Dry day

Spence is getting the whole potty thing. He's been fully dry, well except one accident but that was my fault. I should have taken him. He even tells me when he has to go. I'm pretty excited about it and sad at the same time. It means I have no babies left and I know there are no babies coming. But I do like the thought of no diaper changes.

Taylor finally got a hair cut. It's been almost a year and a half. It was starting to show that it needed to be cut. She looks so cute. For the past couple of months she has insisted that it would be chin length. It's slightly longer than that so she can still put it up.

Right now as I type this the boys are playing with barbies and polly pockets. And Taylor looks like she'll fall asleep any minute. She's not the least bit upset they are playing with her stuff.

Lack of imagination for a title

With surgery comes blood tests. Today was blood taking day for Taylor. The last time she was great. Watched the whole thing, didn't make a peep, didn't need Mommy to sit with her. This time was so different. Let me tell you how strong a 6 year old girl can get. Yikes. It took 3 of us to hold her down. And even with that she was trying to claw the needle out. She is a fighter. Hopefully like with the tube procedure no needles before hand. A stop for slurpees made up for the pain till her brother bit her and she said it reminded her of the needle. All is good now.

Potty training is going okay. I don't know how some kids can be so young and get it. I realize Spencer is younger than the other 2 were but it's discouraging to hear of people who's kids aren't even 2 and they are potty trained. Spence does pretty well just a few accidents.

Running has lacked. Trying to train sometimes with Chris' schedule is tough. Hopefully this week gets better. I'm starting to feel a lack of energy.

Anyway I hope everyone is have a happy spring so far. How can you not with the sunshining?

Another surgery

Taylor is having her tonsils out, not totally sure on the adenoids, on April 9th. She's been having a lot of sleep problems. Snoring and sleep apnea so we watched it and yesterday at her ENT appointment he said it would be best to take them out. Of course there are risks like any surgery. I always though that a tonsilectomy was a simple nothing can go wrong procedure. I was wrong. They don't take it lightly at all. Hopefully Taylor is not one of the kids that bleeds lots after and has complications. I have faith in God that she is in good hands and will be well taken care of. Still scary when it's your kid.

Potty training is going. Not terribly but not great. He is having accidents but he is getting better about going on the potty and not in his underwear. It will be so nice to have no swim diapers this summer.

Running is going. It's been kind of a slack week. It's sometimes hard working my training around Chris' schedule but I do what I can.

All in all we are doing good. Can't wait for the weather to warm up so we can play outside more.

Woohoo Visitors!

My youngest bro and his fiance will be arriving tomorrow around this time. I'm pretty excited. I haven't seen either of my brothers since Christmas. I wish we could all be together as a family. Devin and Liz I hope you're prepared for a week full of me. I plan on seeing you as much as possible. We will get to see Kristen in October, right in the middle of birthdaypalooza. Too bad Jordan won't be joining her. Who knows when we'll get to see him next. Anyone want to donate there airmiles? :)
Potty training is going fairly well. Okay except for the pooping. But we went out yesterday and today and Quinks was dry the whole time. Woohoo! On to only 1 in diapers.
Well I should probably do something. Not feeling very motivated lately. When the weather is crappy I feel like curling up and watching a movie or right now the Olympics, with my punks instead of cleaning and laundry.

Have a great night!

What is going on?

I'm starting to wonder if I should pull the winter clothes back out. This weather is starting to really suck. I know that out east they are feeling a bit differently. I don't want the crazy humid weather but some sun would sure be nice. At least we haven't had to water the grass yet or our new bushes/plant things/shrubs. (Not sure what category they are in) Although I did see someone watering there new grass, while it was raining. Can you say over kill?
I hope wherever you are that you are having a great day, whatever kind of weather.
I just thought a really big bonus for this weather. Quinte has been forced to stay inside so we are trying to potty train him. He was dry all night last night and so far all day too. Except for poops. At least it's not on the floor. Sorry no poop stories.
