quickie update

sorry, i dont have time to add in my photos right now, but i wanted to get in a quick update before 2 months pass by.

emmas uti is better, and the pee accidents went right away with the antibiotic. THANK GOD. also, i no longer ask her to use the bathroom unless it is time to leave the house or go to sleep. she is in control of when she goes the rest of the time. shes had two tiny pseudo accidents because shes waited too long, but thats it. good girl. also, while at family reunion she had a dry night! (her first EVER.) when she gets up in the morning, i have her change into panties and leave her pull up on the edge of the tub for me to put in the diaper genie, and this morning i found that it was dry! so thats two now, and she had a TON to drink last night, i was just sure it would be soaked. progress, progress!

when we got home from reunion and camping jason helped me move georgie into emmas room. we had a couple late late nights, but overall they have done really well. george doesnt sleep in anymore, and nap times are hard (especially since emma doesnt really need one every day anymore) but over all the kids enjoy it and i like having the extra space.

though, its not really extra, because this week i moved almost all our toys into the front bedroom. the closet is full of baby items and the stock of diapers, wipes and pull ups. there is my changing table, love seat, and bunk bed still in there, as well as the play kitchen, several bins of toys, and the papasan cushion on the floor. its kind of a full room, but the kids really love it, and i love that all those things are out of my living space.

jason is still in school until the beginning of august, then he has 3 weeks of summer break. i cant wait for break. and neither can he. poor guy.

my garden is growing, and over flowing. we dont have a lot of produce yet with the late summer this year, but i do enjoy looking out at all the squash, corn and tomatoes sticking up. (the green beans, strawberries, carrots, cucumbers and peppers are all too short to see over everything else.) cant wait until we actually get to eat some of it.

so, theres june and july in a nutshell for you!
