Snow

Well, the first signs of winter are here. I woke up this morning and let Harley outside and was surprised to see our yard covered in snow. Unfortunately we didn't get much time to play in the snow because we had to rush off to work. I did get a few pictures of the snow.

Missing Dad

I was going thru my summer vacation photos earlier this week (I know I'm really behind on things) and I found this photo that just made my heart melt. We went on vacation in Galveston this summer and my Dad was staying overnight nearby. We drove to Kemah to meet him for dinner and we snapped this photo on the boardwalk. I will treasure these memories forever.

New Post Coming Soon

I know I am really behind on blogging these days. I promise when things settle down I will write a new post.

Busy Summer

I realize it has been a while since I have posted. Summer finds us very busy this year. It started off with potty training that has been very successful. We find ourselves at the pool on most days and Jaden loves it. He wants to swim everyday. So I guess you can say we are all working on our tans. We also went to the Rascal Flatts & Darius Rucker concert. They were awesome. I really hope we can go again next year. And then there was the fourth of July. We had a great time with friends, eating hotdogs, swimming, and watching fireworks. Jaden had a great time and actually enjoyed the fireworks this year. Not so much last year. Well anyways, I hope this catches you up with what we have been up to. The next thing on our list is our trip to San Antonio & Galveston. Its going to be really hot but I hope we have a good time.

I will post pictures of our summer activities soon!

Potty Training

**** UPDATE **** Potty training is going surpisingly well.

Well its official. We are now potty training. It happened a little quicker than I was expecting but the girls at Jaden's daycare think he is ready. We have been doing pull ups for the last couple of days, but Jaden can't really tell the difference between diapers and pull-ups so today we are trying big boy underwear(and lots of extra clothes). I am really anxious to see how he does today. I guess I am going to be spending my long weekend potty training.

Eczema

Jaden with his "big band-aid"
Well after months of fighting eczema I finally gave in and took Jaden to the doctor expecting to get some miracle cream that would make it all go away. Instead the doctor suggested we try wet wrap therapy. This means I get to convince my 2 year old every night for 2 weeks that he gets to wear bandages on his hand while he sleeps. We also get to cover it with a sock. I thought this would be a big ordeal for Jaden but he did really well. Last night before he went to be we wrapped his hand with some wet gauze and then I let him pick out a colored sock to put over it. Once that was done we put a spiderman sticker on the sock to make it "cool". I was surprised he handled it so well and I am anxious to see how it goes tonight. I really hope this works because his poor little hand looks so bad. Anyways...I took pictures of Jaden with his "big band-aid" on and I will post them later.
