p.s. I really did go fix the word photos....Looking at it, I have no idea what the H**l I was thinking.

Camping in the backyard!!

As a reward for Reedley waking up dry for the last several days, Mark agreed to camp with her in the backyard. Reedley had been struggling with wetting her Pull-ups at night. Mark and I decided that maybe she had been using them as a crutch and she was just being lazy. So, we refused to let her wear them at night! We figured if she wet the bed enough times, maybe she would stop. Sure enough, with the exception of a few times, she has done a great job!! Once she realized it wasn't fun waking up wet and she could use her bathroom at night if she needed to, waa laa!

Mark being a better parent than I, spent the night in the tent placed on the patio. Why not on the grass? Well, he didn't want to pick up the dog poop!! Notice, the toys and books that Reedley had to have with her!!

The next morning was pretty rough on Mark, so I spared him the picture taking.

A Day at the Park!!

We went to the park today. Reedley loves going and meeting new "Best friends" as she calls them. Unfortunately, no one else was there:( Raidon had a great time too because we just let him go hog wild. We didn't tell him no or try and redirect. We just let him go CRAZY!! It was worth it because they both had a blast and Daddy got to take some great photos with his wazoo camera!!

Kung Fu Fighting!!

Well, it has begun. Mark started training Reedley in fighting. I am actually surprised that it took this long. He couldn't wait for his kids to get old enough to start training. Before Reedley was born and we were preparing her room for her arrival, we wrote messages on her wall before painting. These messages were words of encouragement or hopes and prayers for our little girl. While I wrote things like, I can't wait to meet you and mushy stuff like that, Mark wrote, "Don't worry, if a boy breaks your heart, you will know how to break his wrists." So, I think it is safe to say that Mark has been waiting for this day!!

It really is cute to watch....he has even trained her on the correct way to yell when hitting the heavy bag. So CUTE!!!! Our little Karate Kid!!
