So I told Jackson we would be potty training and he got SO excited to ride the potty train.... What a disappointing start- learning it isn't a train to ride on.
This has been a learning experience to say the least. The first two days were terrible and I cried quite a few times, but by the third day he caught on. We have had a few accidents but we are three weeks into it and he hasn't had an accident in a week and a half! YIPPIE!!!
All I can say is BRIBERY WORKS! He has done so well and is so proud of himself.
In other news- we had a great holiday season and have kept busy. We went and stayed with my sister's family in Colorado for Christmas, it was so nice to have Becca take care of us!
We went to Mr. Biggs on christmas eve and did mini golf, go karting, and laser tag.
Becca planned lots of fun stuff for us to do while we were there. This is sugar cookie decorating- Kevin sure was concentrating on his snowman...
Becca's tree, she had the whole house looking so festive and cute.
The highlight of the trip to Colorado was about an hour into the car ride... We squeezed the five of us into mom's mazda with me mom and Jack in the back. We were listening to a very funny book on CD (A Stephanie Plum novel by Janet Evanovich- Super funny) and mom started to laugh while drinking water and was coughing so hard she PUKED!!!! If you thought the car was squished before try sitting next to a 60 year old lady with vomit on herself. Don't fret- we pulled over and mom proceeded to strip straight to her garments on the median of the freeway to change... yeah....
A few weeks ago we went to the Circus. Jackson LOVES the circus, he plays it at home with his animals all the time- he of course is always the Ringmaster. Part way into it Jackson got really sick so we had to leave, but what we saw was really cool. During the clown act they came over to us and pulled Kevin into the center ring and made him do a skit with the clown (Kevin is ALWAYS being picked for this kind of stuff.) It was a lot of fun for me and Jackson to watch Daddy be in the circus. We may have found Kevin's true calling in life- How fun would that be- to be a traveling circus family? I'll think about it....
Starting to feel sick....
Totally miserable at this point. I was so sad for him- He seriously talked about going to the circus for weeks and then we had to leave early- so sad.
