Before I forget..

..add "Peeing on the potty" to Jake's new favorite pass times. He had been rejecting our efforts to get him trained and if you asked him if he was going to be a big boy and pee on the potty he would answer "NO". This week things changed..he started to pee on the potty a couple of times a day at school and this weekend it's ALL he wants to do. If anyone mentions the word "potty, have to pee or bathroom" jake wants to join. We have kept a diaper on him in public b/c we know there wil still be accidents..but today at the mall he did tell me he had to pee and also after the beach yesterday. Let's hope this sticks and its not just a phase! I'd love to stop buying diapers at the rate we are at. The m&m's, lollipops and stickers sure do help!

Gooo Jake Go!

Hair today..gone tomorrow.

We had a conversation tonight about similarities in looks.. I say Jake is starting to really look more like me, Alex seems to think he looks more like him and less like me.


Jake piped in with "Daddy doesn't have hair. Mommy has hair and I have hair....Daddy, why dont you have hair?" Observant.
