Stick a fork in me.................

THEY'RE DONE!!!! That's is a picture of the combine and cart coming home. I looked at my phone at 2:30 and thought, "they should be close to done." At 2:35 my phone beeped, "ALL DONE!" WHOOO HOOOO! So, the plastic meal trays are washed and put away and the steak dinner is on. We are back to as normal as we can be :) Time to catch up on needed rest. (He will not be happy when he see's his picture on here :)

I got the bedroom done. Steve and the girls agree it looks better than before. That was a pretty quick and painless project. I do still have the old comforter. I wasn't able to part ways yet. So its washed and in the closet.


Brookie started on her appetite stimulant this week. She started off the week with a bang and ate 1/4 of a sandwich. Since then we haven't eaten huge amounts but has eaten more than she did in the past. I'm hoping with harvest being done and being back into a routine that maybe she'll eat more. I feel like we LIVE in the kitchen. Once she asks to eat we sit there and cheer her on. We'll see where this leads us.


Brooke said the next news best to her Grandma Koeman today. "Grandma guess what, I'm potty trained!" OH BOY!!! Potty trained is a strong statement. She's heading in the right direction. Last week she was in the bathroom. I asked what she was doing and she said, "get out, I'm pooping!" Alrighty then! I highly doubted this was true. You see, Brooke has chronic diarrhea. I'm not sure this is a blog appropriate topic :) but it is a medical diagnosis. We don't know why, it's just another system that is messed up. So, I've had my doubts that her being potty trained was going to happen. A few months ago we bought her Pull on diapers, so she could change herself (with the exception of the poop). (another good parenting move, hehe) Anyway, she is doing really well and we heading in the right direction. We were so happy when she went we took a picture and texted it to Steve in the combine. That a surprise when he open that text. hahahaha I don't want him to miss any of the "firsts." I'll spare you the photo.


It seems crazy Thanksgiving is this week. I'm excited to see family and hang out. I don't usually do the "black friday" shopping, but you never know. If I find a good deal I'm not scared to brave the crowds.
