Speaking

Preston is speaking so much these days and it seems he is learning 10 words a day. I have some flash card I show him and he is able to tell me what is on each of them. I'm so happy to hear him speak. j

Weeks change

Every week every day Preston changes. He become more amazing with every breath. We just got back from a trip to CA and he did so much. He pooped in the closet of our hotel room and said bye bye to it and closed the closet door. Played guitar hero, feed a giraffe. He is such a special little man. I love him so much. j

Boppa

On Monday Holly and I had a doctors appointment which we could not bring Preston too. We dropped him with our trusted friend Hartman around the corner. He walked right in to their house with not even much as a goodbye. When we came to pick him up I walk into the Colemans house and Preston comes running with arms out yelling Boppa Boppa Boppa. I almost cried. He really missed me, Hartman told me he waited at the window, when a car came by he would say Boppa. Love the ML and at the Doctors visit we found out Preston is going to have a little sister. Yeah!! j

The Big Man

Preston is changing from week to week. He is talking having conversations, playing by himself and is a big help around the house. I have learned you really need to include him in what ever you do. Let him help. He is so much a pleasure to take care off and to hang out with. Last night we went to Fire water in Providence. What Fun. The fires in the canal, there were statue people( a spartan, gargoyle and a lady in waiting) giving out wisdom they were so cool, Chinese lion-dragons dancing and a garden of blue lights. We danced on a dance floor to the salsa which Bubs loved. A real big Salsa fan. We had Del's lemonade which topped off our night. Fun was had by all. A super night with the fam.

Big Day

We picked up a Toddler Bed for the Bubs. Loves it, put it in his room, jumped right into it. The last couple of day Holly and I been trying to figure if we were going to let him use it. Tonight was the first night he did. He did get up three time until he fell asleep.
The other big event was going to the potty. The last couple of weeks we have been putting Preston on the potty and tonight was the first time he went. Holly and the Bubs were getting ready for the bath, Holly put him on the potty and make the pee-pee sound to go pee in the potty and he did go in the potty. Holly calls me over Jason, Jason, Jason. I come running to the story of Preston going pee in the potty. In celebration we all did the potty dance. So proud of the boy. J

beach

So we go to the beach around four five six o'clock. Holly Preston I play on the beach sometimes go in the water and use the play ground when we get a chance. Oh yes we have ice cream too. In the last couple of weeks in the morning Preston and I go on a walk around the block. On our way Preston will fall two to three times onto his knees thus scraping them. By now his knees are pretty scraped. At the play ground after a little swim Preston is walking up to the swing set when he falls on his knee the board walk. Crying as he gets up he soldiers back into the sand. There was nothing that could have stopped him, with the once scraped up knees which are now just raw with sand, crocidile tears in his eyes and two concerded parents asking how we can help. He gets up and back to business. The boy is a tropper. j

Toddler

I think it is official, the Bubs has grown from a baby into a toddler. He climbs on to the dinning room table to do some gardening when my back is turned and he knows he doing something wrong because when I catch him gardening on the dinning table he stops and tries to get away. Even though has has started to move a lot faster he is not that fast yet.
With words, he is pick up new ones everyday and words that Holly and I have not taught him. He just surprises us and now he is at the point where he is telling us to do stuff. The other night Holly has putting him to bed, singing him a song when all of a sudden he tells her to sit. Sit Mamma sit. j
