Yes...we're alive. LOL

So anyway sorry i haven't been blogging lately. I have been reading everyone else's just not taking the time to write anything. Not much is going on with us. We are moved and fairly settled in at my sister's house and so far we are really enjoying living here. The boys are having a blast with Matthew and being able to pretty much be outside from sun up to sun down. They have been taking "tubbies" together (Matthew's word for baths) and having fun doing that.

Ethan is finally getting the hang of the potty training thing. Well kinda anyway. He does really good when we are inside and he needs to go pee but he doesn't tell us he needs to go potty outside until it's too late and then he has yet to go poop in the big boy potty. I am starting to get frustrated about the pooping thing. I don't know how to get him to go on the potty. I have tried telling him he will get more m&m's, my sister got him a big chocolate coin candy and told him he could have it when he goes on the big boy potty and I have done the "ewww, yucky, pooping in your underwear is so gross." But nothing is working so far. So if anyone has any tips, i would love some help. My sister said she just kept telling Matthew how gross it was and that poop went in the potty not in his underwear and after a few days he went on the big boy potty. Well we have been doing this for a week and he is still going poop in his underwear. So I don't know what to do.

Anyway, that is all I have for right now. We went camping for memorial day weekend so i will try to get pics of that up soon and will blog about it then. This weekend we are going to Kennewick for Karston's birthday so we are excited for that and then next week Thursday thru Sunday we are camping at Potholes State Park for my birthday with my mom and step dad and on Saturday we are attending a 10Th anniversary party for one of my best friends and I am really looking forward to that. So lots to look forward to. Will talk at you all later. TTFN
