What a Week!

Two Thumbs Up For Our Picnic

Cheers!

I'm Not Too Sure About This Squash

And All I Had To Do Was Go Poopy!

I Love My New Playground!

It has been quite an eventful week for us! We reached some major milestones and had some fun while we were at it!

1) Andrew is finally going poopy in his big boy potty! YEAH!!!! Andrew received a Little Einsteins toy he picked out at the store for doing so. It was his favorite toy, and this was his incentive for taking the next step. It still took 2-3 weeks of staring at it on the counter and discussing how he got it for him to do so though.

For those of you who have been through this you can relate and sympathize...for those of you who have not yet experienced this - then you will be able to relate and understand once you get there...and for those of you who don't want kids - thank your lucky stars that you do not have to endure the potty training experience!

2) Landon rolled over! He has been rolling from his back to his sides for quite some time now...but he finally made it all the way over to his tummy! It seems like time is flying by when it comes to Landon...again the cliche proves true that your kids grow up WAY TOO FAST!!!

3) Landon had his 4 month check up this week. He is healthy and growing like a weed! He is now weighing in at 15 lbs. 14 oz. and is 24 1/2 in. long! He also had 4 shots which he did not appreciate at all...neither did Mommy!

4) Landon got clearance to start trying/eating veggies! We can finally add a little flavor to that rice cereal! First veggie was squash. He hated it at first...in fact he gagged so hard that he spit up his rice cereal...he learned to like it more and more as the days progressed. This morning was his first taste of green beans and he tolerated those well.

5) We finally got a little playground for our backyard. Cory picked it up on Tuesday and put it together that night. Andrew loves it and we have had lots of fun on it already. It's so nice to have something for the kids to climb around and play on in our yard!

6) We went for another family picnic last weekend. It was fun...but it was HOT!!! In fact, it was too hot to do much of anything after we ate. We tried to play in the park, however all of the equipment was burning Andrew's legs since they had been baking in the sun throughout the morning. It was worth the effort, however next time we will wait until it starts to cool down a little bit!

Well - I think that's it for this week!
Until next time...
