Remember us? Two lovable doggies that live in North Carolina? We love our family and normally we share lots of fun stories about them. You might be wondering where we've been and many people have been commenting on our laziness towards our blog. Sorry!
Here's our EXCUSE: Our family has been going here and there all summer. We enjoyed a long stay up at our favorite place, the farm in Virginia. We've been back for a couple weeks, but have so many stories to share, we don't even know where to start.
So we'll start with today...and then we'll backtrack and tell you of our adventures of the past two months!
Today, we have a story about our dear Colton. He's such a sweet kid. But as some of you may know, he has not had the desire to place poo poo in the potty. He's been great at going pee and pulling his shorts back up, but every time he needs to go poo, he goes and gets a pull up, goes and then sometimes even cleans himself up. Yesterday, Emma told him that there were no more pull ups. And today, he decided to go poo poo in the potty! I know some of you may not be as excited and jumping out of your seats like Jon and Emma are...but we just wanted to share with you the big news at the Joersz house today!
More to come soon about multiple trips to the farm, the beach, the boys staying with both sets of grandparents, doggy treats, chasing chickens, painting, Emma's trip to Africa, fun at the pool & bunk beds!
Here's a glimpse at the fun time we had at the farm on July 4th this year. Emma put the boys in cute red, white and blue shirts....wouldn't it have been cute if us doggies wore red and blue bandanas and we took a family picture?? Yeh. We had a blast at the farm and ended up staying for most of the month of July while Emma was in Africa. Those pictures and stories to come soon....
We assume that many of you have seen pictures of our family at Sarah & Brian's wedding at the beginning of June. But for those of you who haven't, this is the weekend that our busy summer began! It was such a fun weekend spending time with family. Congratulations Sarah & Brian- We love you!

Thanks everybody for the comments! It's nice to know that our words are read and pictures seen. We have had a good start to the week. Emma and the boys went to music class and for some reason, the boys decided to hug constantly. They would embrace for 2-3 seconds at a time and then do it again minutes later. The other moms in the class "ooh-ed and ahh-ed" over it and Emma said it was stinkin' cute. Gotta love the Joersz boys- just spreadin' the love. 
Colton loves chapstick. He woke up this morning asking for it. "FOO-stick" is how he says it. Saturday he had the song from the Veggie Tales movie, Jonah, in his head all day. "Say your prayers....da da daaa....A message from the Lord," he would sing. 
The boys have been creating some beautiful artwork this morning. Colton really gets into his drawings lately. Beckett mainly enjoys throwing markers everywhere in the midst of some scribbles. Oh- and they both think putting marker lids on their fingers is the best thing ever. Colton has 5 on each finger on one hand right now and just said, "Mommy, look, I'm the muffin man!" Hmm? 
Colton has been doing a good job at dressing himself lately. He puts his underwear and shorts on several times each day. Sometimes, like yesterday, they end up backwards. It's pretty cute.
