I NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD SEE THE DAY!!!

After a year and a half of frustration and trying EVERYTHING to get Aidan to go poo-poo on the potty... MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! Last weekend something just clicked and he ran in by himself and went and we have not had any accidents since. I am so happy, David is so happy, and Aidan is so proud of himself.

Here are some of the bribes that he is cashing in on:
1. He filled out his sticker chart for the kite he wanted and is the proud new owner of a Shamu kite
2. My mom is taking him to the theater to watch the dinosaur play
3. My sister Mandi is sending him some new unders
4. Lauren is getting him some candy
5. He finally gets to ride his scooter that he got for Christmas that I told him was only for bog boys about 2 months ago
6. He gets to chew gum

OH HAPPY DAY!

Aidan's Show!

My mom has been taking Aidan to the Children's Theater every couple of weeks to see the shows they put on there.
So, it was no surprise to me when he started to put on his own shows at home. He lines up all his stuffed animals, makes David and I sit down, and then he makes the animals talk to each other. It is so fun to watch his imagination at work.

Hey Hey Good Lookin!

David, Aidan, and Brinn getting ready for summer...

Me, on the other hand, not so much. This morning I spent 1.5 hours outside moving the sprinkler around to water the lawn... not my favorite thing! And this is just the beginning. In my next house automatic sprinklers will be a MUST!

Ponytail Time!

Look who is sporting a super cute little ponytail!

Speaking of Weddings...

Look who is getting married! Yeah!

Welcome to this crazy family!

Stayed tuned to tomorrow... reception pictures to come!

I have been a slacker...

... but with good reason. I have gone back to the workforce and now spend a few nights a week here waiting tables...

It's a fun little place... with great food and a good atmosphere. Plus, it is nice to have the extra money and get out of the house every once in a while. When David is home he watches the kids and when he is gone my mom watches them... and I think the kids like it more than being home with just me all the time. So that's why I am such a slacker and might continue to be until I figure out this being a mom and working thing.
