Wow! It's been awhile

for me anyway. I know a lot of people don't blog as much as I do, but I do enjoy keeping my family informed and up-to-date on our lives.

Dilt, thanks for the comment! And I am sure people are wondering about our nicknames. Haha

Nothing much going on over here. Sunday we were STUCK inside all day during the blizzard. Church was even canceled. We couldn't have gone anywhere even if we wanted to- it was that bad out. Monday was a snow day and we were home again all day. Justin came over to play for awhile, and Cobe had a soccer game at 5:00, so we went to that (they won 11-2). Yesterday we went back to school/work, and I was actually glad. I usually love snow days, but I am about sick of them lately. At least I would like them spread out.

Today Sadie went to Presley's to play while Ryan and I met with our builder. She has been wearing panties for a few days now, and we made a big deal out of the fact that she can only wear diapers at night-night time. So she refuses to wear diapers anymore. She has done so well with her pee-peeing. She goes on the potty every time. She isn't quite as successful with the poo-poo, huh Kristen? She went in her pants at Kristen's this morning. I felt horrible, but at least it was contained to her pants. She has gone on the potty twice before, so I don't know why she isn't as quick to catch on to that part. Oh well- I'm just glad she is ready to give it a go. (even though it is much harder to be in a public place now- she has an aversion to public potties!)
I think girls are much more difficult- boys can go outside or in a bottle if we are in a bind- not true for girls. :-)

Our meeting with our builder was extremely successful! He gave us our final plans and our final price, both of which we are extremely happy with. A realtor is coming in the morning to go through our house and to put it back on the market. Yuck! Dreading that! I enjoyed having a break from showings ALL the time. We had a few by owner, but not many. Our house will be completed by the end of June, so I guess I at least know an end date to the madness. :-) We went to a parade home that our builder is building after our meeting, and seeing that brought back all of my excitement to build!!!!

Well, I am off to Wednesday night church. We haven't had it for the last 2 weeks due to snow, so this will be the first in awhile. I'll post again soon with weekend plans- got some fun stuff coming up!

I was starting to wonder when you would blog again, geesh, it took you forever! :)

Glad your meeting went well, I've been curious all day!

Sadie will catch on sooner or later, hopefully sooner for everyone's sake... poor Kristen! ;)

**Totally screwed the fisrt one up, it didn't sound so nice, very unintentionally!**

I'm glad that you blogged again. I was starting to get worried! What realty are you working with. It's so exciting for you to actually know when you will be done with all of this! Perfect timing too, you're out of school and have enough time to settle in before it starts again!

Wow! I can't believe Sadie is potty trained, that is great. I feel like I hardly see your kids when we're all cooped up inside. I'm hoping that will change as soon as the weather does!! Have a fun weekend!
