New adventures

We embarked on a new adventure last weekend- our first family camping trip! I was nervous about it because I'm not a huge fan of camping. And I hate sleeping on the ground! But we ended up having a lot of fun. I will post some pictures and tell about the fun things we did.


But, tonight I am getting ready for our adventure tomorrow- Grant is being potty trained! I feel he is finally ready (he is three and a half) and I am mostly excited to have him trained. Some days he thinks he's ready and some days he doesn't, but I'm sure he'll do great. I think of all the stuff that comes with a newly potty trained kid- remembering to send him to the potty when going somewhere or when out and about, taking along extra clothes just in case, making frantic stops on the side of the road for them to go...ahhhh what fun! But over 2 straight years of having 2 kids in diapers is plenty, so we're looking forward to moving on. When I told Grant this morning that today was the last day he's going to wear diapers he responded with "I'm growing littler. I need diapers." He's so funny!! Hopefully tomorrow night will find him happy with his new potty trained status!

Remember Urban was 3 1/2 (I think) and I laughed when you and Marianne would constantly ask your boys if they had to go potty where ever we went and I didn't have to care because Urban was still in diapers!!!
