Potty training and potty attitude!

Will Regan ever be 100% potty trained? I'm beginning to think he will be 21 before we stop having accidents. I really thought he would be over this by the time school started back. Some days he will stay dry all day and then other days we use 5 pair of undies. I'm so frustrated with him about it. He knows what to do and he knows when he needs to go but he just doesn't want to go.

Attitude is another thing. For all those people who say "People with down syndrome are always so sweet and loving" They need to spend a day with Regan. These last few days I have felt like a complete failure with him. I have went to bed two nights just crying about his attitude. Monday he repeatedly hit his mawmaw, pulled her hair, screamed at her and was just horrible. He would not mind and that isn't going to work for us. I was so embarrassed that he was being so mean. Ricky and I have decided that we are going to be really tight on him the next two weeks. Hopefully we can get some of this under control before school starts. Right now if he went to school we would be having a behavior eval for sure. He is absolutely out of control. It's our fault for letting him get by with attitude but that has ended. Today has been a little better but not much. Lets hope things change or I'm sure that we will be having lots of frowny faces this year.

Wedding bells!!!

Our good friends Donnell and Lindsay got married over the weekend! Ricky and Donnell have been friends FOREVER!! It was super sweet to see these two tie the knot. Their reception had a DJ and we had a blast dancing or in our case "trying to dance" :) We got home around 1am and that is the latest us two old people have been out in years!!! Congrats to The Kirby's!

What the Heath's have been doing




















We have been spending lots of time being a family of 4 lately. It won't be long before Regan starts school and then we will be a family of 5 in no time! We took a quick trip to Gatlinburg this past weekend and had fun just hanging out together! We let the boys play in the stream and they both loved it. I got my feet in and boy was it cold!! I have no idea how Regan was going all the way in but he did.
On the third we went to the Baron's baseball game and watched the fireworks. We had missed the Down Syndrome Awareness night so we wanted Regan to get to watch a game and then watch some more fireworks. Kollyn did amazing watching the game and fireworks it was just a great time for all of us!
Pregnancy is going good. I had to take the three hour glucose test but passed it with no problems. I am measuring REALLY far ahead! Like I'm 29 weeks and I'm measuring 38!! I go in two weeks for another ultrasound to check and see if she is big or just my belly! I about fell out when we found out how big I was measuring.
Can't remember if I have told the world but Kollyn is walking! He started about two weeks ago. He still crawls lots but will take 8-10 steps when he wants to. I can't believe he has grown up so fast!!
It's been a great Summer and I don't want it to end!!!
