Mother's Day!

I had such a wonderful Mother's Day this year!! I got to spend it with all of my boys...and sleep in!!! Ahhhhh!!! Felt like a million bucks!!! We celebrated at Chad's Mom & Dad's house with some swimming (Tyler and Ashton)...the water was frreeezing!! Beckett had surgery less than a week ago and I did not want him in the water just yet and he HATES cold water!!

Ashton potty training!!!!!! ***Woooooo Hooooooo***

Ashton is doing sooo good on the potty!!! Just last week he started to actually 'want' to go in the potty! I am so happy to say that he stayed dry the entire night last night and so far today (it is kinda early, but I am just excited) he has stayed dry and pottied. Here he is on the potty!!!! I am doing the potty dance over here right now with Ashton!!!! You don't know how hard and $$$$ it is having two kids in diapers. I will be jumping for joy when he is out....although, then that means he is really a big kid and no longer a baby.....hmmmmmmm.....that's okay with me!!!!! :))

Ear Tubes

My poor little Beckett just can not get rid of his ear infections.  They've been going on now for almost 2 1/2 months and it's one after another.  Last week, his pedi finally said she recommends tubes.  So, we saw an ENT who tested him and said he has lost a significant amount of his hearing (but, is not worried that after the procedure he will hear just fine). 
So, on Monday we went to the surgery center (just Beckett and I...yes, I was a nervous wreck that entire night and morning).  But, I am happy to say...it was simple and so quick.  He did AWESOME!  Hardly any tears!  We went home and he took an almost 2 hr nap.  I was so excited that I was going to finally get some sleep.  Unfortunately, he did not sleep too great the 1st night post-op.  I guess he had so much puss and mucus in his ears when they cleaned it all out.  Well, now he can more than likely hear everything ...every little sound.  Which is AWESOME!!!  I know it will get better with the sleeping.
Here is a before picture of Beckett waiting to get the tubes
 And, here he is sleeping so soundly.  I love him so much!!!
