Wow! We need to catch up!!!!

Well Jodie informed me a few days ago that I haven't "blogged" in over a month!!! A lot has happened since then...first of all, Garrett turned 3! Yay! He still isn't pottied trained but as of a couple days ago we have made some small steps towards our goal! He is finally "trying" to potty! He used to not even step foot in the bathroom, but I had to get a little crazy with the creativity to get him in there! We put his bathtoy fishy in the toliet and said if you hit him with your pee he will spit out an M&M. We all know that is crazy, but he is at least trying now! Booty camp is this weekend at Nana and Papa's! Maybe with running around in underwear will help him know exactly when he is going! Also maybe a few bribes with the waverunner will help! I guess I'll have to let yall know soon!

Our next new thing since the last blog...Landon is sitting up on his own and eating some foods! He has loved his peas, sweet potatoes, carrots, bananas and pears! He is a big eater just like Garrett! Landon is such a great baby! He is so content and happy and loves to be kissed on! What a blessing he is to have in our family! He is also very very close to crawling! He is at the rocking back and forth on his hands and knees stage!

Any day now my sister is going to have a baby! We are just waiting for that call to tell us he's coming! Even Garrett has been talking about it! He knows that when Chase gets here he gets to play with Jaelyn!

Yesterday the boys and I went to the strawberry patch for the first time! We had a blast! It was a last minute thing from the Chiropractor that we decided so I didn't have my camera. Garrett and I picked a quart full while Landon got a few sun rays in the stroller! After the strawberry patch we did the usual Walmart run and then took our naps...not a very long one! Then off to the photographer for pictures! Hopefully we got some good ones of the boys together! Not too easy to do...let me tell ya. Daddy met us down on Dickson street and we all went out to eat at Common Grounds. A very big day for us...we made it though! Hopefully we will have pictures soon to share with all of you!

Today we have spent the day outside! Man, the boys LOVE outside! We went out at 8:30 am and went in for naps at 1:15pm. We got some good sun! Garrett and Landon wanted a wagon ride so we did that...round and round the neighborhood!

I think we are up to date now! I hope this month I can be a little better at keeping the family posted on our events! Have a great day!
