It's been a busy season with Sinterklaas, Stoney's birthday on the 21th, my mom's birthday on the 22nd and then Christmas. On December 26th we went to my family in Nederland for a couple of days. We didn't do anything spectacular while there. It was too cold. But it was nice to spend time together with family.
Stoney's birthday was on a Friday and he had a great day. He of course had his birthday at school and then in the afternoon i had gotten of work and his Oma and Opa from Nederland came. He was remarkable polite and said thank you for every gift that he got. He really feels big now that he is six.
I have some pictures of his birthday, but unfortunately he doesn't photograph as well as Monty, but you'll just have to take my word for it that he is every bit as cute as Monty is.

U-no-poo
U-no-poo! The constipation sensation that is gripping the nation! Well, it is not gripping the nation, but it is gripping Monty. (for those of you who wonder, i have not gone mad, it's Harry Potter reference).
Monty is having some issues. He has never in particularly liked going to the potty for number 2 and in December he started holding it in. He just refused to go, till he had a bunch of bricks in his lower belly. We finally gave him some laxative around Christmas and though that got things moving a little bit, it was not till Wednesday that he started pooping round the clock. Obviously we have since stopped giving him the laxative. In the last three days he has pooped in his pants about 10 times - all to be cleaned up by Leland, because I had to go back to work on Wednesday. I guess Monty figured that since he was now pooping in his pants all the time, he might as well pee in his pants too... Needless to say, we are doing laundry constantly. We really hope that once school starts again on monday he'll snap out of this regression phase and go back to using the potty. Otherwise... we might upset his teacher a lot.
Just to show how cute he can be when he doesn't dirty his pants...
