puppy love

Summer is finally here!







cute or gross? I vote cute!

six months

I think I swallowed clays basketball

wait nope its just me at 6 months along. Even though I hate taking pregnancy photos I thought I should document it a little bit for prosperity's sake. This was taken a couple weeks ago at 6 months. since then Im sure Ive already gained another ten pounds, maybe its time for me to stop trying to wear my normal clothes?

my new favorite thing

Delicious and Nutritious

My Grandma will be thrilled to know that I am totally into drying fruit right now. I got myself a dehydrator at Walmart and have probably dried something on a daily basis. Its so simple and my kids LOVE to eat it. Just thought I'd share my new passion.

Potty power

Its that time

its actually way past that time but it is time for me to face up to the challenge of potty training Tate. I'm scared, very scared. Even though he looks a little special here, he is fully capable of doing it... I think... so why am I so frightened? I am taking the approach that I took with Ty, which is using a box of "Potty prizes" and he gets a small one for performing #1 and a bigger one for #2. So far he has done all right. He has tried to go #2 with some disastrous results but at least he tried, and #1 seems pretty easy for him if he is only wearing underpants or nothing but add pants and it becomes way too much work. We will see how it goes, wish me luck!
