Short but Sweet

I feel so disconnect from the blog world. This past week was a new experience all together and I’m trying to organize my way back to reality. I feel like I’m so far behind on all of your blogs and I have this overwhelming feeling that I’ll never catch up. I am going to try to set some time aside in the next few days to do so! I miss you all terribly!

Your encouragement through this potty training process was incredible! I’m pleased to announce that Jayden is potty trained!!! Today was the ultimate test when I took him to the babysitter with no diapers. I packed multiple pairs of underwear and extra pants just in case. I prayed all day that he would be ok. I came to pick him up at 2 today and the sitter said with a big smile on her face that he had no accidents!!! YAY!! She even said that he told her when he had to go!! I’m super excited!! All that hard work really paid off!! So thank you all again for your prayers and encouragement! It really helped!!

I still have so much to do, so I’ll keep this short. I’ll do my best to stop by all of your blogs and get caught up. Again thank you all for everything. I’m so proud of my little man!! (you can see, but I’m doing a little dance)

So excited for you and Jayden! I know how you feel about being behind on blogs. It happens so easily then it's kinda stressful until you get caught back up. Hope your weekend was fabulous!

WOW!! That's awesome for you!! I'm keeping my fingers crossed that my daughter wants to be trained by 2 (before baby #2)...she's obsessed with the Potty Book right now, so I'm hoping it keeps up.

Nicole said...

Abby said...

I will totally be seeking your advice in about 9 months! No more diapers!!!! Yahoo :)

Miss Jody said...

Yay for your goal on Potty-Training!! Yay!!!
Now, Listen Momma.
We are all busy. We are all some sort of a wife/girlfriend...Mom/Doggie-Momma..so it's Okay!
We have all been there and have been so busy-crazy, that life just...happens. It's cool. Blogging IS NOT suppose to be homework, a chore, a toture chamber, or something you feel bad about, because you just blog and post ( get this....) whenever!!
Yip. Whenever your heart desires! That is the fun of blogging. Blogging is supposed to be your out-let. Don't stress. Just go to the last of each of the ladies you like to see "what's up" and comment on that..Ta! Da!!!
You'll always be one of my favs, even when you quit commenting on my post. I'll still keep checking your blog! :)
All the Ladies I follow are so interesting and I feel like I know them!
Just like you Lady :)
Have a great night :)

Stephanie said...

Whoo Hoo!!!!!! Awesome news!

You're right it's so overwhelming when you get behind. You feel like it just keeps stacking up and you'll never catch up. Don't worry about and just get to it whenever you can. Sometimes I just pick up and don't worry about everything else...Hope you have a great week!

Annie said...

Kelsey @ Seattle Smith's said...

Seriously, I feel so overwhelmed when my google reader gets out of control. I have this obsession where I have to get through them all and read them, but it's getting out of hand!! haha, I could spend hours catching up on blogs, so you take care of your family and come back to us when you can.

YAY for potty trained punkin heads!!

Sass said...

Jill said...

woo hoo!! what a great accomplishment!!

and you know, sometimes you just have to "mark all as read" in the google reader and move on. it stinks and it's not fun, but the overwhelming feeling goes away and you can ENJOY blogs and leave good comments instead of going about it halfway. :)
