Easter PA Style- Strike that... Potty Time!

I had started an incredibly funny and witty post about our day. Right in the middle of it, I was interrupted. I promise that I will write about our crazy snow filled Easter Egg hunt later, but I have better news!

Isaac pooped in the potty!

I can't believe that this is the excitement in my life, but it is... and I'm excited! He's almost 2 1/2, so it's time.

I'm not sure that is will stick, but hopefully! This is the first success we've had. He's usually afraid to even sit on the potty. Anybody with some tips, please let me know!


Here's a pic from our egg hunt! I'll tell you all about it soon!

The Countdown Begins

60 days!

In just two months, I get to transform from "home visitor", aka traveling preschool teacher, to "SUPERMOM", aka stay at home mom. This will be our second attempt at this transformation. When I had our first son at the end of 2005, we thought I'd be able to stay home with him. It didn't work out so great. Admittedly, I not sure I tried my hardest at it. Live and learn.

So, two years later, we've made a lot of changes. We had another baby boy in 2006, sold our cars (and made nothing), sold our house (and also made nothing), and moved back to the small town I grew up in. We're learning to live more frugally. Some days it's working better then others. But, it's working well enough that we're going to give single income another try.

It appears that the rumor mill at work has found out that I don't plan to return in the fall. I guess that makes it official. Yeah!

Day #1

This is the start of my blog. I promise there will be more content and stuff by the end of the week. I plan to use this space as a place to talk about all sorts of things, but mostly family, parenting, marriage, the funny things kids do, and general things along those lines.
