30th November 2007

My aunt cousin and her baby (Gayle, Misty & Alicia) came to stay friday and saturday night as they were in salt lake for a funeral. On friday my parents came down and they gave aaron some birthday gifts and we ate the 'special' cake I made. I could not believe how long and thick Alicia's hair was, its so cute! One of the pictures is of Alicia and her uncle Dutch.




Aaron's Birthday 29th November

Aaron had a great birthday and was spoiled with wonderful gifts.
He had to work early that morning so we did gifts as soon as he got home from work. In the evening he had some friends around for 'game time'. He still can't believe he is now 26, he continually says "man im just getting too old". On the other hand, josh loved helping daddy open his gifts...

Off To Phoenix - 15 Nov 07






Well here we are at the airport on thrusday waiting for our flight. Josh loved being there and couldn't take his eyes off the airplanes.
He went potty right before the flight and held it until we got off, he did such a good job!
While we were on the plane he loved looking out the window with Steph and had so much to say.
When we arrived in Phoenix we caught a shuttle that took us to the car rental station. There we saw this lime green car and Josh would not take his eyes off it. He got so excited and was shouting with joy "car car car" "wow car"... Unfortunatly that wasn't the car we got, ours was still really cool though.

Croup!

We found out today that josh has croup. Croup is a swelling of the voice box (larynx) and windpipe (trachea). The doctor gave him a steroid shot that is supposed to help bring the swelling down and is supposed to help it go away quicker.
So far its not been a fun process but we are making it and josh is doing really well.
Night times are the worst and he has a hard time sleeping but he is still doing excellent with potty training. Even though he feels horrible, he will still go in the toilet and is still wearing his 'big boy pants'.
Lets hope he gets better soon! We leave for Phoenix Thursday.

New Week

Well sunday was a hard day for our little family. Joshua woke up at 2 am with a fever of 102. I couldn't get his fever to break all day and he was so miserable. He tried so hard to have a 'normal' day trying to make me laugh and play with his toys but at the same time not understanding what was wrong. Aaron was also sick with a stomach bug of some sort.
It was a long and weary day but we made it through it and today is a much better day! Josh is still doing so great with potty training and Aaron is feeling more up to speed.

We are onto another eventful week as Josh and I head off to Phoenix thursday! YAY!

Nearly There...


Well for the title of this post... I have been working with Josh on potty training for three weeks now and we are so close to calling it official. He has made it three days now without any accidents and just yesturday he began telling me when he needed to go. He says 'got to go' or 'poo poo'. It is so cute.

I cannot believe how fast he is growing. He so much fun and his vocabulary continues to grow every day. He LOVES cars. Literally, cars the movie, outside driving down the street, anything that immitates a car.
