Wee.......
Carter is officially diaper free!!!!! We have been nightime potty training him for about the last three weeks and it has been a huge success thanks to this miracle invention, the Wet-Stop 3. He had at least one accident a night for the first week, but has been almost accident free for the last 2+ weeks. It is so nice to only have to worry about one set of diapers now. One down, one to go.....
The Race
Ah, the race....Brent ran his frist half marathon last weekend and did great. He finished in 2 hours, which was actually very impressive since he really isn't a runner and didn't do a ton of training. If you notice there are no pictures of Brent at the race because we never saw Brent at the race. That's right, we went there, spent hours there (approx 4 1/2) and never saw him. I got there early, got my spot set up, dealt with the boys whining and running away from me, people crowding me and trying to take my spot....three hours later, they announced on the big speaker that the finish line for the half marathon was at a different location!!!!! There were over 100,000 people there so I was not happy. I made a quick attempt to find him, but realized very soon that I would never find him and hoofed it back to the car and drove home. The best part of the story is that Brent beat us home....yep! This was not a race that I wanted to go to (because of all the reasons mentioned above), and will not be going to another one by myself with the boys during this stage of their lives. I told Brent the only way I will go support him at a race ever again is if we are by ourselves and make a vacation out of it. I am thinking maybe the Rock and Race in Savannah sounds nice? Soccer
Super pleased with himself after scoring a goal.
He is taunting the other team....honestly.
Soccer...where do I begin? Most of you know how the soccer season is going so far, but for those of you that don't I will give you a quick run-down. I hate the organization (terribly disorganized), our coach knows nothing about soccer, and we have 5 people on our roster (it is a 6v6 league). We have had three games so far and at every one of them Carter has had some sort of dramatic crying session, but once he gets over it he has a great time and always leaves very pleased with himself. The crazy thing is that he actually seems to have a lot of natural ability, so hopefully he can find some inner strength and we can find a good organization for him to continue on with. Dirty Faces
I am forever trying to take close up pictures of the boys so that I can blow them up and do some fun things with them, but everytime I try, this is what I get. Faces full of snot, ketchup, crackers, rashes....the list goes on and on. Very frustrating!!!! I think it is time for Photoshop.
