Family Photos

For those who are interested, we had a photo session with Chang2Studios and here are the pictures:  http://www.chang2studios.com/client-photos/2013-05-30-Revoredo-Family-Session
This was long overdue as we hadn't had one since Joe was 18 months!  I admit, I was being a little vain.... I really wanted my braces to be off before we did this session!  Thanks Rich and Leeann for the great photos!

All in a weekend's work...

I decided to bite the bullet and attempt potty training this weekend.  Joe's final day of school was last Thursday, and I thought what better way to start the summer than 3 days of potty training.  :)  I was thinking do the hard work now, and then refine the skill all summer, right?

I knew it wasn't going to be easy.  I mean, potty training a stubborn boy (who also has a language delay)?     Whew.  

Friday was terrible, Saturday was a little bit better, and today, well, Joe was requesting to use the potty by the end of the night!  Yahoo!  He's not fully trained, but like I said, we have the rest of the summer to work on that.   

So, dozens of laundry loads later, through tears, triumphs, and sunken cheerios, I am ready to call it a weekend. :)

Lydia turns 5!

We can't believe our "little Lydia" is five!  She is such a blessing to us.  She adds so many laughs and so much joy to our home.  She is our little jokester/comedian.

This was the first year we decided to a do a "friend" party for Lydia.  I may have overdone it a little with 20 somes kids at our house, but it was a great time!  And we couldn't have asked for a better weather day, it was perfect, thank you Lord!  The theme was flowers, as Lydia LOVES flowers.

Our friend Leeann at Chang2Studios took photos, which was the best gift!  Thanks Leeann!  Here are some pictures from the day!

 Anticipating the arrival of her friends!


Recieving her favorite flower from Superhero, Caleb :)

Trying out the party game (toss the squishy animal in the sand pail)

Dirt Cake time!

Reading her cards(she actually re-read her cards many times in the couple of weeks after her party)

"Thanks for coming!"

Lydia, we love you and thank God for you!  So glad you enjoyed your party!
