flying late...

Don't you just love those nights when your husband doesn't come home until after you put the kids to bed??? Well actully mine came home just in time to give Eric a bath, so I guess I really don't have a lot of room to complain?! Anyway, Erika's husband was flying late last night too, so Eric and I went to have dinner with her and Reese. Eric always has a good time with Reese, they play so well together! And of course it is really nice to be able to have adult conversation! Anyway, the kids played with playdough, played with some toys, then moved outside to the water table. As you can imagine they were soaking wet by the time they were done. We I just stripped them down to diapers before they went back inside, and that is just how they stayed for the rest of the night. So cute!!!

Let's play on the table, my mom won't mind I promise!!!

potty seat...

I can't say we are home free, far from it actually, but it is a start. Eric has been showing somewhat of an interest in going to the 'potty', so I finally went and bought him a potty seat. He LOVES it! He wants to play with it though more than he actually wants to sit and go to the bathroom! It is a process though, so we are just keeping our fingers crossed- and taking it slowly! Our goal is to have him potty trained (like I said keeping our fingers crossed) by February. Why that date you ask??? Because we will be adding another diaper wearing child to our family by then, and we would love to have only one in diapers at a time! Yes, I am pregnant, and very excited!!! I haven't had any real sickness, and since I am just about 13 weeks, hopefully I won't get any!!! Eric touches my belly and says 'baby', but since I'm not really showing yet, he has no idea what he is talking about- but it is still cute!!! Not only does he not realize what he is talking about, he has no idea what he is in for!!!
Go Diego Go!!!
Love this potty seat!!!

a long time...



We are back from Pittsburgh! We had a fantastic time, it was really hard to leave! But we were so excited to come home to John too! He was really busy the whole time we were gone with an exercise at work, so we went at a pretty good time- we wouldn't have been able to spend any time with John anyway! Well while we were home, we did soooo much! We went to Kennywood- an amusement park- with Katie and Jackson ( yes they were in Pittsburgh too!:), went to the park a bunch, went to dinner with John's and my parents and Dawn and Dan, went to Dawn and Dan's reception- which was a lot of fun, went to the children's museum, went to dinner with a bunch of people, and was able to visit with a whole ton of people. We did just have a great time!!! Eric really enjoyed himself too.



We have been taking it slow and easy since we've been home. It has been really hot- so we have been swimming a lot! The last few days though have been great! It is a little cloudy and hasn't really gotten over 100ish- which is really nice!!! I have even gotten up the last 2 mornings (well Eric has gotten up God forsaken early so it motivated me!!!) and ran! It is a little harder to do- well a lot harder to do- with a stroller, so we walk some and run some, but at least I am out doing it!!!



Anyway, here are just a couple of pics since we have been home, check out Eric's website for Pittsburgh pics!
