June 2011

This has been a fun, busy summer, so much so that I haven't really been blogging I guess.  We stayed busy with the kids summer movie deal at the Harkins near us, lots of doctor's appointments for me, going to the gym, and staying cool as much as possible.

In June we took a Wednesday-Sunday trip to visit Mike's mom in St. George.  This was about a week after starting potty training with Ethan (another thing that has kept our summer busy).  Here are some of the many faces of Ethan on a roadtrip:

 Notice the toilet that traveled with us so we could pull over if he needed to use it.  Through all of our road trips this summer, no accidents in the car!
 In St. George we were out for a walk and as Ethan walked along this spillway he slipped on moss and got covered in mud.  He was sad, but it was really funny too.

 Sweet sleeping.  Potty training really messed up Ethan's sleep routine, which has been hard on both of us.
 We felt like Ethan was stalled or regressing on progress, so Mike got him some jelly beans for going potty. We also got a jar and gave him a noodle (as opposed to marbles he could choke on) every time he stayed accident free all day or all night.  When it was full I would take him to the "water park", which means any of the many water featured parks in the area.  He loved this and has been doing great every since.
So that fills in the rest of June.
