Day in the Life

So, as this week comes to a close I would like each of you reading this to pray for my dear friend Debbie and her newborn son, Brock. He is having some reflux issues and is at Children's Hospital. She has three other girls and no family here. Myself with two other ladies have been helping with the girls. I know this is a difficult time for them, so please pray for guidance, peace, comfort, and to give the doctors knowledge so that help can be given to baby Brock.

Now, last post we were potty training. That phase has been put on hold for a week or so. We have had so much going on. I start a part-time job this summer (tomorrow to be exact) working at Wes and Will's daycare, Jacksonville Christian. I get to help with the 2nd-6th graders summer program. This will look really good when it is time for job hunting after I graduate! I am super excited and more excited that the boys will get to attend daycare for FREE and their teacher, Mrs. Carmen, is going to help me get them using the potty! YAY! I really wanted to attend the Beth Moore conference in Memphis, Tennessee in October. Our "Godly Girlfriends" from church are going. In order for me to go on this trip, I had to get some kind of job this summer to pay for it. Did I mention that I was excited?! :D Most days I work from 2-6 and others I will work 8-12 and there are a few days I will work 8-4. Not too bad. I will still have time to get things done in the morning or afternoon. Wes and Will will get to play with their friends from school and get a break from seeing their mommy all day, everyday! So, looks like this is going to be a fun filled, busy summer!

Raising Two - Two Year Olds

So, here I am trying out this whole blogging thing. Like I have time to be sitting here writing a blog! As you all know, Chad and I have twin boys Wes and Will. Just a little history before I get started, the boys were born via a scheduled c-section on December 1, 2006. I was 38 weeks pregnant. Wesley Aaron came in weighing 6lbs 3oz and was 19in long. William Daniel came in weighing 7lb 3oz and was 19in long. Yes, I was HUGE! That is the question I most often get, "How big was your belly?". Now that you have the 411 let's get started!

Wes and Will are now two and so far we have conquered the task of walking, breaking the bottle habit, breaking the pacy habit, and now time for potty training! I thought it would be a lot easier than it has been. They just don't seem to be interested in the whole taking time out from playing to go "pee-pee" on the potty. What do I do? They are sitting on the potty most of the day with a drink in hand. They could care less at the whole you get a prize if you potty. They know they will be going to visit the grandparents soon enough! If any of you have any suggestions on this potty training thing, please let me know! THANKS!!
