Long time, no post :-)

Ryan and I goofing around before dinner tonight. (Yes, I know- I am a pale face!!!!)
Sadie and her mama! She was such a snuggler tonight!
Cobe and his friend Ethan goofing off at dinner.
Brooks looked adorable today, but for some reason, he would NOT let me take his picture, so I had to trick him and sneak this one.
Sadie is VERY interested in going on the potty. She is only 18 months, so I don't know how much to push her. Cobe was just over 2 and Brooks was just over 3 when they were potty trained, but she begs to go on the potty. I guess it can't hurt to let her try. She had just pooped in her diaper and she immediately lets us know that she wants her dirty diaper off. She leads me to the potty and sits. She actually pushes and pushes, but so far, she has always already just done her business so she is pushing for nothing. Boy does she think she is big stuff though!

As I am typing this, I am listening to rumbling of thunder so I better make it short. I feel MUCH better today. Monday I felt horrible and yesterday I felt horrible. I woke up yesterday with a pulled muscle in my side as well as the cold, so it was not a good day. As the day went on, my side/back felt better. I still have a cold today, but didn't feel bad at all.

We have a busy weekend.. again. Tomorrow night is Cobe's school carnival so I am going to take the boys. Ryan works so he won't get home in time. Sadie is going to stay home as well because she'd be too much work while I am trying to help the boys play games. Cobe is then spending the night with a friend after the carnival. He has baseball practice bright and early Sat. a.m. so we'll head to that. Saturday night the Boeve girls are spending the night and we are having a cook-out with the Onstotts. I hope the weather holds up b/c it will be much better if the kids can play outside/eat outside. I am sick of this rain anyway!!! Cobe was supposed to have baseball tonight but it got canceled due to the rain. Ryan took the boys shopping. They hit Dunham's and both boys got new baseball cleats. No, Brooks doesn't need them at all, but he feels like he needs to be just like his big brother. They hit Famous Footwear and Barnes and Noble as well. It was nice for them to have a guy's outing while Sis and I stayed home and had girls' night! "-) Sunday morning I teach Sunday school again. I traded for the next week because we want to go up to the cottage next Saturday to pack up some stuff to bring home for our neighborhood garage sale on May 18th. We'll spend the night so we won't be home for me to teach next week. Mary Jo is having the boys spend the night next Friday night with Justin and Jake, and Lisa offered to have Sadie spend the night, so Ryan and I will get to go out and have 24 hours of freedom! We'll head up to the cottage on Saturday after rounding them all back up.
I am missing Survivor as I type this, so I am going to cut it off. I will update again soon!

Those are such cute pics girl! Totally awesome that Sadie wants to go potty. Eva started wanting to go on the potty around that age too. She's not potty trained yet, but we're working on it. Yesterday she walked into the bathroom, grabbed her stool-turned on the light-pushed her stool to the toilet-took off her pants and diaper-put her potty seat on the toilet-and then climbed up onto the toilet and went potty. So, I think we're finally getting there...lol :) It would be nice if she was potty trained by her 2nd birthday!!

Anyway, you have a great weekend!!
