guess what?

big surprise i have been absent again. life has been going on here. lol we have went on two mini vacations to nick's mom's cottage on lake, had a family reunion, started potty training with allie, had a whole week of sick kids and then there's everyday life that has kept us busy.

sorry i have been absent. i have been enjoying life minus the week of sick kids. summer goes by way too fast and you gotta enjoy it while its here.

the last couple days allie, has been potty training herself. sunday she wanted to wear underwear and we put them on her. we figured what the heck, what would it hurt? well she had no accidents. then monday came and she wanted to wear underwear again, and she did super good except she had one accident right before naps. tuesday came and no accidents. and today she hasnt had any accidents either. even with a trip to walmart. maddie, did the same thing when she was two, she just decided one day to wear underwear and tada she was potty trained. i am really hoping it goes the same way with allie. allie has already been going on number two on the toliet for months and months. so now we just have to finish with the potty part.

today, i made zucchini pineapple bread and monster cookies. tomorrow i have to clean the house and get ready for my tupperware party.

christian is 10 months old today. i just can't believe my baby is getting so big already. he is crawling, climbing steps, and furniture walking. our girls never did any of this early. he just has no fear at all. at this point, he may be our earliest walker. maddie started walking at 15 months and allie was almost 18 months old.

i think today i realized that my babies are getting so big. maddie will be attending preschool in the fall, allie is almost potty trained and christian will be 1 year old in just 2 months. so sad.

well its time for me to go make some popcorn and watch the weather. there are tons of warnings out. i am praying for no tornados and no flooding my basement.

toodles!
