Ben pooped on the toilet two times last week. Jared is getting really close to being able to crawl. He can get up on his hands and knees, but he doesn’t go anywhere yet. He is also getting really good at sitting up by himself.
The boys and I went swimming yesterday with their Grandma, and Grandpa Linford. We went to a place called Warm Springs. It’s about a half hours drive north of town. Ben had loads of fun swimming. He really liked the slides. At first he insisted on being held even if he was in water that was shallow enough for him to reach the bottom, but after my Mom dunked Jared a few times, (she even dunked him and let go, so that he had to get himself back up to the surface) Ben got a little more brave. I started pushing him a foot or two away from me, and letting him swim back (he was wearing a floatie). After a while he was having so much fun swimming that he wouldn’t let me hold him anymore. He spent about a half hour swimming around the pool without any help.
Then on the drive home he had to pee, but we were in the middle of nowhere, so I had to make him pee on the ground. At first he refused, but when I started to put him back in his car seat he relented. The lesson learned here Ben is that if you’re a boy, the world is your potty.
