So much to blog about...

At the Tree Farm

Twins!

So I've been meaning to blog for like 2 weeks now but I'm just now getting around to it.

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend last week with Dad and Susie here. Olivia LOVES spending time with them. We went shopping, let her build a bear, got a Christmas Tree and decorated it, and best of all they got to see Grayson get dedicated on Sunday. Grayson looks so much like Dad!

Olivia had a blast decorating the tree. 75% of the ornaments are on the bottom 2 feet of the tree because that was all she could reach. It will be so fun to see her really get into Christmas this year.

The day before Thanksgiving I decided to try to potty train Olivia, again. She did great the first day, not so great the 2nd day but since then she has been doing so well and has had very few accidents. I'm proud to report that we haven't used diapers for her in a week and a half! It is wonderful to only have one in diapers! I was shocked at how easy it was once she finally decided she was ready.

As you can see from the pictures, we got the house all decorated for Christmas. Michael spent a long time on the lights and they turned out great. Christmas is my favorite time of year. I keep calling him Clark Griswald because he put up as many lights as he he could and even borrowed some that his Dad wasn't going to use. I just hope cousin Eddy doesn't pull up in the RV....

And......We've decided to sell our house! We have absolutely loved this house and could not have picked a better first house for us to live in but we have been feeling so crowded lately (mainly since Grayson was born) and would love to have an extra room for our guests to sleep (besides the couch) when they come to stay. We are still staying on the debt plan and have paid off everything except the student loans. Hopefully it will sell fast but we aren't going to pick out another house until ours sells. It is very exciting for us but the biggest challenge will be keeping the house in tip top shape with our busy schedules and a toddler running around.

Quote of the week: Michael was talking to Grayson and Olivia comes over to Michael and says "Daddy, he doesn't understand you." Like, duh Dad he's just a baby! She's developing quite the attitude already!
