have unders to stole them and put them on over his diaper.
 Helping Uncle Keith pack.
 With Utah crazy weather there have been a lot of cold days.  So I pulled out the leg warmers so the poor kid wouldn't freeze
 I hate how bright this one it but if you look close you can see the best smile EVER!!
 Love the hat. And I guess the frog leg warmers are his favorite.
 The neighbors might think we are a bit nuts but oh well!!  We probably are. Right?
 I think he belongs on a golf course in this outfit.
 We were having a really hard day and after a long time of fussing I convinced him to go to the park but he would not go without his hat and gloves.  I think this was the longest he has ever worn the hat and gloves with this winter being so mellow. Made for a great ice breaker with the other parents at the park.
This is an outfit Toby brought back from Hawaii.  I think it's really funny.  
This kid is really starting to become so independent.  It's crazy how fast that happened.  He has an opinion about almost everything.  I wonder where he got that from (Toby)!! But it is so fun to see what he likes and I LOVE to laugh at him (does that make me a bad mom?).  When he wears funny things to the park I think I laugh out loud the whole walk there.

Heritage Park

Toby's mom came out to watch his brother's 3 girls while they went to Mexico for a wedding.  But before they left we went to Heritage Park.
 They walked around like this almost all day.  It was so cute!!!
 Love this one.
 They had lots of fun stuff for us to do there.  Here is Russell beating a rug.
 Toby and Russell plowing the field.
 Playing around.
 They had a little pony ride.  Russell loved it.
We had a great day together just hanging out here.  It was a blast.  Can't wait for summer to officially start so we can do more fun stuff like this and so Russell can play with his cousins more too.

Dad's Birthday

 Russell LOVES cake.  Who can blame him.
 Our gift was really heavy and Toby acted like it was really light so it was funny when my dad tried to move it.
 If I didn't have the dated on my pictures then I would not be able to tell if it was my dad's birthday or Russell's.  Russell is always in the center of the action.
My dad got a bench vise.  HAPPY BIRTHDAY.  
Now that Morgan and her family live in AZ our birthday parties are small.  So we just had dinner, cake and presents.
