Back to Routine
Being out of routine for 2 weeks was rough for the littlest Hoy. Meltdowns, potty accidents and defiant, irrational behavior between sweet smiles and joyous laughter pretty much sums up our school break. Thankfully, we were all back to routine today and it was a much better day! I was happy to see Mattie's teacher's text with this sweet picture. Don't want to overshare, but there was great potty progress today. Yippee!

10 Years
10 years ago today, the Hoy House was born.
It has been a wild and crazy 10 years, and I would do it all over again!

7 Word Run-Together Sentence: "MommyIwannagothatwayplease." -Matthew At the main road, we turn right to go to most of the commerce and we turn left to go over the dam. Matthew always wants to go over the dam. He gets pretty put out when we turn the other way.
Jacksonism: "Alyssa, remember this from when we were kids?" looking at an ornament for the Christmas tree.
Parenting Fail: After I found tiny pieces of washed Kleenex all over a load of clothes, I scolded the kids for not emptying their pockets--only to realize it was likely mine. Oops!
50 Cents Spent: The audio cassettes of Harry Potter (book 3). 12 hours of quiet in the car times 2 brings the grand total to just over 2 cents per hour! Thankfully we already had a tape player and it easily plugged into the stereo speakers in the truck.
Doctor's Appointment: Jackson getting his spica cast off! I was not sad to see big green go!
Big Kid Moment: The day Alyssa made breakfast-- more than granola bars-- for her and the boys.
Matthew Moment: When Matthew said "I love you too" when saying goodnight.
