vomit, wedding, and potty training

So Thursday we got in the car to make our way to Utah for Bryce's brother's wedding. Robert was tired and we have now learned that starting on a trip when he is tired is bad news. He threw up all over the back seat of the car not once but twice before we were even out of Bremerton. He kept spitting up until we reached Pendleton where we were able to think and bought crackers and seven up for him. After that it was smooth sailing. We got into Logan at 2:30 in the morning and slept for 4 hours before Robert insisted on getting up.

Bryce's parents and sisters arrived Friday evening and we spent some time talking and figuring out the plan for the next day before people went to bed. It was a kind of early morning. Looking back I should have gotten up earlier so that I could have gotten everything done with a little time to think before we left for the day's activities.

We had lunch with Judy's family before the wedding. It was yummy. The sealing was wonderful they had an awesome sealer. It was neat to be there and see my husband with his brother. They are brother's but they are also really good friends. We spent some time at the mall before the reception. The reception was beautiful. It was small and sweet. If I had it to do over again I would go with the size they had. I liked it. Don't worry I have pictures of it. And just for all of you Judy's mom made Judy's dress. It was really pretty.

Now we are back home and potty training is in full swing at our house. Robert is doing pretty good. He has only had one accident in his underwear in two days. He gets so happy. It is funny he will run into the bathroom and then wait for you to help him. He then stands there and says its coming over and over again until he starts to pee. (I am a mom I get joy out of these little accompishments that my little boy has)

I think thats it except for pictures.


The cake was really good



I saved this one for last because it is my favorite.

So it has been about a week since Halloween and I finally put the pictures of Robert on the computer. He announced once we were finished with Trick or Treating that Halloween was fun because he got to get candy. He seems to be growing up so fast. He is talking so much more now and asking to call people and then actually talking to them. He loves the show Arrested Development. Church is still his favorite place to go. My favorite thing he does though is he will bring me one of his scripture readers and ask me to read him a story from it. He also will sing the sunbeam song for you all by himself now.

As for the rest of us well Bryce and I not much has changed. We are still getting up at 5 to work out every morning. We will be going out of town next weekend (the 13-16) for his brother's wedding. We are looking forward to it because we will get to see his family and my mom on that trip. I took a couple pictures of what it looks like from our back door and I'll put one or two of them on this entry. We are starting to get excited for Christmas because it will be just the 3 of us this year so it will be up to Bryce and I to make it amazing for Robert. Bryce I think is more excited for it that Robert is. Well I think thats it so now for pictures.

Go Speed Racer


Go Speed Racer


GO Speed Racer GOOOOOO!
As many if not all of you know he dressed as Speed Racer for Halloween this year. He loved it and even carried a monkey with him and told people it was ChimChim.


Hannah this picture is just for you because you have been asking for so long to see a picture of him in his puppy towel.

This is the beautiful sight from our sliding door! It is great to be able to look out and see this.

Robert got these clothes in the mail this week and wanted to try them on and take his picture. I tried to get him to put a shirt on first but he would have nothing to do with it.
