Aren’t you jealous…

January 4th, 2009

I know that I’ve posted before about Zoe and starting to potty training. That was short lived, but we’re trying again now and we’re getting serious this time. She knows when she’s messed her diaper and wants it off right away so we figure it’s time to try again. This time we’ve enlisted the help of a video that was given to us a while ago by a friend. For those of you who have kids or friends who have kids you might have heard of the show. It’s Bear in the Big Blue House. Even though it’s no longer on TV she seems to be entertained by it and at least willing to watch. We’ll see how things go only time will tell. Below is a clip of what we’ve been watching hope you enjoy it as much as we do. It’s actually a pretty catchy tune. :c)

Resolutions

It’s that time again, where we promise to make changes, lose weight exercise more, you name it and somebody has probably made a resolution about it. I myself have decided to make a few resolutions, but most of them I’m not going to share them with anyone other than Stef. That way if I break them I’m the only one that will know. Also, I’m the only one who can hold myself accountable for succeeding and keeping them.

The few that I will share with everyone is that I’m going to make myself post daily updates or snippets here. Mainly because it’s been very neglected as of late and there really isn’t any reason for it. The excuse that I always have is that I don’t have the time or too busy, but I always have time to surf the net for a few minutes or surf on facebook. So if I have time for that then I have time to post. Second, I’m going to work on an updated look for our site. It’s been the same look since the inaugural post back in 2005. And like everything on the web it’s time to update. I want to invite readers though to please comment on the re-design or if there is anything that you would like to see added please let me know.

With all that being said, here’s to the New Year and resolutions. Hoping that everyone has started the year off right and is happy and healthy.

A holiday wish!

December 24th, 2008

During this time of year during all the hustle and bustle we sometimes get overwhelmed. Every now and then we need to just take a minute and step back and relax. I know I’m as guilty of it a anyone. So with that being said here’s a simple Christmas wish for everyone. Take a minute step back from all the shopping, baking and general holiday stressing and remember what’s important.

We’ve finally cut the cord

After much deliberation, we have finally disconnected our land line. Matt, Elijah and I all have our own cell phones and the land line was just an additional expense we’ve decided we can live without. If you need our cell numbers, send us an email or leave a comment below and we’ll get them to you.
