This summer we have been very busy and I have been very bad about keeping up with everything both on my blog and with pictures. So here are the latest accomplishments in the Hayworth household.
About a month ago we switched Naomi from diapers to underwear at Naomi's request. We went with the all or nothing and no looking back method of potty training. Underwear went on and we didn't use diapers at all during the waking hours. She still uses a diaper when she sleeps, but I am OK with that. We did not stay home during this time, but kept our regular routine. I carried extra clothes with me and just changed her when she had an accident. I am glad to report she is daytime potty trained.
Tonight we finished Josiah's "Strider bike". Thanks Wammy for the idea. We took the pedals and chain off his old bike and dropped the seat way down so that he could practice balancing on the bike before we take his training wheels off his big bike. It has proved to be a little harder for him than we thought it would be, but I think he will catch on soon.

MIA: This one is for you Dad!

This summer has been very busy and I have been exhausted most evenings after the kids go to bed. I haven't posted anything in a long time and my Dad informed me that it is time. So here is my very short post.
Greg and I went to Gatlinberg a few weeks ago with 7 other couples. We had a great time and came home tired.
The kids have spent a lot of time swimming and playing this summer. I have got into a workout routine at the YMCA and I think we are all staying relatively healthy. Naomi had a fever of 103 for 6 days straight last week, but feels better now. She also has a trigger thumb for which she is now getting occupational therapy for. If it doesn't resolve in the next 4-6 weeks we are looking at hand surgery to straighten her thumb.
Josiah is really into his Lego's this year and spends hours creating.
I cut my hair short last week. That's the news in a nut shell.
