Well, we're off!...

Tonight we are leaving for St. Cloud for Christmas break! Nathan's last day of work is today (Thursday the 20th) and he doesn't have to go back until the 2nd of Jan! This will be a very much needed break for him! We thought that we would have plenty of time to just sit and relax and visit family and friends, but it turns out that we will be busy packing and moving the rest of the stuff out of our house because it finally sold! Praise the Lord!! We will close on the 27th! Wow! That will be a big weight off of our shoulders! I am having a 'moving sale' on Sat the 22nd so hopefully we can sell a lot of the stuff we have left so we don't have to move it! Thanks to all of you who have been so kind to help us with our house and help us with everything!

We have tried to get Tiernan even a little bit excited about potty training, but that is getting us no where fast! He wants nothing to do with it! Nathan sat in the bathroom with him the other night for over 2 hours, until 10:30pm! He finally went potty and Nathan put him to bed. Then in the morning when he got up, he still hadn't gone #2 so Nathan put him back on the toilet. After a little while Nathan had to leave for work and since I was not up yet, Nathan put a diaper on Tiernan and what happened next? You got it!....he went in his diaper! Ugh! That was really frustrating for Nathan. So I think we'll keep trying and praying that he'll want to be potty trained!!

Brayan is rolling over now! Man, how the time flies!! He is almost 4 months and a few days ago he rolled from his back to his tummy. Now I can't lay him on the floor without him rolling to his tummy. What a fun little trick he learned!!

Well, I better start packing! Nathan wants the car to be packed when he gets home from work, which means I have a ton of stuff to do yet! I better get going!! If I don't post before Christmas, have a wonderful holiday with family and friends and remember who is the REAL reason for the Season! JESUS CHRIST!! Love, Dawn

That stinks that Tiernan wants nothing to do with potty training. What we did with Grace and are now doing with Mercy is we take diapers away except for bed and nap and they get under ware. The first few days are a pain because there are a lot of mess to clean up, but eventually they got tired of being wet. Plus, everytime they went in the potty they got a gummy bear. Every child is different, so, if this helps great! If not, sorry, you got to do what works for you and your kid!
