Potty Training!!!

Ok...so I've kind of had it with the parents that are like...oh it was so easy. It is not easy ok. Especially when your doing more than one at a time. I'm waiting for Trev to "get it" and meanwhile I think hey wait a minute I might be missing Amelia's "get it" window. So I'm doing both to see who "gets it" first. lol! Well that answer is...Neither. But I'll just keep trying til something happens.

So here they are in front of the tv cuz I couldn't get them to stay in the bathroom for very long. And with a cartoon on they will sit on those things for hours. Good idea right? No, not really when they get up after sitting there for an hour and pee on the floor right next to it. Ugh. Eventually this has to work. Right?

More birthday's! What a weekend!

I would first like to say that today is my moms birthday! Happy birthday Grandma!!! We love you!!

I really wish I was a better picture taker. Ty and I both just completely forget when it comes to the camera and when we finally remember we take one picture of everyone that's there at the moment and then the camera gets put down and that's it. If we remember at all. So of course I have no picture of my birthday. lol! I'm pretty sure some of the Archers(cousins)do tho.
So on the 26th, my birthday, this is what I did... Ty watched the kids while I went to the gym then had breakfast waiting when i returned home. Then we all got ready and he took me to lunch then shopping with the whole family. I got a new swimsuit and a few other things. Then my cousins had a movie marathon night planned so they also made it a birthday party for me. Britney made homemade pizza and cake and they sang and I blew out the candles. I haven't done that in years. It was so fun and awesome!!! Thank you everyone for a great birthday and the texts and facebook messages. It was one of the best birthdays I have ever had.
Now on the 27th we had more family gatherings with Matt & Heather Nelson stopping by and it was Mathew Jrs birthday. So we had more gatherings at a cupcake joint and then Jumping jacks! So much fun! Then my parents babysat while Ty and I went to AVATAR! What a great movie! But my brother in law Jake was right...if you've seen Dances with Wolves and Fern Gully then you've seen AVATAR. Lol! But it was still cool but we did get a little motion sick from the 3D.
Now Sunday the 28th, Amelia's birthday. We went to church and then came home and got ready for the party. All the cousins and family came over and we had a great time catching up and having hotdogs and cake! Thank you everyone for coming! It was a great time and Amelia had a blast! Love to you all! Here are some of the pictures I got from the party!
