The girls recently started their refresher lessons for swimming. They are doing awesome! I won't say that it can't be a pain at times, but knowing that they are learning so much, and stand a chance if an accident were to ever happen makes it all worth it. I'm so proud of them. These are the lessons we're involved in, take a look if you have young children that can't swim. www.infantswim.com
The title says it all! :)
Yep, that's right. It didn't take long! YAY! Reese has been in panties for over a week now. She's been doing awesome! Even wears panties to bed. Yay Reese. Oh how nice it is to only have ONE baby in diapers! Just wanted to share my excitement! :)
Kylie had her first t-ball game today. It was really cute. They all did good! Her team is Comm-Tech, which happens to be the BEST Verizon store around, so be sure to check them out in Wildwood or Bushnell! ;)

The kids and I went to the beach for a couple days with Meagan and Blake. We had a wonderful time. The kids had fun, and so did the moms. I slept in the bed with Kylie and Reese. I now know why we've never done that before. I can't say never, but I can also could on a few fingers how many ti mes we've co-slept. It was horrible. Ha. Ok, not horrible, but definitely not fun. ;) A wonderful moment, I will admit, was when I woke once and looked over and saw 2 sweet, peaceful sleeping girls. My heart was full of love. Kade slept great in his pack n play at the end of the bed. The kids loved the beach, and the kiddie pool that had a slide. The girls are really swimming good. We spent a lot of time on the beach and by the pool. We ate pizza. We also ate donuts. We drank organic milk to make up for the bad donuts ;) We went out for ice cream. We ran. We played. We build sand castles. We sang. We cried (well, only a little). We slept. But most of all, we had FUN. Now, on to the pictures! :)
I think it's safe to say... we're potty training! Ack!!
It's been on and off for the past month or so, and slowly getting more serious. She's been doing awesome for one day, then horrible the next. She's not all to blame though as I sometimes forget to ask if she needs to go, and quite frankly, she'd pee in her diaper/pull up if she wanted. On Wednesday I decided to brave it and let her wear panties to school. Her teacher actually encouraged me at our conferences, but I was hesitant. But... she came home IN her panties AND the same shorts. YAY! So, yesterday she did great, and only had 1 small accident, but finished up on the potty. Ha. We were on our way home from baton when I hear "I gotta go potty"... perfect. What's a girl to do. So we went to GG and Papa's and ran in to use the potty. She did it though. Yayyy Reese! Today she wore panties ALL day, no accidents. Woot! Can you tell I'm excited. I swore this girl would be 10 before she trained! ;) We're definitely not trained, but we're in the right direction!
Ok, Kade... you're next! .... Kidding! :P
Seriously, time flies. Is it really Sunday night? And passed my bedtime for that matter!! The weekend flew by, but the week was even crazier. But all in all, life is good. :)
I know, I know... I *still* haven't uploaded Disney pictures. I've been so busy, and well... my camera broke. It's been shipped to the manufacturer for repair, so I had to get the pics put on a CD. Well... they are ALL out of order. That does nothing good for my OCD. I can't post pictures if they're out of order. So I either wait till I get my camera back and let it put them in order, or arrange them. And obviously, neither has happened. ;) Soon... promise! :)
We had a busy week though! When we got back from Disney, Kylie and I got our nails done. Well, her's painted and I a pedicure!
The weekend (last) was insanely busy. Birthdays, weddings, bridal showers, church, and more birthdays. But I wouldn't trade it for the world! ;) After the weekend was over, then starts the busy week... Tball, baton, school, more tball, work, housework.... you get my drift. AGAIN, wouldn't trade it for the world. And, on top of the crazyness... I just added swim lessons on to the plate. 5 days a week!!! Worth it though, to know my kids would have a chance at surviving if anything were to ever happen.
We also visited papa in the hospital last week. Since papa was sick, we needed to color him a picture and put it in an envelope and take it to him. We also needed to take candy, but we opted out on that one. I think SHE just wanted to give papa the candy so he would give her some. I'm smart ;) We're happy that papa is home now though, and hopefully going to continue doing better! She sure was worried about papa. And so was her mama, and even daddy asked about him several times a day. I think daddy felt bad for picking on him so much when something WAS wrong. :/
