Cactus, Pee and Motorcycle Racing!













Our poor old Agave plant just couldn't take the monsoons anymore. It had just bloomed and was about 40 feet tall, way above the top of our house. The poor thing got caught in the monsoon last Wednesday and toppled over. It's roots came straight out of the ground. I feel bad knowing that thing was old and there way before our house was built. Matt has since chopped it up and we have to slowly put some in the trash can each week until it is gone.

In other news- Hayden, for the first time a few days ago, woke us up in the middle of the night and asked to go potty! We may be done with night time pull-ups sooner than we thought. I can't believe he has only been potty trained for a few months and is already recognizing in the middle of sleeping that it is time to go. He hasn't peed the bed for nap in a long time, but I just can't believe we are moving on to going at night as well. I'm so proud of him. Unfortunately this means Mommy will have to get up as well until the poor little guy is tall enough to get up there himself. :)

Also, Hayden is really enjoying his Valentino Rossi Racing Suit and is already talking about wearing it for Halloween! Here are some pics of that and also of him wearing my helmet from my car racing years.
