Well...Abby is well on her way to being fully potty trained! Tonight we were getting ready for her bath and she said, "potty!" I rushed her to the potty and she went pee pee AND poo poo on the potty! YAY! We did not even have her potty seat...I just held her on the potty. That is only the second time that she went poo poo on the potty! Last night, she told me "potty" and I thought that she said something else...she then continued to go potty in her pull ups. She told me BEFORE though! What a BIG Girl! We had her checkup on Saturday and she is in the 35th% for her weight (22.12 lbs) and the 90th % for her height. The doctor also said that her verbal and language skills are of a 2 year old! YAY! She is ahead of the game!
I am VERY ready for summer vacation! Only 12 more school days left! YAY! I just have SOOOO much paperwork that I need to finish in those 12 days! Yikes! I do this every year...I know what paperwork needs to be done by the end of the year, but I always wait until the very last second to do it! WHY??? :)
I am excited about church...I met with the youth pastor and he asked me to be the "coordinator for the youth leaders." Basically, I will help choose the curriculum, encourage the small group leaders, make sure that they have their curriculum and basically be the behind the scenes person that makes it tick. This will be a new journey for me and I am excited to see what God is going to do!

Update
Well...A friend of mine did a family update...I thought that was a great idea...so, here ya go...Thanks Jenn for the idea!
Robby: He is a man of many hats! He works full time for an oil company, he is in seminary full time and is working at our church part time! WOW! Did I mention that he is a GREAT daddy and husband in the mean time??? He also just made all A's on his final exams for seminary... WOW! I am so proud of him! How does he do it?
Abby: She is CRAZY! She is running everywhere, up and down stair, sliding, climbing...CRAZY! We are still working on the potty thing, but there is not much consistency between what we do at home and what is done at the sitter, so I think that we will just hit it hard this summer. She will pretty much tell you what she is thinking, so watch out! This morning she said "git my milk (bilk)" please(in sign)! Her new few words are "hold you," "rock," "Kilie" (a girl at Joann's house. She will make all of the animal sounds such as "meow," "mooo," "ruff ruff," "baa," "quack, quack," "oink." As well as "vrrrmm" when she sees a car or bus, "burr" when she is cold, "hot", "waTer(emphasis on the T) haha" "up" "down" "eat" "yummy" She is a talker! She can stack 4 blocks and make a tower, and match the circle, square and triangle in the shape sorter. Her favorite toys are her tent that Granna and Poppa bought her for Christmas and her big Ball for the moment...it seems to change daily though. :)
Me: I am READY for summer vacation! I will be teaching babies doing Parent Infant Training this summer for two days a week. I am working with our youth group at church as the "leadership coordinator." Basically, I get to encourage the parent volunteer leaders for our small groups, prepare their curriculum and make sure that they have everything that they need. We will really start hitting it hard this summer, so I will let you know how that goes. Right now, I am in a women's bible study on Thursday nights. Other than that...I TRY to work out, but not as much as I was there for a while..STILL have those 7 lbs left to lose...YUCK! It is hanging on for dear life!!!! That is about it for us! I hope that you are all doing well!
Love you all!

Diaper
OK...so this will be short, but funny! Robby was watching Abby tonight so that I could go to Bible study. After the study, I called and he said that Abby came up to him holding a diaper and he said "oh...do we need to change your diaper?" her response, "Dora (the character on her diapers) wet" he grabbed the diaper that she was holding and realized that IT was wet??? He lifted up her dress and SHE had taken off her diaper HERSELF! Hahaha What a BIG girl!
