Visitors :)





About two weeks or so ago my friend Rachael and her son Gunner came to visit from Idaho. They came over in the evening and played for about 2 hours. It was GREAT to see them, we were friends and roommates in college. Kalista loved playing with Gunner!! My dad and brother stopped by for a visit that same night, Kalista loves to see Grandpa and is always saying Adam whenever she sees a boy that is about 17 or 18, well a good looking boy i should say haha.... Here are a few shots from that night :)

SWIMMING!!






Kalista LOVES to go swimming at the Family Fitness Center close to our house. They have this Duck Slide she would go down a hundred times if we'd let her. The last time we were there a lady had some little blow up swimming wings her daughter hated so she asked if we wanted them. Kalista LOVES them. It's so cute seeing her "swimming" with them on. We took her and Olivia there about a week ago and they had a BLAST!! If anyone wants to go with us let us know :)

Potty Training!




I started potty training Kalista about a week or so ago and she is doing WONDERFUL!! I'm so proud of her :) She's had a few accidents here and there but for the most part she's been great. I think the reason she is catching on so quick is because i introduced her to the big potty at 4 months old.. I know it sounds crazy but she started going pee on the potty every time I put her over it since she was 4 month so she already knew that's what the potty was all about. It's been GREAT.. Olivia, the girl I nanny, on the other hand has been potty training for over 7 months and still to this day will not go when i ask if she needs to and won't tell me when she needs to and pees in her pants on a daily basis... ANY TIPS WOULD BE GREAT!! I know if it were up to me I'd put her back in diapers and just wait till SHE is ready but I'm not her mom..... Advise anyone? OH and i should mention with Olivia I have tried EVERYTHING!! Potty treats, potty chart, setting the potty timer... nothing has worked and I'm all out of ideas..

A Hike/Picnic





Well, we wanted to go on a hike the other weekend but once we got up the Canyon it started to sprinkle a bit so we decided to stay close to the car. We went into this little "nook" that has a waterfall and let Kali throw rocks into the water, which she LOVED, and ate our lunch. It was so nice to get away from the city and enjoy nature. Here are a few Pics from that trip.
