I'm Thankful For...day 4 (Potty Training)

Today I'm thankful for potty training going well. Rex is doing great! We started again on Monday after having a major Parent Fail! Now we are off and running. He hasn't had an accident with peeing since Monday even in his diaper while at Popa's house. He only had one accident yesterday with pooping in his underwear which was not fun at all but it was more my fault because I decided to take a bath in the middle of the afternoon and not put a diaper back on him. He's doing great with understanding that he needs to go potty and he's holding it longer which is just fantastic! Today we are heading out to a mom's group to go play and I'm not risking underwear in public just yet but I'm going to just stay on top of it and hope that we can get him to go in public too and if so that means he would be almost completely potty trained at 2 1/2! That would be great! Then it would just be night time training which there really isn't anything that you can do to train that part. Just have to wait until their body is ready for it. Either way going from diapers all day (using disposables right now) to just at night would make a huge difference in cost. 



So now it's time for you to share what you are thankful for! Grab the button, write a post, link up, share with everyone what you are so thankful for this month!

Happy Father's Day!

Today is father's day and most people are getting together and celebrating with family. Dads, grandpas and uncles all celebrating together the joys of being a father. Maybe getting a chance to relax and enjoy just sitting around watching the kids play and being surrounded with family. That's what father's day has always looked like for us. We would always gather at my parents house. First, with my grandparents when I was growing up for dinner and a day of enjoying being together. Then as I grew older my sister and I would make sure to spend the day with our dad. Then we got married and had kids of our own and the tradition continued. We would bring all the kids and enjoy BBQing at my parents house enjoying time together. This year things are different.We can't just jump in the car and head over for a BBQ. We can't sit around on the couch or on the patio talking and laughing together. This year we are 12 hours away from where I've always been for father...

The ABC's of Our Family

I got a great idea from this lovely  blog  about doing a ABC photo book through out the year. Each week taking one photo that goes along with a letter. I have seen lots of great ideas for different photo blog ideas but all seem like to much work and something that I know I wouldn't be able to do. This one seems reasonable for our crazy life.  So to start off I have chose a great picture that I took of Rex and M playing together one day when he got home from work. Rex is so ADORABLE in this picture I just knew this was what I had to use! Plus I already know what I'm using for next week even though the picture hasn't been taken yet.  So here it is.......ADORABLE Rex playing with his Daddy! Oh I just can't get enough of this guy. Also as a little side note to how adorable he is...he kept posing for the camera once I got. He didn't care that Mommy was watching him play and wouldn't even look at me but soon as the camera was out he had to keep turning and...

Bikini Body Mommy Challenge Update!

So we are starting week 8 (I think). It's been a few weeks since I have officially sat down and updated on how I have been doing. Week 6 I did pretty good. The 4 am workouts were starting to wear on me so I decided to try and get a workout in after my hubby left for work but before the kids got up. Some days that went OK and other days not so well. I did however get several workouts in with the boys awake and they went pretty well. Monkey tired to join in with me and it was quite fun to watch. Of course he couldn't keep up with the workouts and took many breaks but it was fun to have him involved. This week I plan to do cardio days at 4 am in the gym because they are easier than trying to complete in the house. But for the non-cardio days I will do them in the house in the morning. That way I'm not completely exhausted everyday. Now for week 7. I have no idea even what the workouts were for last week. I didn't even look once! I have good reason though. My hubby h...
