Remarks to comments

Ellen I think that an Ode to Cereal would be highly appropriate for you and your family.

Lanelle, we would LOVE to have you guys over, so which week in August would you like to come? We have access to a pool and multiple playgrounds! And hints on potty training, well..... whenever someone is in the bathroom she always asks what they are doing, so I say that they are putting their pee pees in the potty. This has been going on since February. Then we got her a little potty and we let her explore it. Now I ask if she wants to put her pee pees in the potty like Mommy does, or Daddy. Sometimes she says yes and goes right to the potty, other times she says no. Then the plan is to get her some silky type big girl panties and to keep her downstairs where the hardwood floor is so that it is easier to clean up. My mother-in-law says that the silky kind are the best because they don't really soak up the water, so the child knows that they made a mess etc. So I am hopeing that that works. I will let you know when we get to that stage. But I think it would be totally different for a boy. So good luck! If anybody else out there has some tips/hints they would be greatly appreciated.

If anyone else wants to come and visit just let me know!

Aha! You are too hospitable! =) Actually I just learned that we will be coming down the week after next, probly July 8th - 12th or so. Ryan has an audit down there so I thought it would be the perfect opportunity to take a little vacay and see anyone that wants to see us too.

We have a hotel, but if there are any free days or nights that you guys have open we would love repeat LOVE to drive down and see you!!!!!! Do you have any cooked spaghetti noodles and a plastic swimming pool? ;) I'm just sayin.
