More Pics

Well I finally figured out how to get my pics from my camera to my computer to my page.....Boy this technology is killing me. Next I have to figure out this songlist stuff. Enjoy the pics and don't forget Avery's big third birthday is coming up on March 22. Thats right already three, PEEING ON THE POTTY and all. Next I will try to get all of our snow pics up...You should see the snowman that Bryan and Avery built.

I TAKE IT BACK

Okay I take it back....I told you last week that potty training was going to be the death of me, but I have to take it all back....And....I hope that I am not speaking too soon in saying that but it has been a breeze this second time around. I mean don't get me wrong we are still a work in progress but he is doing really well. Yippeeee...I think that him getting candy EVERY TIME he goes has something to do with it but whatever works.
Also on our list of concerns is preschool or no preschool I have called the Montessori and the Christian Academy in Harrodsburg and I don't know what we are going to do. If anyone has any other ideas or opinions on this let me know. Okay enough written, I will be waiting on pointers on potty training and preschool....all you teachers out there let me know. Email me jenniferwhitehouse@yahoo.com!!!!!!!!!

Long Time, No Post

Well lets see.....Since July, gosh ALOT has happened. We went on vacation to Indian Shores, Fl. It was great. We also took a day and went to Sea World and Avery still talks about the dolphins. Indian Shores is a quiet beach right down from Clearwater, it was great, no one was on the beach all week it was like our own private beach. Avery loved making sand castles and Austin....well, he just liked the taste of the sand.
Since then we have survived October which was Austins 1st birthday and I will try to get the pictures up next week. He absolutely loved cake....he buried his face in it.
Now that has you all caught up through October, November and December were just a blur because of all the holidays. "Santa" built Avery and Austin a train table and brought them all the accessories to go with it. Jan. was pretty laid back......which brings us to Feb.
So far in Feb. we have really kicked into potty training and BOY IS THAT A GOOD ONE.....OH MY....Everyone says that boys are more difficult, but at the rate were going my kids probably won't start school on time....they won't be potty trained. I have wishful thinking in that I plan on trying to get both boys potty trained this summer, all the trees and bushes will be blooming which means alot of running around peeing outside will be going on at my house. I am hoping that we can get Avery trained and Austin good and started by his second birthday in October. Of course if we can't get Austin to start talking by 1 1/2 years old I dont know how in the world we can get him potty trained by two, (ambition is a great thing).
Feb. also takes us to the FAMOUS farm machinery show in Louisville, which we attended last weekend. That was interesting....let's see, we had a set of grandparents, our two kids, and a nephew bringing the total to three kids under three and four adults taking care of them and Ill just tell you......we needed about four more adults to keep us all sane. Overall it was really fun and the kids love seeing all the big tractors and equipment. Okay I am running out of room and now that I have joined the digital world of cameras I should be able to write more and post more pictures more frequently....I will try to be better about keeping you updated in the future.

The Good O Fair

Well it's that time again...The County Fair. Of course we spent two days at the fair and another at the BABY CONTEST! That's right, Baby Contest. It was a long HOT day with WAY too many kids and parents thinking that they had the cutest baby. Needless to say we went to put Austin in the Diaper Derby because of his funny hands and feet crawling. And ended up coming home with two trophies...one for third place in the Diaper Derby and one for FIRST PLACE for Avery in the "Pretty Boy Contest" as daddy calls it. Also we woke up the next morning with mine and Austins' picture right on the front page of the City/Region section on the LEXINGTON HERALD. So needless to say it has been an eventful week and I am glad that it is over, because staying up all night for a tractor and truck pull and having to work the next day is just way too much for this old gal.

Technologically Challenged

Okay guys....I am trying to become a member of the 21st century. I have created THE BLOG!!!! Now I just have to figure out how to make it, manage it, and post pics. (Man this may take some time). HUMMMM, time, that is something I have NOTHING of. As you all know we now have TWO kids. Avery and Austin, Avery almost 2 1/2 and Austin now barely 8 months. If I was a good mom I might have some pics to post but I will have to check...then I will have to figure out how to get them.....Here!!! Avery is a wild child and Austin is starting to crawl and pull up. We haven't really done anything exciting this summer other than just doing the normal playing outside until mommy is pouring with sweat.


Avery is definitely an outdoors child, we have to slide, swing, water the garden/flowers, AND ride our little tractor at least once per day. After that we are really into Monsters Inc and Barnyard movies...it's so bad that we know almost every line in the movies.


Austin is into drooling, jabbering, crawling (on his hands and FEET), and saying mum and dada of course.



Thats all for now, I will try to keep you informed and get some pictures on this thing as well.
