Please let it stick

So remember back in December how the littlest stinker was potty training, she caught on super quick and was totally potty trained? Well we went to Oregon for Christmas and she did great the whole drive there and the first day. But we were worried about accidents at other people's houses so we made the mistake to put her in pull ups. That led to her using them like diapers and this caused her to totally regress back to diapers full time.

My mom took Allison to Oregon last week for a week so I decided it was time to revisit the training with one less kid around. She was doing amazing until my mom came back with Allie. She then had 5 accidents in one morning and I, being pregnant, emotional and cranky, threw her back into a diaper the rest of the day and felt totally defeated. Luckily by the evening I came around to rational thinking and put her back into panties. She's been doing great and I'm seeing light at the end of the tunnel again.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, I hate potty training! If there was a place around here that offered a service to train your kids for you I'd totally put my kids in it and be willing to pay big bucks for it. So all you ladies out there who don't mind it, just know there are tons of other moms like me and you should start a business. You'd make a killing

Camera +No memory card = No Bueno!

Darren and I took a trip with just the two of us and brought our camera to take lots of fun pictures, only problem was I left my memory card in my computer at home instead of bringing it. We were staying at this amazing resort tucked away from everything and of course they didn't sell any memory cards at their gift shop.

















Luckily Darren's company was awesome and had old school prom style pictures for each night so we dressed up for those and still came home with 2 pictures of our trip. Too bad in one of them Darren's wearing a cowboy hat and gun holster and I'm wearing a boa and holding a gun (it was a western themed event) If I knew how to use our scanner I'd load them to give you guys a nice laugh but I don't know how.

I have to give a shout out to my mom and step dad for coming out here and watching our 3 kiddlets while we were gone though. It was an awesome weekend and it was nice of them to take on the challenge of all our kids. Sadly I only got one picture while they were here and it's this one of my mom with Eliza cramming herself into a comfy spot behind my mom. She likes to put herself into weird places and make you just deal with her being there.
