Zachy's Big Day

Well on August 27th my little Zachary turns 3. It is so very sad. We were in Ohio this past weekend and had a party for him at the park. He had such a blast. I was so happy we were able to have it there with all of our family and friends.
Here he is blowing out the candles.
(If you know what's good for you, please tune out my singing, thank you.)

Race Day

Back in February, I bought my husband and I tickets to the Watkins Glen Nascar Race here in New York. So two weeks ago was race day. My parents came for the weekend to watch the kids for us. We had pit passes and spent the whole day there. The weather was on and off cloudy sunny but still really hot. Not a drop of rain! So we did everything we could possibly do before the start of the race and then headed to our seats. Literally 20 seconds before the announcer says "Gentlemen start your engines" he instead begins to tell us there is a storm coming and run for your life. Okay maybe not like that but basically like that. We had to leave the grandstands and take cover underneath. Below in the video I took of us "taking cover."

The race never did happen that day.

It was postponed until Monday the next day at noon, when my parents would be driving back home, therefore leaving us no sitter.

No we did not attend the race:-(

But we still did have a great day together!

P.S Why does the video always have to freeze on my face and make me look like some goof???

Dirty Feet

Today I was able to meet Clarissa from The Diary of a POSHpreneur. We met at a local Mcdonalds with a playplace. It was really fun to have adult conversation while the kids played. Thanks Clarissa we had a great time.
Now watch this little vlog I did when we got home about their dirty feet!

Wordless Wednesday

This was taken 2 years ago. I can hardly believe it! My little Zachary will be 3 in just a few weeks.

Potty training

Well this past weekend we had a lot to do with our construction project so we knew we would be home all weekend. So we decided this would be the weekend of potty training Zachary. Let me start off by saying that my mom potty trained my first two. Being that my kids are so close in age I just couldn't stay consistent with it. So my mom took them each for a week at her house and they came home trained. Thanks mom! Now however we live in New York and that's not possible. I have to say I was a little scared about the situation. Zachary is a very good kid. He is very smart but oh so stubborn. He has to be he is the youngest. Well as much as I thought that would make our situation worse it actually made it better. Once he sat on the potty he wasn't getting up until he went. I would tell him "buddy go play and come back when you have to go" but he wouldn't. He sat until he went and went he did! So after one weekend of nakedness (this is the absolute key) we have a potty trained boy. My hubby is seeing dollar signs of all the cash we will be saving not buying anymore pull ups. So I am hoping he keeps up the good work, as this fall approaches and it will be a time of change for us all.
