Christian and Aunt Janet.

She doesn't usually let me take pictures, but I was able to snap one the other day when she put him to sleep!  xoxo!

Potty Trained!

The last weekend in May was a big weekend for E-man!  Ryan took off work (again) and sat at home exclusively focused on potty training Ethan.  This is our second attempt at this (last was over New Years), and I'm happy to report SUCCESS!!  It just clicked w/ this boy this time.  I think he just didn't have the interest before but in the last 5 months, he's become a big brother, and that means he is a big boy.  So away he went.  This time, we introduced a "gift" bag... with tons and tons of little presents that he got to pick out of everytime he: 1) told daddy he needed to go and 2) actually went.   He loved that.  He actually learned to manipulate the system pretty fast and only pee 1/2 of what needed to do, got up, got his present, and immediately said he needed to go again and got another... Pretty clever little dude.  I'm SO grateful to have him out of diapers and doing so well!  That was an enormous hurdle, and I'm glad it's over!

Happy Father's Day

Ryan is in Colorado today, having completed his Tough Mudder race, but we missed him anyway.  He's pretty awesome. 
And my daddy - well, he's pretty awesome too!
Happy Father's Day!!!

May Phone Dump

I'm taking a lot more pictures with my phone these days... which means there are way more Instagram pics, but the quality of the pics aren't as good...  Oh well.  I find myself in a hurry lately (imagine that!), or I have my hands full and my big ol' camera is too much for me to carry, so I tend to just use my phone... 
All that to say, there's a bunch of pics... and I didn't even post 5% of them!  :)
 I made it thru a WalMart trip with all three kids 
(not recommended, won't be repeating except in emergencies.)
