Potty Training

So we have been talking about potty training a lot.  Landon was showing interest before we left Omaha but it just wasn't great timing.  He really wanted to be like his friend Bo! Well this week he woke up one morning and put on his own big boy pants.  He had a couple of accidents but did pretty good.  He has really been doing great!  We were out at a store and he even told me that he had to go, held it and then went on the potty!  We are SO excited for him.  You can just see in his eyes how proud he is!  I hope this continues and we will soon be diaper free!

Friday we were hanging out at home since Bill took the car to work (we are still waiting for the Camry to arrive from Bahrain).  Addison came to be and said "Mom will you call me Ruby and Landon Bond."  Ahhh ok....I said something to her and she made me say it again using Ruby.  I have NO idea where this girl comes up with this stuff!  Addi and Landon (aka Ruby and Bond) are loving their backyard. There are a lot of trees and they love to play back there.  They even found some wild strawberries growing.  Oh geez they were excited! In front there is a flat sidewalk and they are loving that to ride bikes.  We have met some of our neighbors too and they have kids about the same age so really all is well.  As far as the house goes....that is another story.  Most things are out of boxes...except the garage which is so full of empty boxes we can't move. Now it is trying to hang pictures and all that. And I am still and will be for three years struggling with where to put stuff.  This house is half the size of our house in Omaha.  It is just painful.  Today I was really missing home.....it just takes so long to get places here.  There is no such thing as a quick trip anywhere! I MISS OMAHA!
