More time together! We have had so many nights home together grilling dinner, going on walks, following Svea on her bike through the neighborhood, etc. I love lazy relaxing stress free summer days! I love being home with the kids!
Lunchtime workouts-Dan comes home at lunch time and we time it for right
when the kids go down for our naps. Then we motivate each other to get
a workout in. We've been doing the 30 Day Shred by Jillian Michaels.
We are always sweating by the end and breathing hard so hopefully it's
successful. It feels good to feel strong!
Kieran giving us big bear hugs and now has started to pat us on the
back. So cute! The fact that he says "mum" and actually associates it
with me. He has also done Dad too (Father's Day/how lucky) and I think
he gets what that means too! Dan was showing him his own image in the
mirror today and saying "baby" and Kieran would pat the mirror and say
bebe, bebe. It's fun that his language is starting to develop!
7 Full days of wearing big girl underwear! Svea made it the WHOLE week
with only one tiny accident! She peed in her underwear just a tiny bit,
but stopped herself and made it to the potty in time. She is so proud
of herself. We played outside and went to church twice this week in underwear. She just decided and that was that. Crossing fingers it continues! We have a potty whistle, she was getting chocolate chips
each time she went, but she's already forgetting about that, and if she
stays dry all day we give her a little toy or "potty treat". We made
blueberry/banana smoothies tonight after dinner and she asked, "Is that
my potty treat, Mommy"? It wasn't, but for staying dry a whole week we
are telling her we are taking her to the farm! "The animals not get me
there though," she told me at bath time tonight. We'll hopefully go
tomorrow and post pictures of course:)
A vacation coming soon for a whole week! Dan hasn't been to Mandan for the 4th in two years. We're excited to get back since we missed last year and spent it in the hospital trying to stop labor:) Hopefully we can relax! Bismarck friends, if you are reading this call, text, or sky write a message to Dan to get together. He really wants to, but his top priorities when he has a spare minute are to check football stuff, see the kids, and pee, but not in any particular order. I'm hoping we get to see our friends, but really hoping he can get together with some guys!!!
