A Pictureless Post

Sorry in advance for a pictureless post. I feel like my days are finally starting to be more than just feeding the baby and changing diapers. I think Josh is ready to start the potty training adventure, but I'm not sure I am. That is the plan for UEA break since Steve will be here to help out!
In other news, Steve is well on his way to finishing his master's degree. He has one class this semester and one more next semester and he will be done. All those graduate credits meant Steve was able to get 2 lane changes for this year's salary. (For those of you who don't speak teacher-ese, that means he got 2 salary bumps- but don't worry, it is still a pathetic teachers salary, just slightly less pathetic than before.) He is also teaching 2 night classes for Snow College, which means he is only home on Monday night and Friday night. It is all worth it though- it allows me to be at home with the kids.
I get to go back to my church calling this week- primary chorister. It has been SO nice to have a break, and I am a bit worried to see how it will all go on Sunday... makes it a little tricky to not have a break for more than 15 minutes the last 2 hours of church!
Josh is big and learning all the time. He is finally getting the hang of saying please- except it usually comes out "pretty pretty pretty puh-leeze". He is a great big brother too. Not much jealousy, and he is about as helpful as you could expect a two year old to be. He loves to hold his sister and give her kisses.
Abby is getting big too- it is incredible how much they grow each day. Already we have had to take some onesies out of rotation because they are too small. I'm loving having a girl- although the first couple times I put a dress on her, I had flashbacks to the times when my older siblings would dress my little brother up in doll clothes.
Well- that is what is new for us. Just busy as can be. Sorry again for the pictureless post, but give yourself a big old pat on the back for reading all of this!

Good luck with potty training! And I'm glad things are going well for you!

I'm excited that Steve is almost done! I wish Don were. It feels like we'll always be in school. Blah.
