YOU if you are reading this! You better do it!
Summer is over...sad! Zach starts school Sept. 2nd. I know he is ready to get back to see his buddies and start learning...but I am going to miss him. So this week, I tried to do a lot of fun things to end the summer. One day we went to the LA Zoo. The kids loved it! They have a petting animal section...not my favorite. But the kids enjoyed it.
The kids loved seeing all the animals and having lunch at the zoo. There were a lot of bees there...and anyone that knows me, I am not into bugs, insects, etc. I get a little nervous!! :) It has rubbed off on Zach a bit. I am trying to get him to "be tough" and like bees! haha! Anyway there was a sign saying the bees were part of the zoo...yeah right like they planned that! But Zach kept saying, "Man, I sure wish the bees weren't part of the nature!" I had to laugh, because I was completely saying the same thing in my head! It was funny! Anyway we had a great time and left smelling like animals! 
Then I also want to wish clear back in July my sister-in-law Joy a very belated HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! I wish we lived closer because I know we could be best shopping, etc. buddies...one year you either move back to CA or we move to UT!! Hope you had a great birthday! Sorry so late!
So I am totally embarrassed to post this...but I need HELP!! So I am not a first time mom, and I should know how to do this. But I can't seem to get Lauren even interested in potty training! I am embarrassed to admit Lauren is 3 years old and not potty trained....and I mean not even close. She wants nothing to do with it! I thought taking her to buy a musical potty would get her interested...nope! I thought buying her presents and showing them to her would do it...nope! Saying "don't you want to be a BIG girl"...nope. She said, "no me baby!" She wants to be a baby! What to do? I honestly have tried to let her run around in panties...that just causes messes! It doesn't even faze her until it's too late! I put her on her potty to sit and try to go and she just plays, or gets mad. So do I force? What do I do? Preschools don't allow kids unpotty trained in! HELP! All you knowledgeable mother's out there HELP!
Lauren turns 1!! (in need of a bow!!)
Lauren at 2 years old!
We love you Lauren!
And thought oh what the little stinker. I didn't think anything could come of her getting in my stuff. Well my mom asked to talked to Lauren...while they were chatting...I am sure my mom was startled when she heard me yell, "LAUREN LUCILLE LIND!" I grabbed the phone and told her I would call her back. Well I found Lauren's toys, aka the iron and a hot glue gun plugged in and laying on the carpet...HOT! 
I am just lucky that I caught the iron before it left a major mark. Good thing is we are renting. haha. I am joking! and who knows how much they will charge us for it! Little squirt!
