10 on WEDNESDAY
1.Yeah, I know, it's been a while AGAIN. This momma has been busy!
2. The biggest news that everybody has missed is that Chase is potty trained! He has been in underwear for going on 4 weeks now! It literally took him 1/2 day to get potty trained. We had been in pull-ups for a while and he would go in the potty at school, but not at home, and would never tell anybody when he needed to go potty. He would just tell us when he had already gone. So one Sunday I decided he was going to wear underwear and that was that. He did not like the idea after his first accident, but he only had like 3 more accidents after that. He ended up going to Grandma's at lunchtime and spent the rest of the day there in a pull-up, but come Monday morning I put him in underwear and sent him to school. It's been smooth sailing since! He's like that with everything. With crawling, he just got up one day and took off crawling. He never got up on his hands and knees prior to that. With walking, he never took a step or two to practice. He just got up one day and took off. And now with potty training. I am so proud of him!!
3. More big news is that Colton has been sitting up for a couple weeks now and he loves it. Chase loves it too. They can sit and play together now and it is so cute to watch.
4. Colton is saying Mama and Dada like crazy and just jabbering away. He pulled a Chase. He never had the baby jargon, just hummed, and then one day he just started babbling like crazy.
5. MORE big news....Chase turns 3 tomorrow!!! I can't believe it. I'm having a hard time with it. I was putting together a photomontage of this last year and I started crying. Where has the time gone?
6. Also tomorrow is our 4 year wedding anniversary! We have no Anniversary plans as of right now, will probably wait until next weekend when the Birthday excitement has passed.
7. Chase's party is on Sunday. He wanted to have his party at home this year. Just a small affair of family and a couple of close friends. I'm attempting to make him a Lightning McQueen cake. TOnight we are making Lightning McQueen cupcakes for him to take to school. He is so excited about that! In fact, we had tears this morning because he thought today was the day to take them and was heartbroken when I told him it was tomorrrow.
8. I was supposed to go back to the Dermatologist yesterday to have a section of the skin on my left leg cut out, but had to reschedule due to a meeting at work. So that isn't being done until June 6th now. Thank goodness! I am dreading it. I have never had my skin cut and then stitched (well, besides childbirth).
9. Vacation is just a little more than a month away. It's going to be expensive but I think we really need this vacation. We are going to be away from Colton for a whole week, and I am really sad about that, but as long as he doesn't have any major milestones during that week like crawling or a first tooth, then I will survive.
10. I almost cracked yesterday and got a HUGE cheeseburger with a HUGE bun on it. I was THIS close. But then I had to remind myself how sick I could possibly get if I did, so I didn't get it. But man it would have tasted so good!! But I will be eating some donuts up on Pikes Peak next month. Nothing will stand in my way then.
