We have some exciting news to report....Josh is starting a new job as a Landman tomorrow at Shell. The position just fell into his lap thanks to our Lord, and he is really excited about getting into the position he has been working toward. He was sad to leave Marathon and all his friends there, but he knows they will definitely stay in touch. So with that said, he took a week off before starting the new job. We decided to head down to Galveston for a little vacation. It was just our little family, and what was going to be a relaxing vacation turned a little stressful. We thought it would be a perfect time to potty train Avery. We could tell she was ready, but this has been so hard. We always heard girls were easier than boys, but I would hate to see how hard it is with a boy. Anyway, she is making progress but definitely not completely potty trained. We had an accident at Babies R Us when we got home and one at a restaurant not long after the BRUs accident. So she left the restaurant with no pants because I only brought one change of clothes. We are not leaving the house without a pull-up on for a while. Any guidance would be appreciated :)
Josh caught a beautiful 23 inch redfish off the back dock at 1AM. He woke me up to take a picture of it. He had a ball fishing at night after the girls went to bed.
We spent the majority of the week pant-less (she must have been shirt-less at this point too). We hardly went to the beach.
She got a sucker if she did #2 in the potty. Only got two of those the whole week. We decided to nix that reward...too messy.
The day before we left we ventured out to the beach with a potty in tow. She actually went twice at the beach.
Tried to get a photo of the girls but seconds after I snapped this pic Avery was done with this and slightly pushed Amelia into the sand. We freaked out, but Amelia was happy as can be. On another note, Amelia is seven months and started sitting up all by herself yesterday.
Sweet smiles
One last potty stop before heading back home. Next time we will go for just a vacation.
