Last night

Last night went well with connor in underware. He slept all night with no accident again! Yes!!! He woke up and came in with me for a little while then went downstairs to his little potty and went potty! I am really liking this. Also, around dinner time my mom noticed that connor's eyes were goopy, sadly at the doctors today we found out he has pink eye in both eyes and an ear infection! Yuck! Poor little guy. He is really brave though, he doen't even act as if it bothers him. He just keeps on going! What a trooper. I really wish i had his energy and determination to not let it get him down. When i am sick it wipes me out! Way to go Connor! You rock!

Sleeping in underware

Last night connor fell asleep in my arms while watching a movie! I was in heaven! One of my favorite things is when my kids fall asleep in my arms. Something which has not happened in a very long time. Now it is a huge routine mess to get naps in and later bed time! Anyway, i took him upstairs and laid him down. I was intending to go in later when he was in a deeper sleep and replace his underware with a pull-up. I forgot until this morning when i heard brock telling connor how great it was that he slept all night in underware and didn't pee the bed. I was so happy!!!! I am a little scared to try again for fear he will tonight. I guess this is where plastic comes in handy. Well, wish me and connor some luck tonight!

The rest of survivor

It was a really awesome weekend! They spent a few hours in the canyons. They ran to find envelops in the tall weeds, broke the tiles they painted, balanced on a v shaped brick, and other things. Then that night we went to the Arts park where we found out Brock's team won and brock got to move on. The final 6 ate red peppers with hot sauce, bobbed for barbie parts then had to put them together, dug through pudding for coins, eat pickeled pigs feet, sardines, and then drank clam juice. Brock came in second by a second. It was so close. Way to go Brock!!!

Survivor Springville 2008

The winner of Survior China lives in Pleasant Grove and his brother-in-law or some kind of relation lives in Springville and they decided to do a mini Survivor in Springville. Brock's mom and sister are HUGE fans. His sister lives in Oklahoma and would have flown out but tickets were a little expensive. So they talked Brock into doing it. Last night was a dinner and I got to go along. It was a lot of fun. I don't watch Survivor so I wasn't as excited to meet the people but the activities they did last night were fun to watch.











us, 2nd place (i think her name is courtney), Todd the $1 million winner, and Frosti (i don't know if that's his real name). All really nice, fun people.











Above: Their first challange. To find playing cards listed on this paper and then turn them over to spell a word. They had a bunch of cards hanging on a line held by cloths pins (i don't know why the picture wont load on here?) and then each player ran and found a card one at a time. After all were found you had to spell a four word phrase. Frist one to finish wins. We didn't. But we got close. They only listed ten cards and we needed eleven so the words weren't making sense. Oh-well. It was fun to watch.









Then they made a flag. Here they are looking at it. We didn't win.....










Brock's team flag. It says animo, which i guess means energy or something similar to it, in Spanish.









Brock doing the final challange. They stacked dishes on the gold plate one at a time until the person dropped it. All the people actually went a long time and brock could have gone longer but one of his cups fell off and they lost....


Tonight they will do a swimming challange at the Springville Pool and then tomorrow they are spending about 4 hours in Hobble Creek Canyon. They havent said whats going on then. I am excited to see more!

potty training

Connor is finally potty trained!!! I am so excited! Abby decided she wanted to sit and the potty and connor wanted to do it cause she was and he went! Since then he has been going on his own. I finally got him to go on a "big" potty (regular toilet instead of dora training potty). He still doesn't like wearing underware but all in all it is great having less diapers to buy and change!

Hives and jeans

I found out today that i am allergic to...well...something. I took some supplements today that i have been taking for about a month with this workout i have been doing. Apparently i am allergic to something in them. I had a small reaction before but i didn't realize thats what it was. So as i sat eating breakfast my nose started burning like a bad sun burn. I ran up stairs to look in the mirror and by the time i got there my whole face, ears, arms, and hands were burning and bright red! It was crazy. I started to really freak out. I could still breath fine but decided to go to the doctors anyway, because i was freaked out. Of course all they did was give me benedryl and waited to see if it worked and then sent me home.
On a more positive note, I am in a size 8! YES! I am so excited. After three years I finally have the drive to make it happen! I am excited to be healthy for me and for brock and our kids!

Graduation

My baby brother graduated on June 3rd! AHHH! I can't believe it! That makes me old! I am so proud of him and all the he has become! He is so on top of things and is already to head off to college this fall!
