Healing, Walking, and the Potty Train!


I thought I'd post some pictures for concerned Aunties and Uncles who are far away and can't see Grace very often...here is a picture of her on the Sunday following her dog bite (that's just 4 days after). She looks almost completely healed and back to normal now, though. It's beenamazing to see.. I can't believe how quickly she has recovered and gotten back to her troublesome (and lovely) self.

Janie is walking like a champ these days! She's completely mobile on her feet now and is getting into everything you can imagine :) I bought her a new forward-facing carseat today and will post some pics of her in it as soon as she takes her first ride. New digs! Woo hoo! (Or does the word "digs" only refer to clothing and shoes? Hmmm...I'm not sure.)

Well, thanks to some name dropping on my part (Zoe, Taytem, Rylee, Leah...) Gracie is oficially riding the POTTY TRAIN! She's been in panties/pull-ups for about 4 days now. It's definitely turning out to be a gradual process, but I think we're making GOOD progress, and that's what counts to me. Her favorite undies are Elmo ones, and her treats for going #2 are these little doggy toys (picture Polly Pocked meets the pound). All in all, things are going so much better than I anticipated, which I'm grateful for.

Joe started a new blog about things he hates! Check it out at http://thingsjoehates.blogspot.com/

And in turn, I've decided to TRY to post about something that I really like (or perhaps love) each time I blog. Here goes for today...

Things Heather Loves...

1. Seeing the local corn stands come up each summer. I wish I had a picture. Anyway, these forest green stands are so country-ish that I just can't get over it! They make me glad that we live in Lehi where (almost) everybody knows your name. And when we eat corn later at home, we're always glad we came (or went, I suppose).

Gracie has had a few accidents but she'll get over them - she's doing great. I can't wait 'til both girls are done with diapers...
