8 year Anniversary!

On Sunday (May 15) will be 8 years since we got married. We decided to celebrate our anniversary today because Chris has to work on Saturday. The weather was just perfect to go and visit the Columbia River Gorge Falls.

Bridal Veil Falls-This one was our favorite.
We were pretty much all by ourselves!

Christian is trying to figure out how to smile. Most of the time we get these weird smiles but he sure is cute.

The mist was so powerful that it was almost like you were getting a shower.

Christian's Potty Success

Potty training has not been as easy as I thought it was going to be. Christian started going potty at the age of 18 months. He would be interested in going for about 2 weeks and then would want to stop. This has been happening off and on until now. I was starting to get really worried because he showed no signs in wanting to be potty trained. I have tried everything from games to restaurants and finally I decide to try a fish. Every time we go to Walmart, Christian wants to go look at the fish. Last Wednesday, I told Christian that if he would go potty and received enough stickers to fill up his chart, we would buy him a fish.


On Saturday, Christian got his fish (Gill). He was pretty excited but decided that he wanted a whale instead of a fish. I told him that he couldn't have a whale because they are too big. I don't know if I should say that he is finally potty trained or not but has done really well for over a week.
