Gettin' Crafty Again

My new bag!

Chelsey's Bag--it'll be in the mail on Tuesday!

I found the link for this tote bag on a blog and knew I just had to have one. I thought it would be perfect for a small on-the-go diaper bag. My sister-in-law Chelsey was also looking for a smaller diaper bag, so she picked out fabric and I told her I'd make her one too (I had no idea if I could even do it or not). I finally got around to making them! It was super easy! I'm totally loving it! I will definitely be making more of these!

Funny Girl

Whitney has been so funny lately! We brought the baby activity center in on Saturday and she had a blast in it. She was singing at the top of her lungs into her "microphones." We had some friends over for a BBQ and I asked her if she wanted to get out and come back outside--her answer: "No, I wanna stay in here and sing!"

Here's what happened when she got into today after almost 2 hours at the park! Too funny!

Last night I was pulling out old plants from my flower beds and she was outside helping Mike paint the foundation. She came around the front of the house and said, "We found a snake." I responded, "A SNAKE!" She said, "No, a turtle." It turns out that it was really a worm and she didn't want anything to do with it--smart girl!

Swimmin'

For my sister-in-laws birthday on Saturday, we had a fun-filled day in Billings! The girls left early and did a little shopping, then we met the guys at Red Robin for lunch. After lunch we headed to The Reef, an indoor water park. Whitney had been so excited about going swimmin' all week, but unfortunately she started to get sick on Friday night. She skipped out on the shopping and came up later with Mike so that she would be rested. She looks a little under the weather, but she still had fun swimming. Both kids slept all the way home. Whitney is still running a fever and her voice is pretty hoarse. Wilson has been fussy, so I think he's a touch sick too. Hopefully, they will get healthy quick!

Potty Training

We've really been working on potty training for a few weeks now. My mom got her started when she was here at the end of March. She's doing pretty well and I'm so grateful not to be changing diapers for 2! She usually sits like this when she's on the potty, then her face lights up when she goes--it's so cute!

Smiley

Wilson has turned into a sweet, smiley little boy. In a matter of about two weeks, his colic went away! He is so goodnatured and, he will smile just for saying hello. He is trying really hard to sit up. He's also trying to roll over a little. He sticks his legs up in the air and falls to his side. Yesterday at church, my friend April was holding him during Sunday school and I was sitting on one side of her and another girl named Valerie was sitting on her other side. He would look over at me and start wimpering, then he'd turn and look at Valerie and totally turn on the smiles and charm. What a flirt! I guess we've got a ladies man on our hands! We are having so much fun with him!
