House update

We have been so busy getting ready to move. We had a walk through today and finally close next Thursday. Ethan turns 3 in a week and a half so we are planning his pirate birthday party. Here are pictures of the house! I love the washer/dryer!

Guess who is potty training?

We started potty training last Saturday. He has done pretty well. He hasn't worn a diaper in over a week, even at night! He still has accidents during the day and once or twice at night. He doesn't like to poop in the potty but with some forcing and a few hours, he will go. How can we fix that? He also will just pee on the floor without telling me he needs to go. Is this just still part of the learning process or are we missing something? Suggestions ??

Feeding the Quack Quacks

I told Ethan we would go feed the ducks Saturday and he loved it. He would throw bread to the ducks and then eat a few bites himself. Thankfully he didn't fall in but he scared me a few times chasing the ducks and birds back into the water!

Update on the House

We finally have a closing date!!! August 28th. We have waited for this day for 9 long months and can't wait to get out of this rental house and into our own home. It will be a busy few weeks as my 29th birthday is the day before our walk through and we move right before Ethan's 3rd birthday, Jeremy's 34th birthday and family coming into town.

Our 4th of July

We had a great weekend. Thursday we went to Amazing Jakes and Ethan went bowling for the first time. He almost beat Jeremy!! I won of course. Jeremy blames his loss on the lack of air conditioning in the building.

On Friday, we went to Dan and Krista's. We went swimming, played cards, ate and went to see the fireworks. They didn't end up starting until 10. By then, Ethan was ready for bed and he screamed the entire way back to Krista's and then all the way home. He finally stopped about a block from the house when he passed out for the night.

Family Night-sorta

Ethan and I went to see this:


While Jeremy went to see this:


We went as a family the night Kung Fu Panda came out but Ethan fell asleep about 15 minutes into the movie so we had to go see it again. Jeremy went to see the Hulk. I owed it to him as I scrapped the side of my car against a concrete pole at work today and he was kinda mad at me. Oh well, we can get it fixed at the same time they fix the side runner I scrapped on a metal pole driving into the parking garage at work. Hey, those are the only two things I have done to that car in 5 years so I think it is a pretty good track record.

Ethan played on the toys and ran through the water at the San Tan mall while we waited for Jeremy's movie to get over. I would have taken pictures but Ethan threw this 6 month old phone into the pool at grandma's house the other day. Thankfully, Jeremy can get me a replacement for free. Thanks Verizon.

We finished off the night with a butterscotch dipped cone from DQ. Go see Kung Fu Panda!! We will definitely be buying it when it comes out on DVD.

Happy Father's Day Jeremy

I have to post today because tomorrow I will be waiting hand and foot on my husband.
Jeremy is a great father to Ethan. Ethan loves to do whatever dad is doing especially if it has to do with the jeep. Jeremy took Ethan on his first off-road trip a few months ago and Ethan (and Jeremy) loved it. Ethan is his little buddy. Happy Father's Day Jeremy!! Ethan and I love you and appreciate all you do for our family! Have a fun and relaxing day!
