It's funny how a week can go by so quickly. Just yesterday my mom was commenting on how it had been a week since we got back from California. Wow! It has been a full week for us. We spent a lot of time getting ready for the women's fall brunch at church that I was helping to plan. I was worried when the kids had colds over the weekend, but all went well and Tuesday morning was a lovely morning. I have been so privileged to have this wonderful group of women that I fellowship and study God's word with on Tuesday mornings. I'm now one of the tri-leaders of the group and realize all the details that go into making the group run. I'm excited about the year and where God will take us as we study the life of David. We had 26 women at the brunch and will have 32 studying with us!!!!
I have also been getting my house back in order. Mind you it wasn't out of order but I felt the need to putter around and feel like it was my domain again (after a week away I don't think I lost domain but you Mom's out there understand.) This has meant stocking the fridge and freezer, cleaning, and just generally getting back into a routine.
My other big project of the week was working with Amelia on potty training. I had a whole week without her going to daycare so I decided to go after it. Overall we have done better... wearing underwear on short trips (even sunday to church) I still have to put her on every couple hours, put a pull-up on during naps, and overall ride her to go, but I'm hoping we are making some progress. Dr. Sheri at her check up last week said "a large majority" of kids are trained by this age, but each child is different. Amelia was a late talker, walker, etc so I'm just figuring this will follow that trend too. Of course yesterday at daycare she wouldn't go on the potty at all. Mommy must be firmer than Ms. Sandy! :)
We are now gearing up for our next home project (pictures to follow soon!)
I'm getting ready to put out my fall decorations (thus the new background)
I'm updating my kitchen with some new accessories
And the list goes on.......
