Spring fever

I just love the spring. We have been working on getting our small garden going and planting a few flowering bushes and things to help our front look better. Dean just loves being outside and "helping" in whatever project we're working on.

We have also embarked into the world of potty training. Yes, Dean is young, but he's already in size 6 diapers and I truly don't want to have to order diapers from amazon instead of going to the store to buy them. He started showing interest and has really caught on fast. That doesn't mean it has been easy and without many struggles. He's still in diapers (underwear was a HORRIBLE experience and he was SOOO mad at me), but he's going more and more in the toilet and less and less in his diaper. He's truly amazing and we find ourselves more and more amazed by him with each passing day.

Winter semester is coming to its close and we'll soon be into the madness that will be this spring term. We are just so pleased with all that John has done to get this close to graduating.

  1. Potty training had been a real struggle for us. Since I don't sew, my mom helped me make some of these to catch accidents.

    Not sure if he'll like them, but they saved our floors and she caught on pretty quick. And, I don't think you're nuts for trying so young. My mom said all 3 of her kids were trained by 18 months. Makes me feel like a slacker!
