Memorial Weekend and NEW HOUSE!

Our weekend was very eventful!! We found a house we love and put an offer on it before the weekend began. They countered, then we countered back and they accepted!!!!!! So now it looks like we have to start packing (THE PART I HATE). We will hopefully be in the new home by the end of June, right before 4th of July weekend. Friday and Saturday was filled with the new home back and forth conversation but Sunday and Monday we got to play. After church on Sunday, Brandon and I dropped the kiddos off at my Mother-in-laws house to have some hubby/wifey time. We grab a bite to eat and ran some errands. Its amazing how quickly we can get things done with we aren't hualing around two munchkins! Monday morning we packed up the car and headed to the G-bury for some fun in the sun. Ella swam all day in her new spiffy life jacket and Hudson just did his normal... slept! Poor little Ella got sun burned on her nose and cheeks. Its super cute but hope it doesnt bother her too much. We head home around 6 and the minute we stepped in the door Ella and I were passed out on her bed. Thanks Daddy for putting Hudson to bed! Can't wait to have more fun weekends at the lake!

Mother's Day and Dedication

Mothers Day was so much fun and exciting for our family. Brandon and I dedicated to our church to raise our children in a christian home! It was a sweet ceremony and we have such amazing pictures to remind us of that great day. Our family joined us at church that Sunday to share in our dedication, and that meant alot to Brandon and I. Thank you Mom, Austin, Ashely, Baby Avery (pre-birth), Wally and Vicki! We really appreciate the support you give our family. After church we headed to Gloria's for some yummy Mexican food then home for the kiddos naps. That evening we had more family come over for dinner and games! I love game night!!! :) Brandon and the babies had sweet cards and a framed picture of Brandon and me. I love getting framed pictures because I never do them myself. (thanks honey!!) Hope all Mommy's had a wonderful loving day!

no time to blog but I had to post this pic!

This is baby cooper and baby hudson! Haley and I wanted naked baby shots to show their future girlfriends :)

Potty Training Time!!

Its official we are potty training.... well trying! I have decided to get this done before I go back to work on Monday... yes in 5 days. I tried on Saturday by just letting her wear big girl panties and a sun dress because I have heard that if she tee tee's in those she will not like it. Supposedly they dont like the feeling of wet panties and tee tee running down their legs. Well not my sweet little girl... she would say "Mommy, I tee teed on the floor." I would make her clean up the messes and then showed her where the potty was. Well nap time came around and I let her sleep in panties instead of a diaper... bad idea! She got up to play with a couple of her toys and tee teed on the floor, well on her way back to laying down she slipped in the mess. Poor thing... She was so upset and when I went to pick her up she said " mommy I fell down in the tee tee" it was sooooooo HARD not to laugh. I really thought that would do the trick but no and we kinda gave up on Sunday. So now I have decided to really focus on it with the 3 day potty training technique. Hope it works. I dont want my kid laying in their own tee tee. YUCK! Wish us luck!
