I haven't posted in a while, so here are a couple of things we have been up to lately.

Zacks potty trained!!!

The third time is the charm. The first time I tried he peed on the floor and while I was cleaning up the mess he went downstairs and pooped on the carpet. He then walked in it and smeared it all into the carpet. I was done with trying after only an hour.

A couple of months later after reading that Cheree was potty training Carter I got up the nerve again. 48 hours into potty training their was no success to mention. He had peed all over my house but never in the potty. I got motivated again the third time when I signed him up for Fall preschool and found out he couldn't go unless he was in underwear. After only one accident we had success in the potty, Yeah! We have been pushing forward ever since. He now goes everywhere in underwear and he even takes his naps in underwear (I don't trust him with nights yet but most the time he wakes up dry)

My advise to anyone that is in this stage, use pull ups as little as possible. If Zack had pull ups on he would go in his pants no problem because it absorbed just like a diaper. But if he went when he had underwear on he knew right away that there was a problem. I think it sped up training him. Kind of a pain the first couple of days but well worth it.

The Temple Open House

This is Brock with two of his cousins at the Draper Temple Open House. He was pretty excited to be able to see the inside of a temple. He walked around in awe of everything. He wanted to take pictures of everything but since cameras weren't allowed, he literally took mental pictures. He would look up at what he wanted to remember and hold his hand like he had a camera and click an imaginary picture, it was way cute to see. His favorite parts of the tour were the sealing room and the celestial room, I would have to agree. I love that it already gets him excited about getting married in the temple.

Our Trip to the Zoo

I love, LOVE spring. Brock had school off on Friday so we went to the Zoo. It was perfect weather. I can not wait to start my garden this year.

After the Zoo we went to this is the Place Monument. All the houses weren't open yet so we just walked around and took pictures then headed to the Gateway Mall for the kids to play in the fountain while I shopped. What a great day.

So that is what we have been up to the last couple of months. Nothing to exciting but we like it that way.
