My Big girl!

Well it has been quite a week for us around here.  Life has been moving pretty fast.  I finally got all my dental work done on thursday of last week.  I was at the dentist office for 7 hours!! They pulled two teeth and did a ton of work.  I am still feeling a bit sore so tomorrow I am going to dentist office to pick up something called socket. Its a topical medication for my mouth.  Hopefully it will make it all feel a little better.  I actually get to go to town by myself!!  That is something I haven't done in a llloonnngg time.  So I am excited about that! I am also going to go by the dollar store and pick up stuff to make Julia a potty chart.  She has been doing awesome!! She even pooped in the potty today.  She only had like 3 accidents today.  She is such a big girl now.  So proud of her.  So we are getting a chart to record her success.  I am so proud of how far she has come in the last few weeks.  She talks alot now and even says please and thank you.  She is doing really well.  It's like she suddenly decided to take off and just advance and grow up.  I don't even know what the switch moment was.  But today was really awesome! Almost no diaper changes and no poopey diaper changes.  Love it!! It's a whole new world for me.  It takes alot of time to potty train but it is so worth it.  Julia and I have just connected even more lately.  I spend alot of time just talking to her and she really seems to understand me.  My days go by pretty fast anymore!  Today I was able to clean one of the bathrooms and sweep and mop and do alot of other stuff.  So I feel so good about that.  I hadn't been able to mop in like 3 days.  The dust storms really set me back.  When the wind blows like that if you mop it just makes a muddy mess.  There is no point.  I won't miss that aspect of things when we move to Ephrata.  I also think I may have found a church to try out in Ephrata.  It's a four square church so I am hoping that it is close enough to a penticostal to feel like home.  I really want to start going back to church.  It feels like it has been forever since I have been.  I need to find one that is right for me where I can feel comfortable and at home.  Will be praying about that for the next few weeks.  Julia and I should be going down to stay at mom and dads for a few days on thursday night.  I am excited about that.  I think a little alone time for Shane will be good.  I think he can use it.  He was really tired tonight and went to bed even before Julia.  He is going to try to do a ton of homework tomorrow.  Then on Thursday we are going to hopefully be able to go to the Fockens and clean out the garage and take a load of stuff over.  Its crazy that we are moving in like 5 weeks.  It scares me to be totally honest.  But makes me happy too.  Another chapter and new start! lol.  Well I suppose I will just shut this down for now, Amish:Out of Order is on!
