What a week!

This has been such a great week at our house! To start the week off, we found out Monday morning that Kyson no longer had to be on his crazy diet!!! A lot of people have said that I am probably more excited about that than Kyson...maybe it's true! You try feeding a three year old only 10 grams of fat a day! Not easy to do and Kyson is a great eater! I will say he got really excited to have Mac N Cheese again:)

Another great thing happened Monday...KYSON KEPT HIS UNDERWEAR DRY ALL DAY FOR THE FIRST TIME!!! I think I may be just as excited about that as his diet. He hasn't had one accident since Monday so I think it's safe to say he's officially potty trained! It has been tough getting Kyson potty trained and I'm grateful it's overwith. I had tried so many different things with him and you know what finally worked? Giving him a cold shower when he had an accident. Now I know most people with think that's harsh, but Kyson would just sit on the couch and pee and not even bat an eye. He would just sit in it and didn't care that he'd made a mess. Once I gave him a few cold showers to clean him up he didn't like having accidents anymore! That's always the way it is with Kyson though...the things that work for Caleb rarely work for him. His brain is definitely wired differently!

Anyway...back to our fun week:) It has been a great week to be done with Kysons diet because this week both Jared and I celebrate our birthdays! Today is Jared's birthday...
HAPPY BIRTHDAY JARED!!!

and tomorrow just happens to be my birthday:) You know what that means? A lot of free birthday meals!

Monday: Red Robin (it used to be that you got a coupon in your email and you would have a week before your birthday and a week after your birthday to use it. Now it's just the month of your birthday. Bummer since Jared is June and I am July!)

Tuesday: Rubios ($7 off your meal)

Wednesday: No free meals this day. Not because there weren't any options, just decided not to eat out again! Instead we made homemade pizza and put a lot of cheese on it for Kyson:) We also made homemade icecream.

Thursday lunch(today): Firehouse Subs (free sub for both Jared and I...supposed to be the day of your birthday but they graciously let me have mine today since we are leaving town tomorrow) Have you ever been to Firehouse Subs? It was yummy! Highly recommend it!

Thursday dinner: Not sure but maybe Joe's Farm Grill.

Friday: I'm thinking about running to Krispy Kreme doughnuts in the morning to get my free donuts before we leave. We'll see if we have time!

I still have a few freebies I might get next week. I got an email for a free burger from RubyTuesday and something from Jason's Deli.

I am really looking forward to leaving this crazy hot place tomorrow. We are going up and spending time with my family. We usually go camping but the forest is closed where we usually go so we will just hang out. It'll be nice anyway and I'm sure my boys will love the freedom to play outside. I know I will enjoy it!
