What Hair!

Potty Training!


We have been potty training Jordan the last few weeks. He has been doing pretty good I must say! He has now had 4 days of no accidents. He is a funny little potty trainer, he has to have his privacy. When he goes in to go he will tell who ever is taking him to "Get out and shut the door!" Today was the first day he told me the he had to go, I was so excited. He went in and went. Way to go Jordan I thought! Then he started to scream and point into the toilet. He had gone poop and it had scared him when it splashed in. It was quite funny! The good news is that now that he is potty trained I only have to get diapers for night time. More money in my pocket!!!

Sleepy Boy

Jordan has decided that now that he is 2 he no longer needs to take a nap. I tried for over an hour to get him to take a nap. He was not going to take a nap. So of course while we were eating dinner he fell asleep! It is cute but was grumpy when he woke up from hunger. That is the life I live and love it.

Christmas
So I promised pictures when I figured the camera out. Well as you can see I have figured it out! Here are Christmas pictures. John opening the Wii. Alex was thrilled.


Zach and Alex both got the Nerf Wii game they love it.



Courtney was in shock, "We got a Wii and a High School Musical beanbag!" A lot of screaming from her, you can imagine.




Here is our little, or not so little "hill-billy".

The Kids Are Finally Gone!

I know some of you think that I am slacking off, but my kids just went back to school today! They had 3 weeks of school off and I am so burnt out. The holidays were great. The kids made out again. Wii got a Wii this year, I am hooked on Guitar Hero. I also got a camera so I will be posting more pictures once I figure out how to do it. Alex got his cast off the week after Christmas so we have been doing arm exercises every day. Courtney decided she was missing out on all the fun of getting hurt, so she dropped a glass bowl, it shattered, and had to get stitches in her wrist. Zach is our little hill-billy. His 2 front teeth fell out(OK we pulled them out). So he has no top teeth, and his bottom 2 are still coming in. We have decide it was time to potty train Jordan. I have been putting it off! He is doing OK. Any ideas would be great. I know after 4 other kids you would think I was a pro, but I'm not, yet. Makenna has nothing new for once. Now that the holidays are over we will once again get to see more of John! Hallelujah!!! I can now get my house back to order now that the kids are back in school and I will get more that a minute of a clean room at a time. As for goals I haven't had time to even think about that, maybe that will be my goal to think about it!
