Flashback Friday

So, today is Flashback Friday and I am going to try something NEW today - I want you all to LINK EM' UP!!

As a kid, what was your favorite memory of your grandparents house?


We had such fond memories of my grandparents growing up - Mimi and Poppaw to be exact - and one thing that I remember very fondly is playing Gin Rummy with my Mimi and drinking "tea." Really, it was coke or something, but she would let me use her old tea dishes. My Mimi always taught me how to play card games and was so good at them, but she would occasionally let me win. :-)

Come on yall, I want to hear from you!

How fun! My parents and I lived with one of my grandmothers growing up so I have LOTS of memories-but my favorite is about my grandmothers mother-my great-grandmother. She had a "junk jar" (big old glass jar full of mismatched and/or broken jewelry) that I could dump out whenever I was there and play with for HOURS! It was so much fun. When she passed away, that was the one thing I asked for and it's in my bedroom now :)

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...
