A Huge Milestone!

Max used the potty this morning for the very first time! I am soooo excited! We have been trying to get him used to it for a few weeks now and he is really interested in sitting on it but up until this point nothing has happened...

For whatever reason he finally got it this morning....let's hope this becomes a trend and maybe just maybe he will be using it more often by the time the baby gets here!

Any potting training advice would be well receieved!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My Little Runaway!

Max had his first attempt in running away yesterday. It was hystarical.

We were outside playing and I had planted a few new plants while he was taking his nap and thought he would enjoy helping me water them with the hose. Well he enjoyed it, far too much....by the time we got done he was soaked but I let him play for a few more minutes just to appease him and then decided that it was time to head in so we could dry off.

Let's just say he was not very happy with my decision. I had turned off the water to the hose as he was still trying to get water to come out of the nozzle. I did have to chuckly to myself as I watched him squeeze the trigger so hard his whole body was shaking. HE HE HE!

But I finally managed to get it out of his hand and told him it was time to go in and he started screaming at me and then started running out into the yard (thankfully we were in the back). I just let him run for a second to see what he was going to do, well he got about 20 feet from me, stopped, turned around and gave me the dirtiest look I have ever seen and just turned back around and stood there with his back to me. I laughed out loud....and hard too!

I SOOOO wish that I would have had a camera because it was hilarious - of course I am sure if he could cuss me out that is what he was doing!! LOL!

Big News!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know that many of you have been waiting oh so paitiently and I apologize for my lack of communication but it has been a busy week.

I have been in Michigan since last Tuesday so finding time to sit down in front of the computer has been almost impossible....but I wanted to share the big news just in case everyone hadn't heard.

Karl and I are expecting a Girl to arrive on September 9 and we are thrilled! Of course I don't think as thrilled as Nana and Mom-Mom are!!! The baby is doing fine and is very active....we got some really great pictures at the ultrasound that I will have to try and figure out how to scan into the computer for everyone to see.

More info to come later!
