Potty Trained!

Tyler is almost all the way potty trained! He has really done so great the past few weeks. We have been working with him for quite awhile but it's just lately it seems that he has really taken to it himself. He hasn't had any accidents for almost 2 weeks. So I think he's got it!! YAY Tyler!!! He just turned 2 in August so we are very happy and grateful it worked so early for him! He still wears a diaper during naps and night but he usually isn't wet after nap. I guess nighttime takes awhile.

Tom is still in Japan. He comes home on Saturday morning. We just can't wait for him to come home. Tyler misses him so much (so do I). When Tyler gets tired he wants daddy! He always asks me to call him on the phone but this trip we can't just call him whenever we want. Tom has been able to call us everyday but with the time difference it's harder to work it out.

Tyler and I didn't do much this weekend. Just hung out together. We cleaned up in the backyard and Tyler played with bubbles!

Well, hope everyone is staying warm back in the states!! I miss it so much!!

Love, The Brouses

Happy Halloween! ARG!

We hope you all had a nice Halloween. Tyler had tons of fun and was a cute little pirate! He walked around our neighborhood and got candy for about an hour and a half. His little friends, Isaiah and Gwen, went with and they were also pirates! They all were too cute together! After taking Tyler around, we went home and handed out candy for a little bit.

Saturday we went to the Hickam Carnival in the afternoon. Tyler got to ride on all kinds of rides and played a few games. We went with our friends and neighbors (Brian and Christie) and their son Isaiah. Isaiah and Tyler are such good friends! We then went out for supper together and the boys got to play flashlights outside when we got home. They like to look for bugs together in the yard at night.

Today, Tom went to the club on base to watch the Vikings while Tyler and I slept in a hung out at home. Then we went to the beach with our friends Brian and Christie. It was a nice day!

Tom leaves for Japan on Tuesday so I took off work tomorrow to have an extra day at home with him before he leaves. He just got home from Georgia after being there for 2 weeks so it will be nice to have one more day together. We have Election Day off from school so it will be a 4 day weekend for me! YEAH!!

So...we wish you all a great week!
