Dallas is doing AWESOME with his potty training. He is doing great at home during the day and I have even ventured out of the house with him wearing big boy underwears and he has done great! We are still working on the #2 business but I think it is safe to say he is pretty potty trained on the #1. I can't even believe it and I am sooooo proud of him! He got a bug bit on his leg and I had to take him into the doctor because it got really swollen. He got some meds and it seems to be doing better now. He is talking and talking all day long and I have even started to long for the days when things were quiet.
Phoebe is doing awesome too. She is 7 months old now and that just boggles my mind. She has started eating solids better so I am relieved. I had her weighed when I took D to the doctor and she still is only 13lbs 10oz. Still a tiny peanut. Dallas weighed more than that at 4 months. I think she is teething because she is a bit fussy at times. Her sleep is still horrible but I just pray it gets better with time. I told my mom yesterday that when she is a teenager I am going to set my alarm and wake her up every hour on the hour for two weeks straight and see how she likes it. The other morning I woke up and I was so happy because she had only woke up four times. Isn't that crazy? I thought that was a great night of sleep. I am envious of all those that have babies that sleep longer than 2 hours. What I wouldn't give for 3 hours of straight sleep. . .
I am doing pretty good too. I just sold a bunch of the kids old things at a consignment sale in my town and made $290. I was so happy because I put alot of effort into getting the clothes prepped, priced and tagged and it really paid off. I can't wait to get my check and get the kids a few more items for fall.
Daddy is doing good too. He is working alot but we are so thankful that he has a job that pays us well and keeps us in a good life style. He makes alot of sacrifices for us and I don't know what I would do without his love and support. He is so patient with me and the children and never brings his hard days home to us. We are both anxiously waiting to hear where our next assingment is going to be. We talk often and dream of our next little home and it is just killing us that we won't know until next year sometime. I think we both have it set in our minds that we are going to WA but the chances are pretty slim. I just know we will make our next place home, no matter where it is.
Sorry I have been slacking on the pics lately. I realized that I hadn't even taken pics in over a week so I snapped some in the past day or two so I could post some.
Could this boy be any sweeter?
This girl just cracks me up, she ooozes with her crazy personality.
I got Dallas this stick horse at the consignment sale and he named him Cactus, just like his friend Gracie's rocking horse. He really likes to ride him around and say HEEEE HAWWWW, instead of yeee haw!
Phoebe is still crawling around on her tummy and Dallas likes to get next to her and crawl along with her. Sometimes he gets ahead of her and calls back to her, "Come on Beebers, lets go!" It is really sweet.
A rare picture of the four of us. Bonus, Dallas is even smiling!
Dallas got his hair cut this week. Daddy dared me to cut it really short but I couldn't do it. The stylist said that he has so many cowlicks that it has to be long or really, really short and I just couldn't do that.
Playing together pretty good. I hope they both become good sharers.
