Memories...

I found some pictures I had and I just can't believe how he's grown!

Potty training

While Will was at my mom's house she bought him his own potty. We just had a seat that we put on our toilet but it seems he likes this better. He has gone on it quite a few times and thinks because it's his own it's pretty cool. So I have a new strategy now. Whenever he is at home, he's in underwear. So after work I take him to use the potty and then put them on. He only seems to want to go on the potty if you say you are going to, which with me being pregnant works out nicely. I'm going every 5 minutes these days. So I will go and he'll go, then we wash our hands together. He did have one accident last night and hasn't gone poop yet but it's only a matter of time! I'm so hoping he'll be out of diapers by the time Gabby is born. His best buddy at daycare Kyle, is toally potty trained now and wears underwear to daycare, so I'm hoping that will help with his motivation. Crossing my fingers!

Over the river and through the woods...

Memorial day weekend we went to my parents house to paint our kitchen cabinets. Will had so much fun! He couldn't get enough of playing outside, riding bikes, you name it. We decided that on Monday we would head home and he'd stay behind so Neil and I could paint the bases of the cabinet in peace. I was worried that he'd get homesick but boy was I wrong!

He rode grandpa's tractors a few times, played outside on the slip and slide, went to a party at Uncle Tom's, went to the store with Grandma. And we heard all about it when we'd call him at night. We would get about a 20 second summary of his day before he quickly said "I love you, bye!" and took off to play again. I like to think that he really missed me but he didn't want to tell me to spare my feelings. Yeah right.

Here are pics of the kitchen before and after:
