You're my best girl!

This weekend we went to my parents house so we could paint the kitchen cabinet doors. Will had so much fun playing outside and with all of grandma's toys. We decided that he would stay there for the week so that we could go home and work on the base of the cabinets. I knew he'd have fun but I was dreading leaving him. It just made me sad at the thought of not having him with us. And I was worried that he would get upset at us leaving him. Boy was I wrong!

A little before we left I asked him for a hug. He gave me a big hug and said "you're my best girl". Awww! Seriously, as if I wasn't weepy enough already he has to go and say that to me?! When we finally did leave we told him that we were taking the cabinet doors home and that grandma would bring him home later. He gave us a hug and said "bye" and went back to playing. So he handled it really well. I on the other hand was crying by the time I hit the door.

Snake poop!!

So a couple of weeks ago we told Will that if he pooped in the potty it might look like a snake, like daddy's. LOL! So the other night Rhonda was over and said she was going poop. She wasn't really, she was just trying to get a Will break. He heard that and said "I want to go!". I took him upstairs and he sat on the toilet with a book. As he was looking through it I all of a sudden heard him poop! He did it twice. I was so excited. He got off the toilet and sure enough it looked like a snake. He was clapping and thought it was pretty cool. His dad got home right after that so we made him come upstairs so he could see. He even did it again yesterday, and once again it was his idea! Now I just have to get him to go pee and poop at the same time.

Great weekend!

We had a lot of fun this weekend.

On Saturday we met up with Ryan, Shannon and Nikki and went down to the Puyallup spring fair. Will went on two rides. At first he was reluctant, but once he was on he didn't want to get off. He threw a major fit when the rides ended! He had his first taste of cotton candy and saw a fire truck and lots of animals. He also wanted this big 3 foot inflatable hammer so we got one for him. Big mistake. He was on daddy's shoulders and started hitting people on the head as we walked by them! Luckily they were good humored about it. I have pictures below








On Sunday we went to church and for the first time Wlll sat in Sunday school by himself! It was my day to be with him, but I could just tell I was a distraction. So I said I had to go to the bathroom and snuck into bible study with daddy. He did great! Then during the service Neil took him down to the nursery and since his buddies Michael and Cameron were there he played andn daddy left. So we actually both sat through the sermon! Yay us!

on Monday (still the weekend for me since I don't work!) I took him to the park twice. It was such a nice day. He made friends both times and didn't want to leave. He always latches on to someone and follows them around and has a really good time. He's so social, which is funny becuase I don't think either Neil or I are.

No more diaper day update

Yeah, didn't go so great. Actually, it started out ok. He was wearning underwear and went pee on the potty twice. He did have a couple of accidents but it was no big deal. But we had a surprise visit from Sean and Amy and he got so busy playing with Ian that there was no way I was getting him back on the potty. Even Ian who is fully potty trained had an accident. Oh well, we'll try again!

No more diaper day!

I've been telling Will all week that Friday is No More Diaper day! I'll ask him what Friday is and he says "no more diaper day!". He knows that he will be wearing big boy underwear that day and we are going to give it a go and try the potty a lot more. I just felt like we hit a brick wall. He would go on the potty right before bath but not at any other time so I was looking to jumpstart things a bit. We'll see how it goes. I shall report next week!

WOW...

He really is my son! Eveyrone always says how much he looks like daddy, but now I have proof that he's mine too!

Appt. update

Had an appointment today and all went well. Heard the h/b and Dr. Stork said that according to my last u/s my due date was a week later, but there is a 7 day window of give or take so she was leaving it at August 5th.

I also gained 6 lbs!! Yikes. It's still only 8 lbs total but I didn't want to gain that much in one week. I guess I'll have to stop eating so much candy!
