As you all can tell we are still having serious issues with our internet! They have been out 5 times in the last week, each person has been someone different. I think Byron has finally convinced me to pull the plug on them and say our good-byes. I am highly frustrated with them and I don't think we are being told the truth or do I think we are being treated right as customers, but I hate they thought of loosing the $200 we paid for installation. Then we will more then likely pay around the same amount for another internet provider and our monthly bill will increase. I have continued to hold out hope that the issue would be solved and we would not have to go through all of this mess. Thankfully, Byron is going to handle the discussion of us quitting Wichita Online. I am praying that we find favor with them and we are credited back for not having service and also that we will be able to get the installation cost back because they can't provide the service they said we should be receiving!
I am blogging from my parents house at the moment. My nieces are here so we are all relaxing and enjoying each others company! I can't believe how grown-up my nieces have become. Kiley, I believe, has now passed me in the height department. By no means am I tall, but she is 12 so that means something. They are both such beautiful young ladies!!!
Byron hasn't had to work as much at the electrical job site, lately. He has finished the new part of the house, and is now more dependent on the owner of the house for help. Which, it has made it nice to have him around a little more and for him its not quite as stressful.
I have been busy around the house. We had a storage building on the back part of our property. Byron and my dad moved it by the carport. I painted the storage building to match the house and all I lack is painting the door red. I also got Jackson's room painted. After 2 1/2 years of life he finally has a little boy's room! He LOVES it! Its done in none other, but NASCAR stuff!!! What can I say the boy loves his cars!!! He thinks his room is so very cool! Hopefully, I can get some pics posted of it before I leave mom's house today!
Both kids are doing great! Jaycee is growing up way too fast on me. She is now getting the hang of dressing herself. Which is probably been well overdue, but I didn't mind dressing her and she wasn't interested in doing it. She also ran last night with my nieces. Kiley is running cross-country this year. So she has already started running to prepare for it. Last night, they ran from my parents house, down to the pipe racks at my grandparents. If you go down and back twice its a mile. Jaycee ran down and made it almost half way back. So we might have a runner on our hands! (Hopefully, she will wise up and choose a more fun sport!) LOL!!! Jackson is about to embark on the adventure of potty training. Next Monday is the goal to begin!!! Please, keep us in your prayers! I am a little nervous b/c he is a boy and I have NEVER been around a little boy when they are being potty trained. Jaycee was so easy, too! The Lord has been giving me peace about it and I know that it will be okay. We are going to try it and if its not clicking then we will stop and try again in a month or so. I am not going to be stressed and I am not going to make it stressful for Jackson. Hopefully, it happens and we will be DIAPER FREE in the Lohrer household! I will no longer have any trace of babies in my house! My heart is sadden by that, but we are moving on to better things and enjoying new adventures!
By the end of the month, we will start pre-school at home for Jaycee. They do offer a 4 yr old program at the local school, but its everyday from 8-3. I was not ready to send my precious little girl away all day long. Once school starts we will be in it for many many years!!! I am really looking forward to working with Jaycee more and teaching her things as well Jackson, too. Any advice or activities from you moms out there that would be fun to do please pass them along!!!
Hopefully, by September we will have internet that is dependable and I can re-join the world of blogging!!! Until then this will have to do!!! Blessings to you all!!!

Hey Dana! I was excited to see a post... sounds like life is pretty good for the Lohrer's. It's great to see pics of the kids too, they keep growing and changing so much. Wayne was almost three when we started potty training, and after a month of being the one to prompt him all the time, he finally made headway when he started telling me "I do myself. You stay here." Sure, he missed his "target" a few times, but having him driving the wagon was way worth cleaning the bathroom more often!! Good luck!
