Happy 4th of July!!

Happy 4th of July! This is only the last half of our day in pictures - these were on my camera. I will add more tomorrow!
 
We went to QuikTrip Park to watch the Airhogs beat the (insert other team's name here) for a wonderful Independence Day victory! And might I added, it felt WONDERFUL out tonight.
 





Avery's really catching on to this smiling thing. It's almost like, "Oh you want a smile? I am giving you the most weird smile you've ever seen!"
 
By the way, Avery gets so freaked out by anything in a costume. First it was Chuck E Cheese, now it's the Airhog mascot.
 
Afterwards, we moved to the field for the fireworks. Avery did NOT want to go down there at first because that's where the Airhog was. So, the other two just rounded the bases.




 
And slid into third.

 
We hung out for a while before the fireworks started. They were playing The Rookie and the kids just played and played.


 
She finally came around.


"What are those other kids doing over there?"
 

 
"Ok, I might want to go play..."
 
 
"Say hello to the blur, I am out of here!"

 
Nothing gives me chills like the song "Proud to be an American" with fireworks going. And man, did they have a finale!!

I have to say, after Christmas, July 4th is definitely a close second on my favorite holiday. So glad I got to share it with my family!!! This is our 5th July 4th together - it's amazing we've been together that long!! I mean, you know, like, cool amazing, not like, "yuck!" amazing. Ha ha.
 
Have a great evening Blogland - catch you on the flip side!!

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...
