Our Day

Today, we had church. My handsome and growing stepson gave his life to the Lord a few years back but has been hesitant to be baptized. We've had a lot of conversations about it and today, he leaned over the Jason and said, "Dad, I want to be baptized, next week." We just were so excited! I wish we had a picture, but it happened so fast, I just didn't grab my camera. I will have pictures and video from the actual baptism, though.
 

I am just so happy for him - he has really chosen the Lord and has chosen to hold His word in His heart. He is very serious about his decision and even though it took him a little while to decide on baptisms (which take alot of courage!) we know that his decision is a solid, wise one that God led his heart to. If you get a moment, pray for him this week, will you?
 
Then, there are these little girls. Man, they are both messes individually, but get them together, and you are in for it. Avery won't keep her hair up to save her life. It aggravates me to no end, not because I want her hair to be picture perfect, but because it's CONSTANTLY in her face. Drives me crazy.
 

 
This little munchkin played in the sprinkler and kept taking "showers." She is such a joy with her gorgeous smile and personality!!

 
She kept telling me "Cheese!" Think we stick a camera in their face from time to time, or what?


 
I tried to get a good picture of Avery (who is swimming like crazy), but she kept just wanting to spit water out of the pool.

 
Oh, Sophie. You are my crazy child.

 
And I did get a few action shots of the powerful athletes in action, which I will be sending off the Sports Illustrated shortly.

These are some great shots I got of some fabulous looking kiddos!
 

 
Tell me he doesn't look 20, here.

 
She is loving every minute of swimming these days!!

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????
