First Day of Preschool!

Today was Brycen's first day of preschool. He was a little nervous about it and when I dropped him off he cried. Even Leah cried and kept asking where her brother was. It made me so sad. But his teacher is an awesome lady in our ward and I know he will love it.

It's a...

BOY!! We had an ultrasound today and everything looked great. We are so excited to have another boy. Although, Brycen was a little upset that it wasn't another sister and that there weren't three babies in mommy's tummy. I'm glad it's just one.

Announcement!

Baby #3 will be joining our family in February 2010!!

We got to hear the heart beat last week and we have an ultrasound in 2 weeks. We are so excited to add another baby to our family!!

Potty Training

After Brycen's birthday we decided to give potty training another try. We had tried a few months earlier but he was definitely not ready so we took a break. I wasn't expecting much from him but he surprised us. Something clicked in those months while we took a break and he has done awesome! It has only been two weeks but he is now in underwear full time and has only had a few accidents. He even sleeps all night and wakes up dry. It feels so weird to only have one child in diapers now. I never thought this day would come.

Yesterday, he just wanted to sit on the potty and play with his toys. He stayed there for about an hour. Silly boy!

Brycen's 3rd Birthday

Brycen turned 3 on July 6. He got to have two parties. One in Prescott with Jeff's family while we were there for the Fourth of July and then one with my family after we got home. He got his beloved Geo Trax that he had been asking for for at least 6 months. He has played with them everyday since and never wants to put them down. They really are an awesome toy.

He had his 3 year checkup and he is 35 lbs and 44 inches tall!! He is way off the charts for height just like his daddy.

I can't believe my baby is 3!!

Geo Trax!

Happy Father's Day!

Leah's Bad Day

We always knew that Leah was going to be our first child to send us to the ER or urgent care and that finally happened this week.

Leah was playing in the backyard and she tripped and fell face first into the rocks. I immediately picked her up and she had a few scrapes on her face and I didn't think it was that bad until I saw a small shadow in the corner of her eye. At first I thought it really was just a shadow and then I realized, as it got bigger, that her eye was filling with blood. We rushed her to urgent care where they checked her out and said that they didn't see any serious damage but they referred us to an opthalmologist so they could check to be sure. We took her the next morning where they dilated her pupils to make sure there was no permanent damage. They said she was very lucky that she didn't have more serious damage. They diagnosed her with a sub conjunctival hemorrhage and told us that it would heal within two weeks. They said it looks a lot worse than it actually is but it still looks terrible. Poor baby!
