Well we tried to begin potty training with Carter today since he has shown an interest in the toilet and says things like "poo poo." This morning I bought him a potty (which is actually a $25 piece of junk that I want to exchange for a better one. ), and the first thing he did was this...
Yep grabbed some reading material to help get the job done! He is too funny! During naptime I continued to work on my t-shirt quilt. When I left off I had all of the squares cut out.
Second 1/2 steps:
1. Starch quilt squares
2. Then I pinned all the 4 squares that go in one column together.
3. Then I stitched each column together
4. Then I pressed open the seams with an iron.
5. Then I pinned each column together. I wanted to make sure that the squares that were going to be in the same row matched seams. I then pinned each column together starting with each seam and then the material in between them.
This is where I stopped for 2 reasons: 1st-Carter woke up 2nd- As I finished the last seam of the column connection my sewing machine need broke on a pin! It was my last one, so I am awaiting my trip to Hobby Lobby tomorrow for new needles, batting, and fabric for the border and back of quilt.
Then we had a doctor appointment for Gwen, and had the pleasure of waiting for almost 1 hour. The boys were a pain to deal with in the waiting room...after about 45 mins of trying to corral their behavior....I just let them do whatever in hopes they would want to rid the office of us!
Then Logan had a birthday party for his friend from school at Peter Piper Pizza. After the long wait at the doctor, we just stopped to use restroom and grab the gift, then headed to Peter Piper. The kids weren't bad, but it was just a lot to chase 3 different ages and keep up with it. They did have a blast though!
