Some More

Well the last few weeks we have been TRYING to potty train Vincent. I don't know if I waited to long or what, but we are having the hardest time. He'll do great for so long and then go play outside and lose it all. And #2 is a joke! I don't even know! Any suggestions? I've heard boys are harder than girls, but this is crazy!!! I don't know if it's the talk of the baby on the way but all of a sudden he seems to love his diapers and never wants to be without them!

He also seems to love being naked lately, he never ever wants to wear a shirt! I'll manage to get him dressed if we leave the house but as soon as we're back home the shirt is off!

Lately, Vincent started asking me what time it is. Which why in the world does he wonder what time it is? He insists that quite often it is twenty o'clock. One night last week, my mom, Jeremy, Vincent, and I were going on a walk at night and he started listing all of these times it could be.

Vincent: "Mom, what time is it?"
Me: "It is 7:30"
Vincent: "No, maybe it is 3 o'clock
Me: "Ok"
Vincent: Or maybe it is twenty o'clock .........or thirty o'clock....or maybe
Grandma buy me o'clock.

We laughed the rest of the way home!

** For me, this week has been really rough. Jeremy has had a terrible week with his back. Since about Wednesday I don't think he has gotten out of bed much. He is in so much pain and I don't have any medicine to help him. We met with a new doctor that gave us some hope but the insurance still hasn't approved the pain management. So, on Monday I think we are going to go meet with a doctor my dad knows, but it costs $500 for the first visit! A little steep!?!?!? But how much is quality of life worth? It's just real hard, emotions are all over the place being pregnant and all and dealing with school and not being able to work nearly as much and getting screwed royally with my tax return! (you don't even want to know) Good thing I know this great tax guy who can fix it : )

Baby is doing good! I'm just about 26 weeks now and the belly finally showed up lol. I get a lot of back pain, especially when I try to do any cleaning or rearranging upstairs...oops. I feel him all the time! I worked out the alleles on some online website and found out I should be expecting green eyes, which is kinda exciting! 14 more weeks to go : )

Family Reunion

Well I am definitely on top of blogging today! We just got home from the LeRoy Ellsworth Reunion at the McCormick Stillman Railroad Park in Scottsdale. I had never been there before but boy did we have a great time! My Grandpa & Grandma were there along with my Aunt Jean and Uncle Mig's family and my parents and sibling or too as well. It was nice to see everyone. I like going to these reunions and even though Corwin isn't there anymore, you can see so much of him in his children that it's kinda like he still is : ) Vincent had a blast, while everyone else sat and ate, he ran and ran and ran. This kid is a definite runner! He also went with Jeremy & his second cousin Grady on the trains there. They take you around the park. On the way out, we also took a ride on the carousel which is one of Vincent's all time favorite things to do! It was a great day, and Vincent crashed on the way home and is sleeping on the couch!
