Toilet Training
Tyler has been doing great in his toilet training. It has been almost a week that he goes to the bathroom when he wants to go pee and poop and he is doing great about telling us when he needs to go. He is just wearing underwear and no diaper doing the day when he is at home and today he hasn't have any accident yet. At night we put his diaper on when he is in bed but he doesn't wet as much as he used to. I'm glad that he is learning to go to the bathroom now and I'm hoping he will continue to be on top of it. I told him he will be ready for school when he learns to go the bathroom and not wet himself. He said mommy I'm ready to go to school.

Giving my home a retro look on a tight budget
Guest post written by Carrie Stein
I've always loved the 50s and 60s retro look and now it's back in style thanks to Mad Men. But then again a lot of the things that have been created that are in that style are a bit out of my budget. Because of that, I thought that I would try and DIY a lot of things to mimic the more expensive stuff. My furniture has been retro for a while, but I've been upgrading to some new furniture that just looks old lately. It's about that time anyway.
I looked online to see if I could get some Tile Flooring installed because I love the black and white tile flooring. Nothing looks more retro than that. So I'm going to get that done in my kitchen.
I also found some DIY reupholstering tips and I'm going to try and reupholster some of my furniture into some new, retro looking fabric. I found a sale on some really great stuff and I think that it's going to really brighten up my living room couch.

Five years in the US
It was January 22, 2007 when I left the Philippines and it's been five years that I have been here in the US. Time just go by so fast. I'm glad within five years of being here I was able to apply for my naturalization and became a US Citizen. I am done with all my immigration papers and my next goal is to be able to get my parents to come here and live with us.

Torchwood parties for this new season
Guest post written by Paul Hughes
Back when Torchwood was on the air for the first few seasons, I really got into it because of one episode where it crossed over with Doctor Who. Then I got hooked. It was the same for my roommates too and we just started watching it religiously together. Well, not all of us still live together, but we've been getting together to watch the new episodes. It's also a reason for us to catch up with each other. It's amazing how much less you see people when you don't live together.
I was looking up some spoilers for the season a few weeks ago and while I was doing that I ran across the website clear-internet.com. I looked through it some and after that I decided to switch my internet service at my apartment over to it.
I'm pretty please with the new Torchwood season so far. I think that they're doing a good job with it, especially since they called off almost all of their original cast.

Toby
It has been close to 4 months since I gave birth. I can't believe how the days go by and how my baby Toby is growing so fast.He will be 4 months on the 8th of August and he is growing to be a chunky boy. He coos and starts making noises and he smiles and laughs a lot when I start talking to him. He looks a lot like his older brother Tyler.
