Quick Update

I don't have my little photo card reader hooked into my computer here at my parent's house, so I am kind of boring and don't have pictures of the 4th of July or anything. I just thought that I would give you all a quick update of our lives.

• The baby is still doing really great and growing along with me. I have an amniocentesis scheduled for Septhember 15th, if her lungs are developed she will be born on September 16th if not the doctor will wait another week to try again. I am getting so excited to get to see her and find out what she looks like.
• We are living in Parowan with my parents and it has been really great. Dan is gone pretty late in the summers, so it is good to have people to hang out with and talk to. Revin is in seventh heaven. I don't know what he will do when we leave. My parents downstairs is pretty much like our own little apartment they even have a fridge down there for us. We love the Parowan 1st ward and wish that it could move to Cedar with us.
• The bank accepted our offer on our new house and we are so excited! If everything goes to plan we should be closing on it on August 10th or around there. It is in Mountain shadows and has its own little Elementary school that Revin can just walk to one day, and a nice church building.

That is what is happening for now, I will let you know more soon!

Goodbye House

So you probably all know that we have had our house for sale for ever, and it just won't sell with the way things are right now so we have decided to rent it out for a year and then maybe try selling it again or keep renting it, whatever works best. We are moving out this weekend and a nice young family will be moving in. We found the most beautiful house and put in an offer, but it is a short sale so it may take a while for the bank to accept or decline. I hope everything works out. For right now we are moving in with my Mom and Dad while we wait for them to accept an offer and close on the house. It is going to be quite the adventure. Who knows, I might have a baby before we can get moved into a new house. Crazy! I will miss this little house, I have grown pretty attached, it is just that it is so small and with another little person it will seem even smaller. So anyways, wish us luck! I hope Revin can handle all the big transitions that will be coming his way!

Why rush it!

Thanks to the great advice that I have been getting, I have decided to wait to potty train until Revin is ready. I swear it almost did me in after three days of trying. He is a stubborn little guy that will do it when he is ready and I really do want to enjoy our little time together with just us before the baby gets here.

HELP

I am potty training Revin this week, and I want to give up so bad! It is hard. I really want him to be potty trained before the baby gets here. Today is day 2 and I still don't feel like he is getting the point. He holds it in until he is shaking, but will not go on the potty. Does anyone have any good advice?

OUR VACATION Day 1 Knotts Berry Farm

Last week we headed to California with my family and some of the Cloggers. We stayed in a place right across from Disneyland so it was really nice and convenient. We started out at Knott's Berry Farm. They had a little Snoppy Village full of kid rides that Revin loved. While Dan went and rode the big rides (that I couldn't go on) with Haley, my dad was a good sport and went on a few rides with Revin. Before we left Dan and I took Revin on the log ride. He loved it even though he lookes petrified in the picture.

Day 2&3 Disneyland and California Adventure

The motel we stayed at had a nice big pool for the kids. Revin loved swimming with his cousins. We also went to Disneyland I was excited because Revin knows every Disney character and can name them all,but I'm not going to lie he was a huge terd. That is why 2 year olds get in free! He loved the rides, but hated waited in line, we still got a few good pictures though.

Day 4 The Beach

We went to a really nice beach called Balboa Beach. I just relaxed in the sunshine and Revin was totally entertained playing in the sand with his cousins. I forgot to put sunscreen on myself and my legs were really sunburnt, but nothing like my Dad's. He has huge sunburn blisters Owww!
