What's Going On?!?

Just thought we'd let you know what has been going on with us. I seriously have not had any time to even download any pictures!

Remy is in his second week of swimming lessons at the local pool. He is having a blast too! He loves to play in the water and is doing well letting the teacher show him new things. He finally, after 5 whole swimming lessons went all the way under without plugging his nose. I was so surprised! Then that was all he did for the rest of the time. If he learns nothing else, the money was well spent for learning how to bob!

Tate is totally into peeing in the potty right now. He loves to watch Remy go and to flush the toilet for everybody. He wanted to get on the other day and he actually went. So everytime Remy goes Tate has to go, which is a little annoying, but I have to remind myself what the bigger goal is! Yesterday he actually asked to go potty. I took him in and thought that he had just went in his diaper and told me after, but to my surprise he actually went. I will ride this wave as long as it lasts (and I won't be surprised if he is still not potty trained when he is 5 hee-hee!).

I was put in as Cubmaster in Cub Scouts last week. We still haven't chartered (because we are a new ward and thus a new Pack), and we don't have all our Den leaders yet, but we have one really ambitious Den leader who is frantic because February is the Blue and Gold Banquet and we only have two weeks left!!!!
So, any ideas for a Blue and Gold Banquet??
We have been enjoying all of your blogs, keep up the good work!

Blue and Gold Banquet ideas - we just had ours last night, and we did Karaoke! The boys loved it. We also have a raffle every year - everyone donates $$ or a small toy, book or other item.
Food is potluck, of course. The Pack buys the main dish (usually El Pollo Loco) and each level of scout is assigned categories of dishes - Tigers – Dessert Wolves – Salads
Bears – Side dishes Webelos 1 – Veggies/fruit
Webelos 2 – Appetizers

Plus they have a cake decorating contest.
