Story Telling

Your vocabulary is growing like crazy and sometimes you get into what I call "story-telling mode" where you tell a story about something so that you can use as many words as possible. They don't always make sense, but they are SO cute. You'll string phrases together like "Oni come downtair and eh eh den I went bang and eh eh go outtide eh eh watch dye-do twain." The eh eh's are where you are inserting words that you don't know yet. That's very cute too.

Tonight you were in a story-telling mood while you and I were reading books before bedtime. We were in your room and you were reading the truck book very enthusiastically, picking out all the trucks and relating many of them to Bob, the builder.

One of your stories was to tell me about the bulldozer on your wall. You said, "Daddy paint my bulldozer and a made me happy!" You are so adorable!

I texted this to Daddy as he's at a soccer game. You are going to make his night!

Potty Training

Today was definitely a momentous occasion! You peed in the potty for the first time! Yep, you're going to LOVE this post when you're older! On the advice of Ms. Tracy, your "schoolhouse" teacher, I started having you sit on the potty as part of your bath time routine. Up until that point, I had simply asked if you wanted to sit on the potty before bath - to which you would say no and then pee in the tub the second I would place you in it. It's a game, you think it's hysterical! Tonight was only the second time...and you did it! You peed in the potty! Way to go, Kyle! :) We called Daddy upstairs to show him and you beamed with pride!
