Lately we have been potty training. Not cool. I'm officially not a fan. Luce was really gun-ho and doing great for the first few days and now its all we can do to get her to sit on the potty. I feel like if I bug her and bug her she will just hate it more and more. So im not sure what to do. Hmmm. But it would be awesome if she were completely trained by lets say
Also we went to the specialist to talk about her eating. The early intervention people convinced me that there is probably something go on with her stomach as to why she only eats 5 foods. So we got up super early, headed to primary childrens (after 3 months of waiting for the appt date) and went into a horribly depressing hospital that totally freaked me out (im a little irrational around sick people) and met with a dr who basically was wondering why I was there. He said "she is stubborn", there is absolutely nothing wrong with her. And he gave me a couple of ideas (that we have tried a millions times before) of how to get her to eat and shoved me out the door. Ok he didnt shove me out the door, he was very nice, but thats how i felt. Dont get me wrong i am GRATEFUL there is nothing wrong with my babe but I just wanted answers, well a different answer. Boo. I was so ticked. I almost started to cry right there in the office (and i am not a crier). I have been fighting this battle since birth and i got my hopes up that we would find something that could easily be fixed and we were off to an eating wonderland, but no, my dreams were squashed in an instant. So now our new plan of action is (we have already tried this time and time again mind you) that Lucy will eat what we are eating for dinner and if she doesnt eat it she goes to bed hungry. its been hard cause when we go to friends house and there is dessert, she cant eat any until she eats some of her dinner and there is lots of crying and whining, and i feel really bad, but i guess the wild stallion will take time to break. We are on a week of this, still no luck. She has an iron will that Hilter would be jealous of.
In other news, my body hates me. totally random, but it does.
In other, other news Ty got a job offer completely out of the blue, like they sought him out and wants him to work for them right now. PRETTY CRAZY stuff. We don't have any details yet but as soon as everything gets worked out I will definitely be blogging this miraculous miracle for the world wide web to see!
Oh ya! and in other, other, other news. I am dangerously close to begin ready to start up a cake business!!! This is something I have been thinking a lot about and I really REALLY love to do it. Plus i can do it from home. I am just struggling with a name... There are so many good names out there how could i possibly choose just one?! But here is my latest design. This is a birthday cake for my bro-in-law Andrew and to say he is a serious BYU fan would be an understatement, so it was only fitting that i do a byu cake just for him.

I am so sorry you are still struggling with the picky eating. Ellie is also in that crowd, she eats a little more than 5 things, but if it isn't a bread product or in a smoothie you can forget about it. It's so frustrating! I hope something successful happens soon with Lucy!
Yay on the job offer! That sounds really exciting :).
Sorry your body hates you, that does not sound fun.
Lastly, fabulous cake! That looks amazing! Sounds like a fun adventure to start!
I am so excited for your cake adventure! I always see fun cakes on pinterest and think...someday. Then I try to make something simple like cupcakes and remember that the kitchen is not my domain!
I am so sorry about little Lucy. Only 5 things! You are such a trooper. It sounds like you have gone the rounds and are still going strong though. I would have given up.
And lastly... Horray for Ty and the job offer. You two are one of the most amazing couples I know and I love to hear about it when good things come your way! Take care! Miss you!
Jody you are an amazing mother! I just want you to know that! Sometimes I'm sure you don't feel that way but you really are! I'm so sorry about Lucy being a picky eater and not potty training the way you'd like her too! You are doing all the right things for sure so keep up the good work; she's just showing her personality :) Kids can only control what comes in or what comes out so she's trying to control things but hang in there, she'll eventually get the hang of things. She'll potty train when she's ready and I love how you're not forcing things *just makes things worse anyway* As for the eating, it's totally ok to let her go to bed hungry-kids don't like being hungry so she'll eventually give in :) She's just testing the waters right now and your limits and I can't even imagine what stresses you face but I want you to know you're amazing and doing such a fabulous job!
Great job on that cake! That's so neat you're having your own cake business! You will do amazing and I love how you're able to do this at home! It truly is a blessing being able to be at home with your daughter! Not everyone can do that but what a privilege you are able to!
