I am officially considering Anna potty trained!! She wears big girl underwear all day and hasn't had an accident in at least a week. She even stays dry at night!
Is it possible? After 4 years, 2 months (with 1 year of 2 in diapers at the same time) I get a break from diapers??!!!
Whooohooo!!!
So proud of her, such a big girl!

My sweet boy
This pretty much sums up Jacob and his sweet personality. He was running a high fever yesterday and last night. At 2:00 in the morning he threw up on the floor while trying to run from his room to ours (from drainage). He also sweat through his PJs multiple times because of the fever. He was really sick. This morning he seems to be doing MUCH better thank goodness. He came up to me this morning out of nowhere and said "Mom, I'm really sorry I woke you up when I threw up last night". Are you kidding me?? He's crazy sick and worried about ME and waking me up :). Little does he know I had checked on him about every 20 minutes last night so there was no sleeping anyway. Jacob's always worried about keeping everyone happy, he is the sweetest child. Off to the Doctor

Frustrating potty day
SOOOOOOOOOOOOO....... we are working on Anna and potty training.
As far as TT she is doing great. She even stays dry while she sleeps. Poop is another story. We spend HOURS going to the bathroom every 5 minutes (because she tells me she has to go) only for her to be too scared to try. Even when we are out we CONSTANTLY go to the bathroom. She says she has to go, I scoop her up and run through the store like a crazy person to the bathroom only for her to say "I don't need to go". As you can imagine this is getting old and I'm a little scared to leave the house. At home she does the same thing. Once she FINALLY goes she is completely normal the rest of the day and only says she has to go potty when she really has to go. These videos are after a LONG morning of trying with no success. I was extrememly frustrated because she kept screaming she had to go and then wouldn't even try. She knew I was mad. I put the camera down (she didn't know it was on) and sat with her while we were eating lunch. I wasn't really talking to her because my patience was shot. She kept looking up at me without REALLY looking at me and then asked if I was mad. I just think it is so funny. The next video is just a little chit chat over lunch

First week of 4K
Jacob started school 5 days a week!! I've been pretty sad about it all summer but I know it will be good preparation for next year when he's in BIG school everyday for a much longer day.
Good news is, he loves it!!! All his friends from last year are in class with him again and he hasn't even noticed he goes every day compared to 3 days last year. When we pick him up he tells me EVERYTHING (litterally) that they did that day. He's full of excitement and really interested in learning. He will even get to go on field trips which I think he will love (and I'll get to chaperone). I can't wait to see how the year goes!
Anna and I keep busy while he's gone, the one on one time with her has been nice. We will do kindermusik, library story time, playgroup, and I will do a bible study (which means she gets to hang out with her friends that day too). On Jacob's first day of school Jake asked her what we did that day and she said, "we had girls day"!
We sure do miss our Jacob, picking him up from school is definitley the best part of our day :)

Summer, Sanders style
We had the best summer ever.
For starters, both kids had a birthday
We now have a 2 year old and a 4 year old
Anna turned 2 on May 6th and Jacob 4 on June 30th
We celebrated with friends and family at the park in Trussville. It was perfect!!
We of course went to Disney right after school got out which was the best trip ever and we are all ready to go back again!
We took a couple weekend trips to the river which was great. Both kids went on jet skis, boats and water slides. Waking up and having their friends there was super exciting for them too. We also spent a weekend in GA. The kids loved seeing everyone and we had a great time swimming, at the Laser show and GG’s party
The rest of the summer we pretty much spent our days at swim lessons, free movies, library events, lots of Birthday parties and just hanging out with our friends. Jacob did amazing at swim lessons; the difference from last year is amazing. Anna will start lessons next year; we always got to hang out in the pool too though. They actually both sat pretty good through a movie (with enough snacks) which was nice and most importantly air conditioned! Their ages this year were perfect!
It really was such a fun fast summer! Time flies when you’re having fun!
