You remember last post on Luke's bed. Well, last week I kind of lept onto it and broke it. That was embarrassing and exasperating, since it was like 3 months old. I decided a week and a half ago that we were going to start potty training Luke that day. I went and bought Disney underwear, juice, carbonated water, MnMs and an MnM dispenser(1 or 2 at a time). Luke has been doing really well, right away. He had shown some interest before when one of his friends came to our house and used the potty. So at that time we let him tell us when he needed to go. But now we are serious about it. He hasn't had very many accidents unless you count poo in his underwear. And I really do. He sometimes will tell us he needs his diaper on, so he can poo in it. But has kind of refused to go in the potty, unless we can catch him and throw him onto the potty. Any tips would be helpful. We think we need to up the anty for the poo treats. As soon as the MnMs from the dispenser are gone, tomorrow or the next day, we will change the pee treat to stickers. Baby girl is so cute and sleeping through the night!

Greg and I went on our first date in quite a while to the Gun Range. I shot a Sig 357 and a AR 15. The hand gun was surprising in how much it moved after you fired it. The Rifle was just super loud. It was my first time firing a gun and I enjoyed myself. But would need lots of practice. Last weekend I went and picked 13 lbs of blueberries at a local patch. It took me a 3 hours to do plus $2 a lb. Daddy stayed home with the babies because they would have gotten bored quickly. I won't go back by myself. Maybe with a group. The end

Luke recently got a big boy bed. It's taken a while for him to get used to it and he didn't sleep in it for a couple weeks, but he finally does. Sometimes.

Here are some more Easter pictures. We had a lot of fun hiding for Luke.
My brother, Grant, recently got married to an awesome girl, named Carly. So we went on a short vacation to Utah. Sorry friends that we didn't see you while we were there. And also sorry Grant and Carly that Greg was in charge of the camera during our trip. Because we don't have any good shots of you guys. We have some dark ones and some with you behind other people. But none of just the two of you. For shame, husband of mine.

During our trip we were able to bring family from both sides together for the blessing of our baby girl, Caroline Paige. My mom made this dress and bonnet and it is pretty spectacular. Unfortunately, our pictures aren't the best ever, so hopefully we can get some better ones from my mom and in-laws. It was very special and we were so glad to have lots of family there!
We got to go to the zoo with Exxon Mobil for a family party. Luke drank a ton of soda. He loves it. It was fun.

Five Weeks Old and Doing Fine

It's been five weeks and I think it's only fair that you see what we've been up to. My mom and brother, Josh, came for Spring Break.

The final photo is of Caroline on her one month birthday. Congrats baby girl! At her dr's visit at 5 weeks she weighed 10 lbs 9.5 oz (90%.) Her height is 21 3/4 in (75%.) And her head circumference is 15 in (75.) We're all doing great! (read sleep deprived)
