7 Quick Takes


-1-
I've really been digging The Band Perry.  Jimmy mumbles along to this one too

For Jimmy, potty training is a b****.  Right now we have to wait til it's just about an emergency because he's afraid to go.  My thinking is once he does this enough then he'll be able to relax and control his functions more.  Unfortunately we haven't been consistant because when I run errands or when we travel on the weekend I leave him in the diaper.  We have to get this down as he starts preschool in exactly one month but yet we have a weeks vacation, followed by the rodeo coming up.  Any suggestions for traveling and potty training?  HELP!

I'm pretty sure I felt a little flutter when I went to bed last night. How easy it is to forget that feeling of a baby moving in your womb. Even though you have a connection with that child you don't yet know who they will be.  It's so wonderful to be reminded when your previous children were in the womb and imagine them as the ones doing summersaults.

Adam and I think we'll skip the state fair this year because of money and heat.  However, with the activity going on right now on the fairgrounds (jr horse show and people setting up) Vose's corndog stand is open.  Yes, I already went.  Yes, I'll probably go back.  It makes me feel like I went to the fair.

A while ago I said I wanted to go to a concert and I'd pick Miranda Lambert.  Well she's playing at the state fair but we're spending our money on a vacation so no Miranda, no Pistol Annies.  So sad.

-6-
Our trip entails Oklahoma, Texas, Arakansas, and Branson MO.  I'm most looking forward to the histroic stockyards in Fort Worth

I've been hanging on to a spa gift card for way too long.  I can't make up my mind what I'd like to do with it: facial, massage, mani/pedi.  Perhaps this weekend will be my chance!
