What have we been up to?

Not much.
DD and I have been enjoying our routine and life in general. We attended his classmate's birthday party last weekend in 100+ degree heat. Never mind the heat, DD had so much fun playing in the jumping house, eating cake and candy. Mommy forgot to bring the camera, so hopefully, DD will remember all that fun without any picture. :) That same day, Auntie M came over to swim with DD. DD was so scared of the water that he kept screaming for mommy, not realizing that mommy can't swim! It was so much worse than two summers ago when Daddy first showed him how to swim. It's time to sign him up for a swim lesson this summer, or he might never like water.



Of course we parents live for the milestones and celebrate them no matter how big or small.
1. DD started dressing himself three weeks ago and seemed to enjoy this new found independence.

2. We are making some progress in the potty training arena. I know I am dragging this on for way too long, but I don't want to traumatize him either. It's very hard to strike a balance, but I think he is starting to like his big-boy pants and is at least not afraid of using the potty.
