So much going on!!

Tattum is doing great. His brothers love him to death! Porter likes to cover him up in blankets and give him kisses. Yesterday Keaton was holding him when Tattum decided to start crying, so Keaton lifted up his shirt... lol.... Daddy had to explain that only mommy can do that. Tattum weighs 6lbs. now but is doing great, boy can this kido eat!!
In other upcoming events Ben will be leaving for his new job the first of the month. As for the rest of us Tattum and I will fly out to pick out a house on the 6th Our movers have been scheduled for the 13th so yes we will be leaving very soon. The nice thing is we don't have to pack yeayy!!!

Update on Keaton Potty training


So we bought a lightning McQueen race car book that makes sounds, it came with a lightning pillow to match we told Keaton he could have it if he went potty 100% of the time in the big boy potty. He sat on the toilet for an hour!! Bless his heart I made him get off the toilet to go to bed. He was not happy with me and announced so by telling me "I don't like mommy." As much as it broke my heart I figured I must be doing something right. So I listened to him cry himself to sleep that night. The following am at 8:00 I heard "mommy, I peed in the toilet, look,... I get race car now." So I jumped out of bed and looked in his toilet that I had placed in his bedroom and sure enough it was full!!!!! So we gave him lightning. A few hours later he went in his underwear I made him put his underwear in the trash and I took back lightning. I am really not liked now. He even went to tell daddy how mean I was and just how much he doesn't like me. I told him he could have lightning back if he went potty in the big boy potty. He has yet to have another accident and even woke up dry. He carries lightning with him everywhere!!!! He even gives lightning pillow a bath. I am now liked again by Keaton at least until the next accident. He even went poopy in the potty last night and earned a cookie.. so for now the drama continues and mommy is getting hugs and kisses from Keaton again we will see how long it lasts! :) Hey still no accidents!!! I think we got it! :) The biggest issue is getting him to tuck "it" in.lol He keeps getting his pants wet. lol 10/7
