New position

Promoted up to director at the center....what did I get myself into? :)

Reminiscing

One of the girls I work with is enjoying her 4th in Vegas. It has been too long since Greg and I have had an "actual" vacation but Vegas was our last one...Enjoy some of my reminiscing!

Some June Pics

Swings!

Watching the Father's Day Kick Ball game.

Contemplating what to do next....I'm sure it is something she shouldn't do!

Olivia LOVES it when we let her eat from an adult chair. She is still a little on the short side but she doesn't seem to mind.


Her poor cousin....

I can't believe that we are already in July and that Lu is already 18 months old! She had her checkup this week and checked in at 32" and 24lb 1oz. 50-55th percentile for everything. She is such an active (spirited as her great grandmother calls her!) child. This past week has been eventful as she has finally begun using the potty! Last night I think she even surprised herself when she made poo in the potty. She had such a confused look on her face. I don't know that these recent events will lead to a fully potty trained child any time soon but it is still a pretty cool milestone. Greg says that she does something huge every 9 months: Was born after 9 months, walked at 9 months, used the potty at 18 months. He was pretty bummed when I told him there really isn't too many more 'physical' achievements and that from now on they would be more educational and social ;) We are both excited for what God has in store for our sweetheart!

Happy 4th

It is an odd night around our household. I have been up by myself for about 2 hours now. Olivia is asleep. Greg is asleep. I sit here bored. Nothing is on tv (I guess they assume everyone would be out enjoying the 4th). All the laundry is done. The house is basically clean (all other cleaning may involve waking of sleeping people). I can hear the music from the bands playing at our local park. I would love to take a walk down there but I don't want to wake Greg to let him know where I am going and either way I don't think he would like it that I went down there 'by myself'. I wish I had motivation to do some of those extra things like sewing and sorting. It is strange that when you do have the time you don't want to do that stuff. Anyways....I sit and wait to hear the fireworks from my living room. I am sure if I open the shades in the living room I'll even be able to see some. I hope everyone has an enjoyable 4th...even if it is a little less traditional than most ;)
