I'm a big kid now

We have been in Chapel Hill this month while Elisha does a rotation up at the hospital. They have rented us a duplex and I thought it would be a great time to potty train. We started Tuesday the 13th, going about every half hour. He did great only having a few accidents. Day two was terrible he refused to get on the potty and did not want any treats for going. I was ready to give up. I got a pep talk from Rebecca who said day 3 would be better, I held onto that and kept going. I thought he was never going to get it. Day 3 was impressive he woke up and told me he had to go. He was a pro. He let me know the whole day when he had to go. By day 4 we were out and about shopping and no accidents. I am glad I stuck with it! It's been great not having to change his diapers!! Great job Ethan!!!

This was the morning of day 3, he was so excited

This was his liquid of choice.

4th of July

We had a great 4th of July weekend with some friends of ours, that included boating, 2 firework shows and one cute little girl throwing a camera off the dock and into the water. Thanks to Randy for fishing it out of the of the lake. Of course the camera was no good, but I was able to retrieve the pictures from the memory card! Ethan did not really enjoy the fireworks, he kept his head burried in Elisha's chest. Aliana didn't like them much either, she let out a scream every time one went off. Hopefully they will enjoy them next year.
