Well, this past week was a crazy, exciting, and hectic one. In fact, it was so busy that I don't even remember everything that happened, but I will try my best. Last week, the week of the 15th, Callie and I spent most of our afternoon's at the Zoo (I decided to get a family pass since it includes the splash pad and the price was very reasonable). Callie loves to learn about all the animals and says "Monkey, Monkeys" whenever we drive up. It is so cute. I am trying to teach her all the names of the animals and the sounds that they make.
Jake and I also played softball a couple times last week. I subbed for my sister's boyfriends team of Wednesday and then played on our team on Friday. We really enjoy getting out and socializing while getting some "easy" exercise.
Probably one of the biggest happenings was on Thursday the 18th. Callie went potty in the potty for the first time! Basically, she woke up from her nap dry and I put her on her potty chair not really expecting anything. I turned on the water and let it run a little bit and got her a book to read. Pretty soon I hear "dun dun ta da". I look in the potty and she had went. She hasn't went since but I haven't really pushed it either. She'll get it when she is ready.
Another big happening of the week was that on Sunday, Jake was called as the ward clerk. We were both shocked. I am excited for Jake because he will grow spiritually, but am always nervous about the time commitment. However, I know that we will be blessed if we perserver. Oh....I have to tell you the story behind this because I think it's funny. Before we moved to Scottsbluff, Ne we lived in Chadron, Ne. The Sunday that we talked in Church, Jake said that he loves football and loves to watch it on Sunday. After his talk the High Council Man, said "if you won't give it up, the Lord will give you a calling that will make you give it up." Low and behold, he knew what he was talking about because Jake will be busy every Sunday until he is realised. Ha.
Anyway, Callie just woke up from her nap. Until next time....

Awesome!! I just bought Brent a potty. He will sit on it sometimes....but No business done yet :) That is exciting about Jakes calling. A little sad that he won't be at home as much on Sundays though. But your strong :) You can do it!
