It's been a while since I've written on here, so I just thought I would do a quick update...

Miles is 7-months-old and still not sleeping through the night. He is super cute, sweet, and happy during the day, so I forgive him for my sleep deprivation.

Quinn still comes up with crazy-cute things to say constantly! Last night we were in Logan Canyon building a fire to roast some hot dogs. I lifted a large branch up to break off the smaller pieces to get the fire going (it was a big, bushy branch) and Quinn looked at me with huge, wide eyes and said, "Mommy, you maked a tree!"

Travis and I are still busy pretty much always. I have been doing a lot of photography, and I am having a blast with it! I am loving the business end of it as much as the photography, which is awesome!

There you have it.

You's Happy at Me!

Two things I have heard about potty training:
  • You can't push it.

  • Boys start later and take longer to potty train.

Well, I have decided to push it a little bit! We bought a little potty and we got Quinn some big-boy (Spiderman) underpants. He was thrilled at the idea of being bigger (since he is already 'big')! He sat on that potty for half of the afternoon yesterday with no results...

When he was all ready for bed and the lights were off he told me he wanted to pee on the potty... so we gave it another shot, this time with SUCCESS! We both high-fived and squealed with excitement! We sang Potty-Big-Boy songs at the top of our lungs and danced around the room! Quinn kept saying, "I did it, Mom! I did it!" It was awesome. Then when he was calmed down and ready for bed again he looked at me and said, "You's happy at me, huh?!" Very happy, Quinn, very happy!
