Another fun weekend at the in-laws

We went down to Delta this past weekend. Mike's sister was visiting from Idaho, so we wanted to go see her. We had to wait until Friday morning to go since Mike had school. The drive down there sometimes seems to take forever.
We just hung around a lot. Abigail played with everyone and had fun. She fell down the stairs again. This time because she was trying to carry the big green ball up the stairs. Brooklyn was good for the most part. She wasn't napping and Friday night, she showed everyone that she really does know how to cry. Mike finally took her on a ride and she fell asleep.
Saturday we made dinner we had ribs and potatoes. They were the best ribs I have ever eaten. Mike and his brother made them. It was just nice and relaxing to hang outside and talk to everyone.
We came home on Sunday after church and after we played rook with Mike's parents. Brooklyn didn't sleep the first two days very well but on Sunday took a nice long nap.

Attempting potty training

We have decided to potty train Abigail. I am just wondering how to go about it. We have the pull ups and I take her to the potty. But she just sits there and doesn't do anything. I am making sure she is drinking more, but still no going. I am just going to work on it and hope for the best.

If anyone has any tips please help. I will like it when I don't have to buy diapers for Abigail.

Going Private

I have decided to make my blog private. Not that I mind all people looking at it, but I don't know of some of the people. I have a thing that says where a person is from that visits my blog and I have started getting locations that say united states only and it kind of scares me. If you would like to look at my blog please leave your e-mail address. I am going to make the change in a week thank you

Why I hate facebook

Yesterday I got on face book. I saw what I thought was a video my husband had sent. So I thought if he sent something it would be good. I tried to look at it and it wouldn't let me so I closed it down. It turned out that it was a virus. It then proceeded to send this video link to all my friends.

I tried to stop it, but I couldn't. As soon as Mike got home he stopped it, by getting the virus off our computer which made it so it couldn't send it anymore. I have people now telling me I sent them I virus. I posted something as soon as I knew what it was doing for people not to open it. But yet some people didn't see that.

Mike said that there are viruses all over face book and that you have to be careful. I even somehow got one doing a quiz. I guess the scum people who send the viruses use it because it is a very good place for it.

I feel really bad for sending it. Even though I didn't do it on purpose.

Nightmares?

About every other night Abigail wakes up crying, or when we get up she is on the couch. We don't know why, but when we try to put her back in bed she cries. Last night she woke up crying about 3 in the morning. I went and got her, she was on the way out of her room anyway. I took her to the couch and cuddled her for a half hour. She fell asleep and I just left her there.

Someone told me this is about the age of night terrors. I just wish there was a way to get rid of them. We finally got the baby to sleep through the night, so it would be nice if she did.

Labor day

We had a fun labor day this year. We went down to Payson for onion days. The onion reason we really went was for the polish sausages with sautated onions on them. We went with Mike's brother and his wife and their cute baby boy.

My sister in law had to feed her baby right when we got there, so Mike and I walked around for a little bit. We decided to meet up with Mike at the carousel. As we were sitting there Abigail watched it and then said up. So I got her out of the stroller and she said she wanted to go on the ride. We had a little extra cash. So I went and bought tickets. She loved it. She didn't want to get off.

We then went and ate lunch. Mike bought Abigail a hamburger and she only ate the bun and the chips he bought. She then wanted to go on more rides so I took her. She went on a total of 4 rides. Mike stayed with his brother and had Brooklyn with him.

After the onion days. We went to Mike's brother's house and just sat around. We do that a lot we sit around and try to think of something to do. Mike and I finally left and we went to run errands. We went game stop so Mike could pay some pre-ordered games off. Then we went to Kohl's to look for a skirt for me. All of my old ones were not fitting right. We found me a skirt, a new shirt and shoes. I have a whole new Sunday outfit. I am so excited.

It was a good Labor day!

FHE

We have finally started doing FHE with Abigail. We have a short lesson then an activity. We have it on Sunday nights because Mike is gone in the evenings. Last night I gave a lesson on keeping the commandments. We told her a way of keeping commandments is to obey and to obey her parents. Because we know what is good for her.

There was then an activity where she got to go on a treasure hunt. I was kind of nervous that she wouldn't get it. But she did and did a great job. Whenever she found a clue she would go OHHHHHH!!!!! and jump up and down. At the end the treasure was some M&M's which she was so excited about.

I love how much they learn and know at this age.

Working out

I have decided that I want to lose weight. So I have been exercising. Mike bought me the wii fit. I have heard good things and bad things about it. When you first get on it, you get weighed and it tells you what you BMI is. Then you do a balance test. If you are not good at these balance tests your wii fit age gets older if you are good it is younger. My first day I was a 44 and today I was a 31. They have various exercises you can do. It is a lot of fun. I think the best part is Abigail will work out with me. She gets a controller then mimics what I do.

The other exercise I do is walking. There is a girl in my ward that I go walking with. Her husband works and goes to school too. So we both are usually home alone at night. It is just fun to have a friend close by. We decided in the winter that we would still work out but with the wii fit. The girls love going for walks. Abigail will ask me every night if we are going on a walk.

Even if I just lose 10 pounds I will be happy.
