A new addition and life

I have not blogged since May of 2011. I guess life got a little crazy. We moved into a new rental house, had a baby August 25th, Norah Sedona our little light and honor.Will have to write more later. I am going to blog hopefully more instead of FB. FB became too much for me so I do not hardly get on there anymore. If you want to know about what this family is up to check the blog.

Norah is 6 months old and oh so happy unless she is cutting a new tooth. She is rolling over, and not quite crawling.

Hudson is 3 and loves Iron Man and the color red. He keeps us on our toes and is a sponge to learning so much.

Bailey is in Kindergarten and loves to paint, draw, color, and do any craft you give her. She is our big helper of the house. She helps out her mommy and daddy so much with Norah and Hudson.

Have to go for now, fussy baby on my hands. Jon will be returning from a missions trip tonight more to come on that.I can't wait to have my hubby home.

The Newest Happenings

It is official.... Hudson has been potty trained for about 3 weeks now. I would have to say it was challenging and exhausting the first week, but we stuck it out as a family. I thought boys would be difficult but he did great. A friend had given me an ebook on the 3 day potty training. Is really any kid completely potty trained after 3 days? We did a sticker chart, tons of praise, new underwear(superhero ones, his fav is Batman, which he has never seen before.) It must be a boy thing. No diapers for 2 months until baby girl Norah decides to come visit our family. He has stayed dry at night and through naps for the most part, so proud of him. A church friend gave Hudson a potty chair, which made things a lot easier for mommy and daddy to help with the training. The seats which go one the toilet did not work with him. The potty chair has a guard on it which helps with the occasional boy stuff. He also uses "the big toilet," which he calls it when we are out and about.


Hudson continues to talk and repeat everything we say. He is so much fun and brings much laughter into the Anderson household.


Bailey will be finishing up her Pre-K year of school on June 10th. She graduates on June 11th and has her dance recital on the same day. Bailey has learned about butterflies and their crystalis. Bailey had an amazing Mother's day treat at school at the beginning of the month. She sang to me, served me goodies, made me a card, and made a decopodged flower pot with a marigold planted inside of it. Bailey has completely amazed me on what she has learned this year in school. She will do half day kindergarten in the Fall.


I am currently 27 and a half weeks pregnant. Moving right along and doing pretty good except for syotic nerve pain on left side where baby Norah sits. Hudson did the same thing to me. I am glad it is only a temporary thing. Ob appt went well. I got myself some nice stockings for my vericose veins I have developed. Oh yipee skipee!!!

Jon continues to be busy at work, and we continue to wait on our house short sale contract.

We hope all is well with everyone.
