Since the year ended I’ve kind of missed daily (or rather, catching up on 4 days at a time in one day) blogging. \u00a0This blog has become a journal for me and a way to remember what happened to our little family. \u00a0So while daily blogging was too much to tackle again, I figured a weekly review was doable. \u00a0I thought about how to do this, do I post every Wednesday since that’s officially when the new year started? \u00a0Do I do it on Sunday, since that technically starts the week? \u00a0Or Saturday since that’s the last day of the week? \u00a0I settled on Sunday, but here I am on Monday typing this up. \u00a0I guess you can expect a weekly review every week, on some day of the week. \u00a0It will be like a surprise! \u00a0Will it be today?! \u00a0But really, I will catch up weekly! \u00a0Not that more than 3 people are out there reading this blog, so it’s more for myself so that I don’t forget what happened and when.<\/p>\n

The big news from last week…we bought a minivan! \u00a0With baby #3 on the way, we knew we needed something that could accommodate all of us, and all the stuff we now travel with when we go anywhere for an overnight stay. \u00a0You should have seen us at the airport when we went to LA for Christmas. \u00a0We traded in the Murano, a sad separation. \u00a0I really liked that car. \u00a0But the van has already proven itself to be a wise purchase and people tell me that once you go minivan it’s hard to go back.<\/p>\n

We spent New Years Eve at the Hartmans with the Gilberts and Van Kleefs, and New Years day with the Mackenzies.<\/p>\n

On January 2 we started potty training. \u00a0We stayed home almost all day Thursday and Friday and while we had a few pee puddles in the house on Thursday, Friday was better, and Saturday was much better. \u00a0We even went to the grocery store, a birthday party, and out to dinner without an accident. \u00a0He did have an accident at church. \u00a0He went with all the kids to the bathroom, sat on the potty, but did his business back in the classroom in his pants. \u00a0Good thing we brought extra underwear and pants! \u00a0 He doesn’t wear diapers anymore. \u00a0He spends pretty much all day at home in no pants at all, pull ups at nap and night time, and either underwear or pull ups when we go out. \u00a0He is doing well and has even told me he needs to go to the bathroom a couple times. \u00a0He gets a sticker, a piece of chocolate and lots of praise and high fives when he goes. \u00a0Looking forward to having just one kid in diapers, for now anyway.<\/p>\n

Cleverly hidden privates. \u00a0Sat him on a beach towel everywhere he went.<\/em><\/p>\n

Watching a movie to pass the time in the ridiculously long line at Chick-fil-A. \u00a0I promise not to abuse the use of the DVD player in the car again…<\/em><\/p>\n
