Big Boy Bed!




Tyler finally got to sleep in his big boy bed for the first time last night. It's Mallory's old bed from when he was little. Tyler was so thrilled...he's been asking for a big boy bed for quite a while now (it took us a while to get it polished up and to get new mattresses for it). This picture makes it look like the lights are on, but that's actually due to the flash...I took it after he fell asleep tonight. I've also included a cute pic of the kids sharing Mommy's iPod on our bed last week.
Update: I should also mention that Tyler is potty trained now! Even wears underwear to bed. He's had the pee pee part down pat for probably at least a month now, but the pooping part was a little more challenging...it's really just been in the past week or so that we've had good success with that. We are so proud of him! Once he decided he was ready, it was really pretty easy! He is growing up fast these days.

Not Done Yet!

OMG! I don't think our bathroom is ever going to be finished. Very little has happened since my last post (what was that, a week and a half ago?). It has now been NINE weeks since we signed the contract for what was supposed to have been a 2-4 weeks job. Ha! Thank goodness we have other bathrooms to use in the meantime, but it certainly makes us rethink the future kitchen remodel, as we don't have another one of those that we can use for the six months or so that it might take this contractor!

Nothing else new going on. Mallory's dad had surgery last week to remove another brain tumor and is supposed to be starting radiation treatments soon to hopefully prevent any more from growing. Keep him in your prayers! We had a fun adventure driving home from Birmingham last week...I wrote about it on Facebook, so I'm not going to recap here. Happy Easter to all!
