It isn’t too often that I get to be in front of the camera, so when someone offered to take a photo of the three of us tonight I said HECK YES! Love these two wild guys. So lucky they are mine 💙The freshest cut there ever was thanks to the amazing @franklinbarbershop_ia.My precious cargo.My babies. I mean, campers. All lined up in birth order. Just missing Cam. #proudauntie #campbranstadYou know what day it is?! #campbranstad 🏕🔦🌳🎨 Every year we invite our nieces over to experience the great outdoors. Hilarity and mischief are always involved, and we wouldn’t have it any other way!Still dealing with my Fourth of July festivities hangover. Can we please go back and do it all over again?! 🎇🎇🎇 I always look forward to this annual photo of the cousins in the hammock at the lake house. Nothing like an annual photo to show you just how big your babies are getting 😭Brothers 🙄This makes my heart smile.Looking for a win today! 🇩🇪 #worldcup . . . . . . . #momlife #motherhood #boymom #mother #momblogger #momlife #mommylife #motherhoodsimplified #letthembelittle #candidmotherhood #motherhoodrising #motherhoodalive #honestmotherhood #mytinymoments #uniteinmotherhood #makingmemories #ig_motherhood #bigbrother #everettmeyer #littlebrother #fitzgeraldrichard #worldcup #deutschland-

Looks like a fun 4th! We are desperately trying to potty train right now too so I am open to anything that worked for you! My daughter went almost ALL DAY yesterday in underpants without any accidents, but then woke up this morning and just wasn’t feeling it and refused to put undies on. I work full time, so it is hard getting her into a potty training routine since she is at someone else’s house during the day. She is definitely smart and aware enough to do this, she is just very choosy on when she wants to participate!
Everett is 3.5 and was ready, just needed some hand-holding and incentives. We did a potty chart, m&ms, prizes and a lot of praise. He pretty much ran around with just a tee and undies for four days straight. He had his first day back at school today and sat on the potty but didn’t go all day 😬 Went as soon as he got home though. Still a work in progress for sure.
I think we need to jump on the potty chart wagon. She loves Mickey so some Mickey stickers might be the thing to do the trick!
I can send a personalized one to you if you’d like for your daughter. Not a big deal!
Nice pictures of your family Hope to see your family at reunion in August on Grandma’s birthday! Love your cousin Troy Haas
Yes, we will all be headed your way for the reunion. Can’t wait!
Where was the pictures taken of the cows? Are you guys wet in Iowa? We have been blessed with a lot of rain buy unfortunately hail came with it. Todd and. Your dad got all of their. Wheat hailed on but one farm. Todd is still cutting .I am putting up hay.
Yes, the cattle are on a small farm that we pass on the way to the lake house. Everett loves to stop and roll down his window to talk to them. We got storms last week, but are drying out now. Dad told me about the hail – such a bummer!
