Our happenings

I know I haven't posted in a while.  
Here are my thoughts and what has been happening lately.
With baby #4 on the way I am starting to feel mostly better.
I still have my days, but most are good.
I feel like I look pregnant.  
I think I started to show pretty early, but I think at 17 weeks...I don't look to big.
The week before Christmas I started potty training Hank.
I hate potty training.
I didn't want to write anything about it...to possibly jinks myself.
He has done really well.
I would just remind him and now I think most of the time he realizes when he needs to go.
BUT today...He was down for a nap...didn't take one.
He will lay by his door and yell out for me.
He finally started saying he needed to go potty.
He has tried this one before and just used it as a way to get out of his room.
I wasn't falling for it.
After a little while I decided to go in.
The room stunk and then I realized he didn't have any underwear on.
(sorry if this grosses you out...it did me too)
He had pooped and taken off his diaper.
Well I lost it.
I was so mad, he was so upset and all were not good.  
After Clorox wipes and Lysol spray...
I realized I really blew it.
Like I said I HATE potty training...it makes me so mad.
But that is not an excuse.
I felt so bad for the way I react and that is exactly what I did was REACT.
After saying a prayer and telling Hank I am so sorry for mommy getting mad.
I don't think he really cared.
But I think about how i reacted.  I pray for patience and to be a good mom.
But man I sometimes really fail when I am faced with having it.


Hank says...

Last Sunday while driving to church Hank said " Mommy you look cute" and then said "Daddy, you (paused for a little bit) are tall"

Poor Hank...again

This afternoon Kate and Hank were chasing each other around the kitchen/family room.
Apparently Hank had a little pipe in his mouth
and fell.
Poor guy.
It is so swollen and you can tell his is in pain.
He is having a really hard time swallowing
and wont eat anything.
My sister Patti says he should become a bubble boy
he would just pop it


Kate lost her tooth tonight
FINALLY! 

And Meg wanted her picture taken too.
