300, Potty Training and Blueberries

300. That's how many posts I have on this blog. When I started blogging, I wasn't sure if I'd enjoy it, wasn't sure if people would care, and wasn't sure if I'd continue it. Over two years later and 300 posts later, I'm still at it! And I love it. I can't believe how many times I reference old posts for info (most recently, "When did we pick blueberries last year?). I still enjoy it and have no desire to quit anytime soon.

Potty Training. Henry is doing awesome. I'd say he trained in a day. He for sure wakes up dry from naps, and even with a pull-up on at night, he's been waking up dry! What a relief that it was so easy for us! I really think the key (Becky, are you listening, you asked for advice!) is to WAIT. Both of my kids were about three...and both potty trained very easily.

Blueberries. We went blueberry picking yesterday with my mom, Lois and Brett. It was a gorgeous day and we had a great time picking tons of blueberries! We came home with 20 pounds which will last us a little bit, but we'll end up getting more before the season is over. Here are a few pics from yesterday! :)

u thank you THANK YOU, B! I've been going back and forth all week debating Eden's readiness, and this post just confirmed that I need to chill out and give it some more time. What a relief. :)

Blueberries already, huh? I guess I'd better make work of getting that chest freezer for the basement... mmm!

I felt the same way when I started blogging last fall... the last thing I felt I needed was another instrument of time suckage on the dingdang computer... but alas, here I am! Thanks for writing. :)

Oh, and way to go, Hanks!

Congrats to Hanks!! So glad things are going well in the potty training area, I've heard it can be such a rough thing..but I totally agree with you that you have to wait for them to be ready!
I have 5 friends potty training their boys right now and all of them seem to be doing very well..and they are all almost 3 or over 3 years.
