Wheeler Farm and a Big Goodbye

Yesterday we went to Wheeler Farm for our outing. Much like the petting zoo at Gardner Village, but free. Weston's favorite part is that there are tractors and bulldozers that he can sit in. Screw seeing the animals. He could care less. He also wanted to go play in the shed barn thing, but it was full of pigs, so he was kind of sad. He also totally freaked when a cow mooed really loudly right close by. Direct quote, "Hey that tractor is really huge." He spent the entire time running around and chasing pigeons (when he wasn't driving the tractors). We tried feeding the ducks, but there were too many geese making threatening noises at us, so I pulled a speedy evacuation maneuver. It was pretty fun and gorgeous weather.

Angel baby being so sweet in his stroller. He did get to come out and play for a little while.
On the potty training front, I am pretty disappointed that I am admitting defeat in Round 1 of the battle. Rather than having fewer accidents during week 2, Weston had about 50% more. Once I stopped hounding him about it, he didn't seem to want to make it happen, so as of this morning we are back in pull-ups/diapers (I still haven't officially decided which I want to keep him in). We will probably try again in November and see how he does. Anyway, it's kind of frustrating to know that all that effort and craziness was in vain. Big sigh.

Tomorrow morning we are leaving for our trip to Portland, OR for a whole week+, so I will not be back to post pics and whatnot until the 14th. I will miss checking up on y'all, but I'll catch up when I get back. It should be a fun time with sun forecast for the whole week so far. I'm hoping I will actually get to relax a bit and maybe even sleep in one or two days. Wahoo for family vacations. :)
