September's catch-up, Part A

We went to my grandparents house for labor day weekend. This is my Maw Maw. The pictures from the "guitars" post was the same weekend.

This picture was taken September 4th. Claire was about to poop in her diaper (cloth diaper) and I thought, now that she's eating some solid food, I don't want to have to clean the diaper...maybe she'll poop on the potty. Sure enough, she did. I took a picture of it, but Tyler thought it was gross, so I deleted it.

Anyway, she has pooped on the potty every day since then, with few exceptions, for which I am very thankful.

Have you missed me?

Dear Diary,
Ok, ok. Four months is an incredibly long time to not post. Why the silence? I've been really busy. In September I started watching two boys, Sebastian (Bozzy) and Corbin. They are here on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I don't get on the computer those days. I also try to stay off it during the weekends. That leaves Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, which are the days that I go to water aerobics, MOMS Club events, and run errands.

That being said, in my free time from September through December I was sewing diapers, and working on Claire's Christmas stocking. I got behind on photo organization, and for some reason, I like to post pictures when I write. Also, our camera broke on Halloween, and it was out of the loop for about a month. I'm going to try to do mini "catch-up" posts as I have the time, so stay tuned.

PS. You should also know, that I've never been able to keep a diary. I have at least three diaries from when I was younger. They have several entries at the beginning, and then are blank. I started one when Tyler and I first got married...I think I left off somewhere on our honeymoon... I try to keep travel journals...no luck there either. Lauren's baby book? Somewhat filled out, but much to still be journaled. Claire's baby book? I think I have her name and birth stats in it!
