Pee pee in the potty!!

Yup! I went pee pee in the potty tonight (well, I don't think any of it actually went IN the potty, but I was sitting on it and everything). Mommy danced around singing a potty song. Then I got to have chocolate! I REALLY wanted that chocolate. Here's how it went down:
I was getting ready to take a bath and mommy took my diaper off. We have my potty sitting next to the big potty. I kept saying "Pa-tee" which is typical but usually I then want mommy to sit on the potty, not me. However, yesterday Daddy got chocolate when he went pee pee in the potty. I thought I was missing out on something delicious (which I was!) so I was insistent on sitting tonight. I kept getting off and asking for chocolate but mommy said I had to actually go pee pee in order to get it. I got distracted for a minute and ran down the hall. At the end of the hall though I realized that nature was calling. I yelled "PA TEE" "PA TEE" and RAN back to my potty. I just barely made it. Mmm Mmm. Chocolate sure was good.

Baby Update: to know, or not to know...

That's the question mommy and daddy can't decide on these days. The BIG ultrasound is on Monday and they can't decide if they want to find out if I'm going to have a little brother or a little sister or wait until November to see. Hmmm.


Mommy has been feeling so much better these days. It's nice to see a real smile on her face. We've been going for lots of walks and she even took me to the "poo" (pool) yesterday to play. She and daddy have been feeling the baby move from the outside of her tummy for awhile now. I don't have the patience yet to sit still long enough to wait for a kick.


My friend Sam just got a little sister. It doesn't seem so bad...she sleeps a lot and eats a lot and Sam got a lot of NEW TOYS!! This big brother thing is going to be great. But...I asked mommy if I could put it back if I changed my mind. Unfortunately, she said no :(

Warm Weather

For Father's day we went to Benham Falls for a hike. The best part was when I got to get out of the backpack and play by the river (this scared Nana and Mommy).

The weather has finally hit summer time here. It's been 80+ for the past 2 weeks. If you can't tell by my smile I LOVE to be outside.

Some new words: "Money", "Dee" (deer), "Ahss" (Ice), "Pahsee" (Popsicle)

The 100th post

Yup, it's true. It's been 100 posts. I thought that was cause for a celebration (that and Daddy finally showed mommy how to change the setting on the camera so she can take pictures). Here's a quick look at the past year and a half.

Now for some current info as I begin the 2nd half of the year:

1. I thought I'd enter the terrible 2's early and practice the word "No". "Uh oh" has quickly been replaced with No!

2. My vocabulary has expanded 2fold...Mommy's favorite is "dit" for dirt. I have a hard time pronouncing my r's. I have also mastered On-dee (my Uncle Anders) and Dew (my Uncle Drew)

3. Mommy says I am an echo--I try to copy almost every word I hear.

4. After months of no new teeth I thought it would be fun to get them all at once. I have since decided that wasn't such a fun idea, but they are persistent little things. I have 3 new teeth and 2 more on the way.
