More potty training news.

Ok today is day six of Caleb's self Potty training. I am so excited that Caleb just decided to do this, he even did #2 again last night again all by himself. So i think I am going to get like 2 maybe three weeks that I will not have to buy diapers. Maybe God knew that we could only afford diapers for one. Oh I included a picture of Caleb wearing underwear on his head, he said it was his cool hat.

Our First picture of Sophia

Today we got the ultrasound pictures of our beautiful daughter. It is not the greatest picture but that is ok. If you look you can see her forehead, her eyes, nose, and the beginning of her lips. Her arm is covering her mouth. We were so excited, we can not wait to meet her. We are also looking forward to meeting the women ( our baby's mother and aunt) who have made this whole thing possible. Please continue to pray for Laura as she carries our baby and please lift us up as we go from 3 to....... 4 again.

Caleb is potty training himself !!!

OH the joys of parenting....I never new I could get so excited about poop in a potty, but I did. Caleb decided on Friday that he was big boy and he needed to wear big boy underwear. So I let him thinking that it would never last...I was very wrong. He has been wearing them ever since ( not that exact pair) and today he came and told me needed to hide ( which is code for #2) so I suggested that he hide on the potty. I left and came back to find him overjoyed to show me his surprise. I actually almost cried I was so excited..I danced around the bathroom and Caleb was so proud. I love being a mom.....it really is the simple things in life that are so exciting.

Here are some pictures from the fourth of July. Brads grandparents and Uncle were in from LA visiting. We actually celebrated the 4th at our house. Brad and his grandfather cooked ribs, hot dogs and hamburgers and the kids played on the back porch. After we ate we went swimming and had a great time. Then we watched fire works and Brad and Uncle Richie nearly set my house of fire.

Every Tuesday we go to play group. This week it was our turn to host it, we had it at Mimi and Poppi's pool. All of our Friends were there, the Himstedt's, the Hicks, the Pittman's, the St. Pierre's, we also had some friends who could not come. The kids all swam for about 2 hours then we had lunch and swam some more. Caleb and I were at the pool a total of 4.5 hours. Caleb was so tired when he went to bed, he did not get up till 9 am.

Swimming with Mimi and Poppi

This past weekend we had a little Spell Family get together. It has been a while since we all just had fun together. We had dinner and then we all went swimming. Caleb had a wonderful time. It was fun to see Caleb swimming with my parents he looked so much like Emily.

Caleb's Bicycle

This weekend Brad's mom found a really cute bicycle at a garage sale and bought it for Caleb. When she gave it to him he was so excited. He said "it's my big motorcycle" and he screamed with joy. I hope you enjoy these pictures as much as I enjoyed watching him.
