4th of July
We got home from Idaho on July 3rd and we were super tired but mustered up enough energy to go to the Belton Parade. The kids thought it was ok but just ok. Erin, Eli, and I thought it was pretty boring and way to hot. They didn't even throw candy. I don't think we will be going again. The only cool thing that happened while we were there is that the KUTV News lady interviewed Jessica on what there plans were on the 4th of July and after she finished interviewing they filmed the kids waving around there flags. It was cool they were on T.V. but sad we didn't actually get to watch them on T.V.
Bell County Rodeo
Mmm our favorite- Cotton Candy! Eli bought us each a bag when we got there and then bought two more before we left because they were selling what was left for $1
He knows how to keep me happy!
Our first trip of the summer to Lions Junction water park. We only went twice this year! We will definately have to do better next year!
Caramel Popcorn Night
Splash Pad
I could not believe he actually stayed asleep in this cart after I carried him in from the car! My other two kids would never have done that! He must have been one sleepy boy!
This was just too hilarious! I forgot to put a swim diaper on Ben one day when he went out into our little Kiddy Pool! Haha now that is one wet diaper!
I won't have to be worrying about that anymore though because this boy is potty trained!
That's right! I had kept asking him if he wanted to wear his big boy undies and he kept saying no then one Sunday (July 22nd- so just under 3 years old) Eli and I told him if he used the potty all the time we would by him a rope and batman undies. That did it! He put them on and he as potty trained. I think he had three accidents within the first two days and has maybe had 3 total since. That is including at nights and two of those times he was on his way into the bathroom at night he just didn't make it on time. We are so proud of this boy! He loves his new purple rope (they didn't have blue) and he ended up picking out Mickey Mouse and Spider Man undies. I never thought potty training could be so easy!
Only one problem... you'll notice he does forget to put his pants back on once in a while after using the bathroom. :)
I am loving this grin!
and wind blown hair...
Just being cute. Sadie was all ready to go to church...I'm not sure what Bens deal is and why he isn't? Maybe I should get to work in the mornings....dress my kids perhaps.
She is always such a poser! I think I was taking a pic of something to text someone and she kept trying to jump into the pic and pose. I finally told her if she just let me take it I would get a picture of her after.
Then of course Ben wanted one :)
He doesn't look really happy in this picture but I still think it's quite cute
Enjoying a brownie at Mimi's house
Such wild hair. And I just have to add this boy LOVES to eat! Seriously! He is starting to get where he isn't totally into the baby food anymore. He will still eat it but definately prefers big kid food, or puffs, and snacks he can eat on his own.
He was mad I was taking pictures because he was just ready to eat. But seriously his hair...to cute. I did have it kindof spiked and gelled before his nap but this is how he woke up.
