Game Night and Avery Takes Control of the Camera!!!

Tonight we played Uno, the one where you press the button and machine spits them out at you. Uno Blasto? I don't know the name. But we like that game, it's actually really fun.

This was Avery's first official game to play with us. This is a great game for her to learn and recognize colors and numbers!!

Jason kept giving me +2s and +4s, so I literally had half of the deck by the end of the game. See the one on the right? That was my stack at the end.

There was no WAY I was going to win - so I just helped Avery win!

And she did!!

Then, Avery had so much fun taking pictures with my camera. Here are some of my favorites!! We kept having to move into the shot because she wouldn't really aim...

This just reminded me of when Sophia was little and we used to play games with her. She was only 4 and didn't understand, so we would all just pretend we didn't see her cards and just help her. Tonight, Sophia said, "I don't want Avery to play she's too little!" and we said, "Sophia, remember when you were little and we helped you play?" Of course she didn't, but now she knows how her brother felt all those years ago!

It's so weird when stuff like that starts to happen - one kid gets older and isn't the youngest anymore. Crazy! Here are just a couple of the beautiful (and silly) girls. Good night!!

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????
