potty training and 7 mo preggers....who's idea was this???

Little man told me last week that he didn't want to wear his diapers anymore. SOOOO at 7 months pregnant I am beginning the process.....a very SLOOOOOOW process.  Yes, I would like to have him out of diapers before baby comes. Yes I potty trained child #1 while I was 8 mo preggers with pooh bear. But that was a loooong time ago and I had a lot more energy back then. Suddenly I sound so old?!

So we tried and he's had a few flukes and made some progress. But he just isn't getting it YET. So I will be patient and keep cleaning up the accidents in the meantime.

Pooh bear has been such and encouragement to him (and me). This is what I came into this morning  when I went to get new/clean supplies.


She's reading him a story while on the potty. How C.U.T.E!

Yes, she's not wearing any pants. She's going through an addiction to stripey pants. They've been dirty all week and in protest she decided since I would NOT let her wear dirty clothes she wasn't going to wear ANY! SIGH! Because its that warm in January in Ohio!

My little {BIG} fear

So here's my little confession: I have big fears and little fears. But lately one particularly has been plaguing me { AGAIN }. It is the fear of being forgotten, more so being { FORGETTABLE } and indivisible. I don't know what starts it or triggers it, but it can be as simple as an email offering to volunteer for something than not hearing a reply. I guess the last trigger was a group wide calendar was sent out with {every one's} birthday on it except mine. I know that is wasn't done on purpose but my birthday is a sensitive subject to me. Its always been forgotten. Its right around Labor day and the first week of school. So in the busyness its often overlooked. Or in the case of 6th grade its not even written on the calendar. Mrs. Brotherton I think I know when my birthday is...but she still made me go to the Principal's office for arguing with her and I came back successfully with a note that I was indeed correct about knowing my birthday. I digress... I was telli...

serving with a grateful heart

1 Peter 4:10 "Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms." This year my little gang of cheerios and I have been working on being intentional about serving. To be honest for a long time the excuses of having to many littles was beginning to wear thin. Now I have been looking for opportunities that my littles could easily accomplish. Yesterday, we attended a Lenten service at our church. It was a beautiful Prayer walk. We walked through stations, preparing our hearts for this season of Lent. It was a perfect activity for our family to do together. In the Lenten study package was The Names of God Bible reading challenge . I am really thrilled to focus in on the Names of God for this season. Preparing my heart for the Easter season. So today, the sanctuary needed cleaned. All the stations needed put back in the closets and offices that they were borrowed from. Little ...
