At the first of the year I started RE-potty training Londyn. Yes I said RE! As in she was before and decided she wasn't ready! So we took a wack at it again. And were SUCCESSFUL!! All I can say is my method was LOTS of bribery and PRAYING, seemed to be what worked best for this little girl. She has been really turning into a little girl. I painted her finger nails about a month ago for the first time. And she LOVED it. The next time we did it a couple of weeks ago, she wanted her fingers and toes done!! She's really enjoying dance class. The girls had a "recital" just before Christmas. It was too funny to watch her spin around, and then a little boy had a Lightning McQueen car. She stopped dancing and tried to take it from this poor boy, who is just a little older than Carter!! :/ 
Another thing we started working on this year is getting prepared for Pre-school. I've been going back and forth whether I wanted to teach her pre-school or take her somewhere else. And with the loving council of my husband, we've decided she needs the social aspect of school already!! And I've notice she learns more quick when someone else is teaching her. Anyway, she now recoginzes almost ALL 26 letters in the alphabet, all her colors, and we're still working on which number is which. Although she can count to 20 (skipping numbers here and there) by herself.
Poor thing is getting Cabin Fever along with me. She's asked me many times if we could WALK to the library. The weather has been nice enough here and there that I've taken her and the dog on a few walks to the elementary school.
Carter has been keeping me on my toes as well, but I'll tell you more about him in a couple weeks when he turns 18 MONTHS!! WOW!!
February has been a crazy, busy, sickly, SHORT month for this family! With church calling for the both of us. I don't think I have posted our calling on here, we've been in them for awhile now. Bradey was put into the Young Men Presidency as the 2nd Counselor (which is also the Scout Master in our Ward) around Thanksgiving timish. I've been one of the Achievement Day Girls leader for over a year now. And sometime Sept/Octish I was put in a the Primary Chorister. I tell you I LOVE both these callings, and want to keep them FOREVER!!
We also had an issue with Londyn a few weeks ago. She's was having some weird symptoms for Strep throat. When we first went to see the doctor he thought she might be leaking protein from her kidney's (Uhhh...Yeah totally freaked me out) but come to find out it was only strep! THANK GOODNESS!! The kids have had mild coughs, we had one night of throwing up with Car-Car, and now we're dealing with runny noses and coughs!! Ugh!! Maybe SOME DAY this house will be without sickly viruses!
Also for Valentine's Day Bradey sent Londyn and I flowers. Then came home with a golf game for Carter. He's teaching him early so he can have a golf partner around ALL the time!! ;)
Then that weekend after Bradey took me out for a dinner and a movie. We went to Texas Roadhouse (YUM!) and watch "Just go with It" SO FUNNY!! We really enjoy most of Adam Sandler's movies.
Hopefully I won't go so long between post!! ;)
