Happy 4th!

Well hello everyone! It's been quite sometime since I updated! I've had so many things on my plate lately that I have put my blog on the back, back burner. Whats new you may ask? Well....
1) WE FINALLY MOVED INTO OUR NEW HOUSE! We moved in about a month ago and the 'this seems like a dream' feeling is finally disappearing. James and I have become quite the DIYers. We decided to put grass seed down instead of sod, which was a big project but its really neat watching the grass slowly grow. Next we want to extend the patio and build a firepit...if we are successful I will post pictures! I wanted to start a garden but I think it might be a little to late in the year to start especially since I don't know what I'm doing! :)
2) Kaelyn has started a summer school program in la casa. Ok so I set up a little table for her and say its school...she loves it and thats all that matters right?! We have been working on our ABC's and motor skills (making necklaces, cutting, etc.). Today we were coming out of the gym (golds gym) when K started reading the sign on the building "G-O mommy G-Y-M" she didn't know how to pronounce it but at least my hard work is paying off!
3) Potty training is now in the works! I wanted to wait until after we were settled before I went full force into potty training just because I didn't want her to revert back during a stressful time. So I took all my internet research and started the potty training! We have been VERY successful and I am so proud of my little rugrat. I printed out a 'trophy' and glued it to a paper towel roll, its so cute watching her run around the house holding her trophy screaming "KK go potty, KK go potty!" Now if only I could get her to TELL me she has to go potty. she will go every time I put her on the potty but she never lets me know.
4) Gym/gymnastics- I'm hoping that by write this one that I will give me a little more motivation to keep going! I have been going in the mornings, which I love but I feel unmotivated to use the machines and weights without a partner. but I plan to keep going and work through my fears and JUST DO IT! (ok nike...I promoted you...can I have some money??) Oh speaking of gym...I was on my way the the gym the other day and I was running late to my free personal trainer meeting. I of course get pulled over for speeding...maybe 8 over? Anyways, I had no ID on me and for some reason I couldn't find my registration either! It must have been my lucky day because that nice man let me go with just a warning!
Gymnastics-we have switched from a night class to a morning one and I LOVE it! I see a huge improvement in K's involvement and it is so much more relaxed. We have a little trampoline in our living room that has a bar attached. She does all kinds of crazy tricks on it now! I will have to bust out the flip and record some. :)
5) Arts and Crafts- ok nothing new with this BUT I do want to start up that craft night that I've been talking about. If you are reading this and would like to join in on a craft night please let me know a day and time that works for you!!
Well my friends have a very happy and safe 4th of July! James will be working so I'm not sure what Kaelyn and I have planned so far but fireworks will for sure be in our future!
