In general, we're just doing our thing and enjoying summer! Nate is working and being employee extraordinaire.
I'm still working on becoming a real estate agent. I stink at test taking. Always have, so the last little bit of this process where I have to take and pass a bazillion tests is starting to get old. I'm making progress, but when you stink at testing plus you're out of practice, it can be difficult. If only I could just skip this part!
Henry is just busy growing up. We started potty training last month. We've now progressed to minimal accidents at home, occasional accidents outside (why would you stop playing long enough to go to the bathroom?), and knowing the location and quickest route to every restroom at all of the stores we even occasionally visit. I think today was our first accident free church block and it didn't involve me leaving primary every 30 seconds to pry him out of Nursery to visit the restroom! Go Henry!! Henry's been up to other fun stuff, but his birthday is coming up and I'll save it for then.
Due to the slow and painful death of our camera, I don't have many pictures from the last couple of months. It's not totally dead, but IF it doesn't shut off when you push the picture taking button, the display goes black so it's a surprise what comes out.
Here is what I do have pictures of. Don't worry. There really aren't many.
Sorry for the poor quality.Moving toddler + dumb camera = this picture
I made that giant ruler! It's a growth chart that looks like an old wooden ruler. Now, if we ever move, we don't have to leave kids measurements in a door frame. I think it's darker in the picture than in real life.
I just thought that was funny. He walked around like that for a while that day. It was entertaining. You can see his training potty in the background. He picked it out and it sat in our kitchen until this past week. It makes sounds when you potty in it.
I made this too! It's car seat liner with a rubbery table cloth bottom to keep Henry's car seat from stinking up our car if he has an accident while we're on the road. I just take it out, put the other one in and wash the wet one.
We went camping in Idaho last weekend! Mama was up there, taking Chelsie back to school. This is the only picture we got because of our sad camera, but I think it's a sweet one. G.G. is reading Henry his new truck book. (Note the teeny bit of yellow under the blue blanket at the head of the bed. That is one of a few of Henry's trucks that he felt needed to be nearby while he slept).
