Here's an update

Greetings, It has been forever since we have been posting. Things have been a bit busy around here with my MBA term winding down and a bunch of in state travel. I am over half way done with my MBA and am excited for the upcoming winter break. I should be all done come this time next year.

Hailey is really growing and you'd be amazed at how well she is talking. We had some conferences with her school teacher (yeah I know crazy that a two year old has conferences) and as you would expect she is going great. She has come a long way in her potty training and I'm so excited to not have to change the diapers. Wiping for someone else will take some getting used to though.

Beth's job is in high gear and she has been working out a ton at LA Fitness. I got on the racquetball train playing against Gary and he has pretty much worked me every game. The exercise feels good though but man, that ball can be tough to hit sometimes.

We will be in the area for Thanksgiving and GR over Christmas so mark your calendars for some holiday madness.

Hailey & Lily in Des Moines

Last weekend we met our friends Sara, Taron and Lily in Des Moines for some fun and swimming. The girls really missed each other and loved playing together.


Potty Training

Potty training has been going really well. She maybe has 1 accident a day and is waking up dry on most mornings. Go Twins. BTW- that is marker on her hand not poo.
