Carter has something to say . . .

I started to go potty on the big potty recently. I have only had 2 accidents in the last 5 days. I get a sucker when I go potty  . . . and kisses from Mommy of course!

(I pretend those kisses get annoying sometimes.)

I try really hard to humor my mom, she's just really excited about this potty thing.

I have to say it works out pretty good. I go potty, get a treat, wear awesome Thomas the train undies and she's only has to change Camden's diapers now.

Yeah us!

Mommy wow! I'm a big kid now!

Enough said.

Did I marry Superman?

I don't know about you but around here, Superman doesn't need a cape . . . 

just a vacuum in one hand, a kid in the other

 and he's MY HERO.

Happy Anniversary to Us!

On our actual anniversary, Jeff took me out to dinner at one of our favorite places.

The Melting Pot.

With our favorite couple, Mike and Amanda.

We love them for encouraging us in a happy healthy marriage.

24 hour Anniversary Trip

While my parents were in town, we snuck away for our 8 year anniversary to our favorite spot.

Dana Point, CA

The Blue Lantern Inn.

Last time we were here, I was 3 months pregnant with Camden.

The view from our room.

A walk on the Beach in Laguna

A bike ride along the coast

The many faces of a happy couple . . . 

Fun with Grammy and Papa

Boulder City Train Ride

Saturday, we went on a train ride with my parents.

Carter waited very patiently,

But it's kind of depressing waiting  . . .

Then the conductor yells, "ALL ABOARD!" and the smiles come out,

It was a prefect day for a train ride.

Dinner with the Andersons

My parents were in town Thursday through Monday, so we had Mike and Amanda over for a BBQ to start the weekend off right. 

Nora scootin' around and under.

Dane played Guitar.

Nora smiled

Mikey told really interesting stories . . . and Nora copied him.

and there they are again. They have the same expressions in this picture too.

Amanda was here but she's just too pretty for the camera.

Getting ready for Summer

I know it's getting close to good weather when Cam wants to where his "hot hot" (hat hat) outside.

And Carter disappears first thing n the morning to "enjoy the rocking chair" with my ipod.

The Hazards of Wedding Planning.

A couple weeks ago this was the condition of my bedroom while I feverishly made table markers for Kari's wedding. I am posting this to remind myself that moss and carpet do not mix. . . . and no more wedding planning at 2:00am.
