New Addiction!

My lovely husband has introduced me to the great world of Facebook! I have been asked by several people why I was not on Facebook yet and I would always tell them that I simply do not have the extra time. Well, that has changed, I think. Christian set up a page for me the other day and man oh man is that thing addicting! So, I think it is safe to say that I will find the extra time to visit that page quite often! I also promise to keep up with the blog and Picasa sites too. So, have no fear, things will not change with those sites. Wow, I am going to be busy. I guess being a mom to two little boys was not enough for me. I have added Facebook to my already overflowing plate!

1st "out of stater".

Evan met his first "out of stater" last week. Our cousin, Tim, came in to town for some business and stopped by to visit and meet our newest addition. It was a great time! Tim trys to stop in for a visit whenever he can when he comes to Michigan for business. We really enjoy seeing him and chatting for a bit. We can't wait to see him again come September! Evan will be meeting lots of "out of staters" in September and before that too!

Potty training is continuing to go well! Hunter uses the potty each and every night before he gets in the bathtub! Exciting! We are working on getting him to use it throughtout the day too. One step at a time! I did go out and buy lots of little surprises to give him once he starts using the potty on a more consistent basis. Hopefully, that will encourage him to continue with the training. But, for now, I am so happy that he is using the potty before bath time each night! Go Hunter!!!

For Daddy??

So we went to Nana's tonight while Katie went out with the girls. When we came home, Hunter had fully soaked his diaper in Nana's pool, so it came off. Then he tore to the bathroom...

Yes, he went potty on the toilet all by himself, without any help and without asking or being told!!!

Then - wait for it - he did it again just before bath!! Holy !@#$

So I called Katie (and there was suddenly a man at girls night out on the phone) and told her the great news! She went to Target after the restaurant and picked up some big boy undies for Hunter.

It starts. Was it for Daddy?

PS. Sorry no pics on this one...

Great Big Brother!

Hunter is a great big brother! He loves to help out with Evan each and every chance he gets. This morning he helped keep Evan calm while I was making Evan a bottle and then after our morning walk he gave Evan his pacifier! He is such a wonderful helper! I am so lucky to have him to help out.

June 22

This day marks 31 years and counting. Wow, I have done a lot in 31 years. However, what I am most proud of is the man I married and my two beautiful sons. Without them my life would not be as full as it is. So, thank you to my lovely family for making my 31st birthday special.

2 Kids

Wow, that is all I have to say about 2 kids. We are so done having kids. 2 is my max! I can guarantee that Christian feels the exact same way. We finally got one figured out and he is back to normal and sleeping well once again and now we have another one to try and figure out. Talk about work! The hour free time that I used to have while Hunter napped no longer exists. Evan has engulfed it big time! However, I do love having 2 sons. I can honestly say that our family is now complete.

On a different note, I want to take a moment to wish my husband a wonderful Father's Day! He truly deserves it! He is the best dad that I know and Hunter and Evan will totally agree with me. I could not have picked out a better dad for them if I tried. Christian is awesome as a dad! So, one last time, Happy Father's Day Christian!!!

Favorite Jeans!

Oh, the joys of pre-pregnancy clothes! It is almost like going shopping and discovering your favorite jeans all over again! I was able to wear them yesterday - just FIVE days after having Evan! That is amazing to me! Woo Hoo! I still have a little bit of baby weight to go but I should be done by the end of June or sooner. Now, if only I could get my chest to go back to its normal size I would be all set! That took forever after I had Hunter. Oh well. One of the many joys of motherhood!
