Potty training Chloe


Please Help!!! I am attempting once again to potty train Chloe. This time has gone better than the other times.......still not there yet though. Any suggestions? I ask/make her go and sit on the potty every 1-2 hours. But it doesn't feel like she knows when she needs to go. I just thought that this picture was priceless.

Austin is #1

My Baby is ONE!!! It is crazy that a year is gone by this quickly. Austin is such a little joy and blessing to us. Austin can now crawl and cruise everywhere. He is soo fast. He can say momma, dada, vroom (whenever he sees or hears a real or toy truck). He still is a momma's boy, but now that he is mobile, I don't have to hold him all the time (good for my back). My little boy is still little, barely 18 pounds, but the doctor isn't as concerned as before since his growth chart is on the rise. I just keep telling all these doctors, look at me and Shawn. Oh well. He loves to play with his sister's kitchen and watch Baby/Little Einstein. If you have seen these shows, Austin pats right along with the characters on it to help Rocket. So cute. We celebrated his b-day a day early, because all of my family was here. It was a tough day, due to it being my dad's birthday. So I was glad that we were all together. As you can tell by the pictures below, Austin LOVES chocolate. I love my baby!

Wisdom Teeth

I won't gross you out with a picture, cuz they were kinda yucky looking. But I had the great pleasure :( of getting all 4 of my wisdom teeth ripped out of my face 2 weeks ago. I should have done it alot sooner. But as with anything, every dentist has their own theory on when teeth should come out. But it was nice, because this doctor gave me steroids (so I wouldn't swell) before and after the procedure, very nice pain drugs, and a antibiotic. Which I guess not all doctors do. But it still sucked, I was cursed with my dad's big teeth. And so the dentist did have to cut one of the bottom ones out. And to top it off, I got dry socket. Which is when the clot falls out before it is suppose to and so your bone is exposed. All it really means is that it hurts and needs to be packed until it heals. So I am on a first name basis with all the staff at the dentist office since I have to go in so much. Oh well. At least it is one less thing on my to-do list.
