Colton's 2nd Birthday!

My baby will be 2 years old December 17th but due to the craziness of December with everyone having so much to do we decided this year to go ahead and have his party today. It worked out great! We might try and do it the Saturday after Thanksgiving every year.

I cannot believe that he is getting so old. Feels like yesterday that we were bringing him home from the hospital.

My blog is messing up since I changed backgrounds and won't let me upload and pics but once I figure it out I will put some on here.

Second Thanksgiving

Well Friday morning we headed to Cordova again for our second Thanksgiving at the Kenney's. Jon's brother, Daniel, moved to Nashville back in March and none of us had seen him since so it was GREAT to spend time with "Uncle Daniel" and get to catch up.

We played card games and catchphrase. We had fun and when lunch was almost ready the element in the oven caught on fire! As we hurried to get all the cooked food out the back door others decided what needed to be done, do we call the fire dept or do we use the fire extinguisher?!??!

After getting everything out of the way, Sarah pulled the pin and sprayed the fire. Nothing...did it again....Nothing. They then decided to just close the oven door to cut off the oxygen to the fire. Smart. The fire died...but the kitchen was covered in dust from the smoke and fire extinguisher.

So we ate our lunch outside on the patio table. Nothing like a quick change of plans but it was alot of fun and we definately made memories that will last!

Here are a few pics of the day...

First Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving!!! We had a wonderful day today and we are very excited about tomorrow. For the last 6 years Jon and I have been hitting both parents houses for Thanksgiving all in one day. It was very exhausting, even more so once we threw kids into the mix. But this year we decided to do the Lawyer's today and the Kenney's on Friday.

It was so nice to just relax with family and not be in a rush to get to the other house. We are so excited about spending the day with Jon's family tomorrow!

Hard to believe that this is our last Thanksgiving with just Coop and Colt. We are excited to see our family at this time next year with 3 kiddos!!! :)

Here are a few pictures of Thanksgiving at the Lawyer's...we took our dogs, Griz and Donut, with us and they tried to make it in a few pics!

In random order...ENJOY!

Doing Well

I dont remember what happened day 4 and so on but we are into our second week and he is doing awesome! I am glad that diapers are gone for at least 7 months! :)

Colton and I are enjoying a rainy Monday by staying in our pjs and taking naps!

We are excited that Cooper is out of school all next week and we get him for 9 days! I am sure by the end of the 9 days I will be ready for him to go back b/c he is a bundle of energy 24/7. And he LOVES school, I mean LOVES school! His teachers are wonderful and we couldn't have asked for a better first year!

Not much going on this week but that is a good thing b/c next week is crazy with Thanksgiving. We love getting to hang out with both of our families and this year for the first time we are doing them on different days so we can spend more time with each one!

We have so much to be thankful for and today I am thankful to be expecting our 3rd baby. Didn't know if this would ever happen or when it would happen but we are extremely happy and even though I am sick, I am thankful that our baby is growing!

Day 3

Well today wasn't one of our better days at the Kenney household.

Potty training while having morning sickness ALL day can turn out to not be enjoyable by anyone.

Colton did have a good day, only 2 accidents all day but was very stubborn through most of it.

Hoping Day 4 brings a good day for everyone!!

Day 2

Well here we are 2 days into this and Colton is doing Amazing!!!

I went shopping with my mom today and my WONDERFUL husband stayed with Colton and sat by the potty most of the day but I think they had fun.

I was very nervous about taking him to church tonight but I packed a bag with 3 sets of clothes in case he just didn't go for it.

I went to his class and HE WAS IN THE SAME CLOTHES I BROUGHT HIM IN!!!!!!!

He went potty twice with his teacher. He loves those ladies and they do an incredible job with our kiddos.

So Day 2 is a success!!! I am so impressed with how well he is doing! He is just growing up too fast!

He's Doing It!

Well after he woke up from his nap he went on the potty for the first time!!!

He was so excited and I sure did make a big deal out of it!

Praying the rest of the week gets better and better! I will update again tomorrow on our progress.

Potty Training Day 1

Am I crazy?!?!?

My son went to the bathroom yesterday in his diaper and then came right over to me and told me what he did, then laid down for me to change him...

So we started potty training in full swing today. He has yet to go in the potty but has definately found other places to go.

He looks so old sitting on the potty and I am praying that we will soon have a break through. Its only 12:30 so we shall see what the rest of the day brings!
