Day 354

Happy Sunday!  Today is the end of a long weekend.  One filled with lots of potty accidents, but hopefully we can gear up and get inspired to carry on in the battle of potty training this coming week!

We woke up this morning and had a slower morning than normal.  It is nice to wake up at a decent hour on Sunday and not feel so tired.  We all had breakfast, got dressed, and made it to church on time!  That hasn't happened in a while so it was indeed a happy moment!

I came home early with a pretty bad headache, so I got my Sunday nap in early today!  David took Ginger to puppy social today, so I spent time playing games and reading to the boys while he was gone.  It was a nice time with them.

Also while David was gone, we got to talk to our family back in Louisiana.  David talked to them when he got home.  It was nice to chat for about an hour with several people and get an update on what is going on.  Joel can't wait to get back there and bake cupcakes with Aunt Joyce!  He also asked if she could make a cape for Connor with a C instead of a J for him....such a sweet thoughtful thing to ask!

After the boy's naps, we met up with my parents for dinner.  The boys were GREAT at dinner tonight and I think we might have finally gotten over the hurdle of MOST of the terrible twos! Now if only I could get my almost 3 year old to potty train, life would be good lol.  Someday I hope Connor gets to read this blog and see what grief and what joy he brought to my life during his 2 years.  I LOVE the fact that I got to blog during his 2 yr old phase of life!

After dinner, we came home and got the boys mostly ready for bed....doing that and THEN doing Skype with my in-laws is far less stressful.  They can act so badly when we Skype and I feel so bad for my in-laws that they have to deal with two crazies that they are trying to ask questions and talk to!  They were pretty good at the end and Connor even said a very sweet goodbye, so I will take it!

Well, off to bed now!  Looking forward to tomorrow and hoping this next week is far slower than the previous week.  Got to get the bathtub ordered so it gets installed...I want my bathroom back! LOL  Have a great night and I look forward to the 10 day count down of The Happy Challenge Blog beginning tomorrow!
