Potty Training was a SUCCESS, at least for one of them

Gage has been doing REALLY well with the potty training. He only wears diapers at night. We just need to teach him that he needs to stay in the bathroom when he's done instead of walking like a peguin out to the frontroom to tell us that he went pee or poo. He got a Mater car because he is doing so well. GOOD FOR GAGE......now on to Jett but I think we will wait until summer when it's a little warmer.

Jett's 2nd Birthday!!

We finally had Jett's birthday tonight. It was great, Brett's family came over and we had soup, cupcakes and ice cream. Since Jett is really into sports we got him a Jazz jersery (he's wearing it in his video) Grandma and Grandpa Dredge, Jon, The Rodebacks and The Brown's got him a really cool toy. Its an ESPN better batter. I wish I had one when I was little. It is the coolest thing EVER! It's an outside toy but until it warms up and the snow is gone we will have to play inside. So far nothing has broken (knock on wood). and yes, he is batting left handed. I really hope he plans on taking care of mom and dad after he becomes famous!!

Happy New Year! and some other things

One of my goals for this year was to keep my blog updated as much as I could. So here it is the 3rd of January and I haven't even posted Christmas pics yet. Oh well, what can you do?

So I got Jazz tickets for Christmas! We also bought three tickets for Levi for Christmas and since we are the only people he knows here he took us! What a great brother! Thanks Levi!Brett opening presents
Levi opening presents (funny movie by the way)
Gage REALLY excited for his dinosaur playset (mom not so excited, took me an hour to put it together)
New pjs from Grandma Val
So far it's been a great year! I had surgery a week ago and everything is going well with the recovery. Not to go into too much detail, but no more kids for Brett and Jaycee. We sold one of the four wheelers because we don't really need two until the kids get bigger. Brett and I made it to midnight on New Year's eve. Jett's birthday was on Saturday. There's no pictures because we postponed the party til next week because Gage was sick. But other then that, it's been great! I can't believe Jett is TWO!!
