The Weekend

Quick house update before I talk about the weekend.  We signed a contract on our house!!!  We signed it around 2 weeks ago.  We had the home inspection last wednesday.  Hopefully we will get the appraisal done soon so we can close.  We are suppose to close at the end of the month!  This is SUCH an answer to prayer.  Now all we have to do is find a place to live and close!!!

House news brings me to what we did over the weekend.  Britt and his dad tackled the list of things to-do from the home inspection.  They worked ALL day and got almost everything done!  So thankful for handy men in the family!  It was FREEZING saturday(like snow flurries freezing).  The boys, Kk, and I stayed inside and packed a few boxes.  Parker walked into the living room after took all the pictures off the wall and said, "Mommy, why does everything look not the same?"  He was not a fan.  He does not like change.  I am hoping the excitement of a "new" house will keep him from getting upset about the move.  We will see!

We also did a little potty training over the weekend...

How cute does Harry look in his training pants???  He did really well.  He didn't have any #1 accidents!  #2 is another story.  I DO NOT believe in using pull-ups, but until we get the #2 situation under control, I think that is what Harrison will be wearing.  I am not in to cleaning poopy underwear 3 times a day!  The boys spent the night at Kk and Jojo's saturday and sunday night.  Kk was good enough to keep up with the potty training.  No #1 accidents Sunday!   We took monday and today off.  We were gone for several hours both days.  Not ready for public potty training yet!  We will be back to the grind tomorrow.  Potty training wears a mommy out.  I will be glad when we are done!!!

Saturday night, Britt and I had a very glamorous night and order pizza and watched Ocean's 12.  It was so cold and we were both so tired from a long days work, it was the perfect night. :)  Sunday we ate lunch a Beagle Bagle and then drove around looking for rental houses in Jackson and Byram.  We called about one on Jackson and were able to go look at it.  We can't put a deposit down until the appraisal is done though.  After we finished driving around, I was craving Marble Slab.  We pulled into the parking lot to find that Marble Slab had CLOSED!!! What??? When did this happen??? I was so upset!  I settled for Baskin Robbins instead.  We watched, what else, but Ocean's 13 sunday night!  We finished our kid free time with breakfast at Cracker Barrel.  After breakfast, I rode with Britt to look at a house he is going to insure.  He dropped me back at my car, and I headed to get the boys.  It's nice to have a break every once in a while, but I am always SO glad to have my boys home!

I leave you with pictures of the boys in Parker's room after they cleaned it.  They did it all by themselves!  I was so proud of them!  I didn't hear one fight!
