This weekend with the kids






















Well, what an eventful weekend it was! On Friday, Jason, the kids and myself drove down to meet my parents at the old Texas Roadhouse in Grand Prairie. It was alot of fun to see some old friends and my sister Leslie, whom I never get to see. The kids like it there, Jordan loves the bacon (go figure) and Sophia makes a meal of honey cinnamon butter with bread. That's right, not bread with butter. After that, we drove down to Joe Pool Lake with Mom and Dad to feed the fish, which was a lot of fun! The next morning, we got up and Sophia really wanted to play with sidewalk chalk and wanted Jason to make her paper airplanes, which we did. She had a blast out there, with a piece of paper and a dollar store box of chalk. To continue on our day of "free fun" we went to the DFW Airport to Obversation Station, where we could watch the planes take off and land. When I read the ad for it, it sounded ALOT cooler than it really was, but Mom and Dad met us out that way, so it was nice to spend time with everyone outside, rather than in front of the TV! After that, we drove to Grapevine Mills and went back to school shopping (huge sales, bought some bare necessities). If you'd have asked me if I would be back to school shopping a year ago, I would have told you that you were crazy! While we were there, the kids decided to do some activities, climbing the rock wall and bouncing on the trampoline! We couldn't quite convince Jordan to try the trampoline, but Sophia did and LOVED it! That's our little daredevil! But that's how we spent our weekend...I included some pictures so you could see!

Guess Who Has A New Potty???

This girl!! Jason and I took Avery to Target tonight to find a potty chair. We didn't know what kind to get. When we got there, she loved the Sesame Street one. It's the kind that sits on the toilet, not an actual chair. I've heard both reasonings on a chair and a pad for the real toilet. On one hand, the chairs are little and easier for them to sit on and they aren't scary to flush. On the other, the pad doesn't require you to have to clean out a chair and they teach kids to sit on the big potty from the get go. What it really came down to was that we just don't have a big bathroom at all, so keeping an actual chair in the bathroom would have been hard. So we got the pad. It has a little hook that you attach to the tank, so you can hang the pad on it. I love this!  I have no intention of actually potty training Avery full out, just yet. I don't think she is ready. But I have heard it's good to have one that they can practice sitting on and get u...

Some Changes...

We've been going through a bit of a transition at the Whitehead household the last month or so. I haven't really talked too much about it because I wasn't ready, to be honest. It's just a lot of change and I've been trying to figure it out in my head.   As of three weeks ago last Friday, I am no longer a full time work out of home employee.   I can't believe I just said that.   It's been the plan for several months now for me to go into real estate and it was always assumed I'd be doing that part time, while keeping my full time job. Plans kind of changed when Jason got his promotion. He'd always has a job that allowed him a lot of flexibility. In sales, especially after you've been in a position for a while, it just sort of happens that way. He could take Avery to daycare and pick her up, he could take her to doctor's appointments, he could even do chores around the house in the afternoon, while I was at work. I had some flexibi...

Just a little bathroom project....

Raise your hand if this is what your bathroom looks like after every round of baths at your house????
