Well, so here's the news. Shane has our computer, so atleast we've taken the first step to getting it fixed. Hopefully he'll get it up and running soon. We've been without our computer for well over a month now. I feel kind of bad because as far as I'm aware, my sister's, mom's, and aunt's blog backgrounds are all still featuring Easter...right where I left it before I was shut down. I usually switch it up for them every now and then, but haven't been able to lately. Sorry!
We haven't gotten around to getting Courtney her potty chair yet, either we forget everytime we're at the store, or darn those bills who leave us with next to nothing, so by the time we have our groceries there's nothing left to buy it with. So the potty training is at a stand still. Though she's so cute about it, she'll pat my cheeks to make sure I'm paying attention, then tells me, "Mommy, I'm pooping" and she'll pat her bum. She then proceeds to drag me up the stairs into her room where she grabs a diaper, hands it to me, then lays on the floor and waits with an expectant look on her face.
In other news, (haha, i feel like i'm writing a newspaper article) we have found the most amazing wonderful dream home and land we could ever imagine possible in the PERFECT location out in the country at the base of the mountains on an acre of fully mature land... rose bushes everywhere, fruit trees, gates, fences, outbuildings, sidewalks, it's like the secret garden. We could have the biggest garden ever that i could can and it would feed us for the rest of our lives. Though the inside needs gutted and remodeled. That's fine though because then we could make it exactly what we want. So we're in the process of trying to get this place and get our current home sold. Hopefully the this place is still available by the time we're able to make an offer. (which is VERY unlikely, but it's nice to dream about!)
With Courtney growing so darn fast and learning so much so quickly I thought I'd take advantage of it and have started doing pre-school with her each morning. We work on numbers, counting, alphabet, puzzles, painting, playdough, music, reading stories, etc. She absolutely loves it and it amazes me how much and how quicky she picks up on things! She's also coming up with the funniest sentences. The other day after it rained, she and Jeremy were outside and she said, "Daddy, I see a puddle of water!" then the edge of the patio dripped water on her and she said, "Drip Drip Drip!" .
One last funny side note, the other night at like 3 am she woke up screaming. Her problem? She wanted to wear her princess shoes. Right then. I finally gave in, put them on her, and she went right back to sleep. Silly child.
Well this is a forever long post, and i hate doing posts without pictures, so i'll end this here. Hopefully we'll have our computer fixed soon and I can post a billion pictures that have been accumulating on my camera over the past month ; )
