We are working on replacing all the plants on the patio that were either killed by the winter cold or by Sadie the Wonder Mutt. Sneedlet One is supposed to be smiling for the camera, but seems distracted. The lovely Mrs. Sneed will ask me why I didn't think to sweep up before I took the picture. Reality man, reality.
Yesterday was a breakthrough day for Sneedlet One. He decide that three and a half was old enough to ditch wearing diapers. He had been very resistant to the idea of underwear or "bigs" as he call them. I have been trying to encourage him to give up his diapers to no avail. His mom figured that he would get the idea eventually and reminded me not to tramautizre the kid over it. He has been with us all day and so far there have been no mishaps, so I guess he is serious about the transition.
Sneedlet watches some television show on the Sprout channel where a policeman tells various villains to "Stop in the name of the law", which Sneedlet understands to be, "Stop in the name of Plod", which he marches around, repeating with authority.
In his little Sneedlet brain, he figured that he needed a stop sign to accompany his declaration. Better yet, he decided he needed a sign with stop on one side and go on the other. He has a part to his train set like that. The lovely Mrs. Sneed made him one from foam board and construction paper. He is very proud of it. The kid may a future in road construction.

Awwwwwwwww, how cute! And congrats about S1's transfer to BIGS!!! Woo hoo! We're in the same stage right now. We're also now on day 2 1/2 of no pacifiers. I can't believe no one is dead. I expected it to be so much worse.
I relate to Mrs. S on several things...I would have been fretting over pictures being taken on my unswept patio (though it never even crossed my mind seeing yours unswept)...and what was the other thing? I've already forgotten, but please tell her she did an INCREDIBLE job on the stop sign! Talk about perfect! Galee! I'm impressed!
You aren't by any chance related to the Sneeds of Texas are you? :D Ironman proposed to me when I was house sitting for my boss-Sally Sneed. Hee hee!
I am thinking about transitioning from diapers to 'Bigs' myself.

I say "stop in the name of plod" too, but I tend to mumble, so it sounds more like "stob inna aimploh"
sometimes.
Bob, I believe you're wearing diapers now, too.
