You have been LOVING riding your bike! After your first initial success at riding the "big boy" bike, you decided that you didn't like it and went back to riding the trike and actually, you don't even ride the trike, you push it all over! But, finally, just the other day, we fixed your training wheels so the bike didn't tip as much, and now you can't get enough of riding it! You are really good at it too! Once in a while you still get stuck and need a little push to get you going again. You also love wearing your new safety pads. They are Lightning McQueen and you look so cute in the knee pads, elbow pads and hand guards! You even tell me that you look cute!

Today, you and Triston played in the empty ditch across the street. You loved playing in the dirt and you kept finding "treasures!"

You finally had some success with potty training! For months, I have been telling you that if you poop on the potty, I would get you Spider-Man pj's. But, you have been refusing and have no interest. We pretty much gave up on potty-training, but we still had the PJ deal! The first weekend of April, General Conference Weekend, we went to West Yellowstone and hung out with the Thueson's, Andrews' and Tanner's. As you were eating dinner, you said you needed to go poop. So, grudgingly, I took you to the bathroom, thinking you were only saying that for fun, but you went poop in the potty! It was so great and the first thing you wanted to do was tell Heather Tanner, (who has still been babysitting on Mon, Wed & Fri, who you call your teacher). It was very exciting, but unfortunately, you haven't repeated it!

You have been so good at sleeping in your big boy bed! It actually took you a month of sleeping in it before you would get out of it yourself. You would still call out for me to come and get you! You have fallen out of it a couple of times during the night, but you still love it!

You have overcome your fear of swings! Last summer you did NOT like swinging and when you did, you did not like to go very high. But, this year, you are enjoying it and want to go high and fast!
