Long Weekend

Ryan is not totally enjoying his new duties. One of his supervisees got into trouble and has to work extra duty, which includes 12 hours shifts 7 days a week. If no one is there, Ryan has to be there to watch over him. So Ryan worked 6-6 yesterday and 6-??? today. He was supposed to be home at 6, but there is a wind advisory so he had to stay to pull everything inside. Everyone he called did not answer so it's him and his trainee guy.

Natalie has been a bear all weekend. Partly because Daddy is not around. Partly because she may be teething her last teeth or still having an ear issue. Partly because Mommy is worn out from having her from wake up to bed time for the last 7 days. Not looking forward to the next five. I hope Friday comes quickly!

We just hung around most of the weekend. We tried working on some potty training. She went twice on the potty, twice on the floor, once in her pants and then I gave up for the day. It's very exhausting. We went to church on Sunday morning, hung out with Sondra and Maddie during the afternoon, and went to a BBQ and served in the preschool room at the night service.

Here are some pics of Natalie modeling a new dress and bows!




And GET THIS CAMERA OFF OF ME!!!

LOVE the dress. I need to make one of those for my BIG girls! Hope you're feeling better. And remember, when/if you go for injections at Pmouth and I am not already down there, you can bring N here if you want. :)

That dress is very cute. I love seeing her model it!

Too cute. Keep your head up on the potty training. I know that it's a huge deal. But things will turn around.

The dress is adorable! Want to hook me up with one for Caitlin? Also, we need to go fabric shopping soon! Sorry the weekend was rough! Now that I am home, just give me a call if you need a break from Nat. She is always welcome here!

She is gorgeous in her new dress! And what an advanced kiddo to be potty training now (I guess that's just another thing girls do before boys). I also heard that cloth diapers helps them train earlier (weren't you using those?) We already had trouble with MJ regressing on his potty training once Joey was born, so I think we'll just wait until a few months after Little T arrives for Joey to start.
