Potty Training Blues~

So we actively started potty training Riley (2 1/2) a week ago.

He has been showing signs that he was ready for awhile.

I can get him to sit on the potty for a good 20 minutes but, no business.

In fact he cries when he thinks that he actually has to go on the potty.

Now Taylor loves the potty (1 1/2).

He has used int several times with my help.

He can't get his own pants on or off and that sort of thing.

I am trying to stay positive.

Although I would love suggestions and such.

I know that it's still early.

Yesterday was my baby brother's birthday.

He turned 14!

Happy Birthday Daniel!

I will try to post pics once I locate the camera.

It's muggy again today.

We have been having the strangest weather!

Well I have reading to do and a baby blanket that isn't going to work on itself!

Blah

2 Peas blogging challenge:
5 things that you do everyday without fail.

1. Kiss my boys good morning.
2. Make them breakfast
3. Brush my teeth
4. Wonder what to make for dinner
5. Drink a lot of water

Well that is a fairly boring list. What can I say. That is just my world. There are more exciting things but, they don't happen on a daily basis.

I had a Dr. appointment yesterday. Everything is good. The baby is growing nicely. I had to drink that glucose stuff. Not my idea of fun at 8:30am. It gave me a headache. Oddly enough I don't remember drinking it with either if of the boys but, I know that I did. How quickly we forget the details. It's raining today. Quite a change from the HOT weather that we were having. It just seems so dreary. We are having company over this evening, so that means I have to get off of my lazy lump and clean the house. It should be an interesting day. I just wish this was a more interesting post. I am going to enjoy my vanilla coffee (decaf) now.

I was feeling ambitious this morning so I made the boys waffles for breakfast.

Of course halfway through the waffle making process Riley says to me. "Mommy I want eggs." I told him " There are eggs in your waffle." Kids! What's a mom to do?

Andy is working today so it's just the boys and me. It's too hot to go outside and play. I think I would last for maybe 10 minutes. It's not so much the heat really as chasing the boys. I am starting to get to big for real chasing. That is not a good thing when you have to very active little boys. They are very good about it though. I think maybe we will go to Grandma's tonight and they can swim. They love it! Especially Taylor. He loves putting his face in the water. So fearless for only being 16 months. Too fearless at times.

Well it's time for me to go make lunch. Maybe I will get some more progress made on the baby blanket. I am halfway now. Need to get cracking! I mean I am almost 28 weeks.

Have a great weekend~

Progress

I finally got around to taking some pictures of the baby blanket in progress.

It's going to be 9 squares all together. 5 of the lavender squares and 4 of the quarter square squares. Those squares are made up of the Spring green and also a lovely blue. All of the yarn is Lions brand HomeSpun. I can't wait to see the finished product.

I'll keep you posted~

Celebration~

Happy 4th of July!

I hope that you can enjoy a safe and happy day with those that you care about!

It's gonna be HOT here.

I am looking forward to watching the boys run through the sprinkler and then enjoying a BBQ at the in-laws.

Have a fabulous day!
