Having Fun Together

The weather is changing like crazy and is keeping up to Idaho tradition. Last week was lucky to get to 70 degrees and this week we are up in the mid 80's...crazy. Tim has started school and we LOVE his new schedule. We are able to have dinner together every night and most mornings we enjoy breakfast as a family. We love having all the extra time and have been able to get so much done, as well as have so much time for relaxing and FUN. The backyard has been done for a few weeks so we are out there everyday and since we found a picnic table at a yard sale for $10 the kids LOVE eating lunch outside. Last week when it was colder Skylr and I made some chocolate chip cookies and Sky was all decked out in her backing gear and Loved helping. She has also been a big help picking the cherry tomatoes out of our garden...they were really late, but now we have to much to handle, so the other day Skylr and I picked about 5lbs of tomatoes...CRAZY...and there are still so many to pick. The other day Tim went up to Skylr's room to ask the kids to clean up, and this is what he found...those too are so funny together.

Last week we went to labor and delivery to check on Gavin...I have been getting a REALLY hard belly when I am up and about and then some pain in my lower abdomen, but the doctor said that Gavin and I are fine, but because of his size and position he is pushing on some tendents that make doing normal activity very uncomfortable. I have been taking it easy and wearing a belly support, which has helped a lot. We are starting to countdown until Gavin comes and are getting so excited. We are also excited that my mom will be quiting her job to stay home with Logan...she is really deserving of this and I can't wait to spend more time together and let the kids have fun as friends rather than siblings :) lol.

Tim's birthday is on Saturday 9/18 (he will be 27) and we plan to have a BBQ and then watch some BSU football at a friends...GO BOISE STATE BRONCOS!!!

Potty training update...Skylr has it down!!! She may have one accident every week or two, but very typical, Sky also manages to keep her diaper dry most days during nap and bed time and wants to go when she wakes up (I don't think she likes the wet diaper now that she knows what being dry is like). She has now decided to go #2 in the potty after having her first cold bath, she didn't like it and reminds us that she would rather go in the potty "no cold bath mommy, Skylr hot bath mommy". She catches on quick. Skylr is talking so well know and talks a lot, she is growing so fast. Sky is in 3t-4t clothes and wears a size 6 1/2-7 shoe, and has become quit the fashion expert. Skylr picks out most of her outfits and does a great job matching them, she just picks a color for that day and finds a top and bottom with that color :) it's fun to see her get dressed and decide on an outfit. She is such a girl...every morning i get up and make my bed after i get dressed and Skylr has decided to do the same thing...what a copy cat QT!!!
