Potty Trained!
Ian has always been great about going to the bathroom. He gets super excited does a little dance and then tries to run away naked. Just a week before he turned two he saw mickey underwear and cars underwear at the store and wanted them. I explained what they were for and we ended up getting them. The next day he wanted to wear them and did great! We have gone accident free for a very long time -with the help of bathroom prizes like Woody, Buzz, and Rex. He is loving it! He likes to do it all by himself and the door must be closed. He usually says, "Mom get out." What is hilarious is when he toots -he opens the door and with a huge grin says with a little chuckle "mom, I tooted." Then jumps back on the toilet.He other news. He is loving anytime he is able to spend outside -which lately is rare due to all the rain. It has finally warmed up a little and so we have spent a lot of time outside. He has figured out how to pedal his tricycle.
He loves playing in the water. Our neighbors down the road went in together and got this giant water slide pool thing -it is insane. They invited us over the other day to play and we were definitely up for it. Ian was happy to miss swimming lesson as long as you mentioned that Ellie would be there. However once we got there he really just wanted to play in the water and had a blast playing with the older boys. You would have never know he was one of the youngest because he was right in the middle of it all!
While we had planned on leaving at 2:00 so that Ian could take a nap it did not work out that way. Finally we came home at 5:30 (with Ian kicking and screaming because he did not want to leave) and began making dinner. We could hardly keep Ian awake so I threw together some leftovers for Ian and then Nan (Tim's mom) feed Ian and attempted to keep him awake long enough to eat.
When I asked him about his favorite part of the day he said the water. I asked him if he wanted to go back another day and he said "No, now." Sure enough when we woke up the next morning he wanted nothing more to do then to go "down slide, swim now." Oh, the joys of summer!

Oh my gosh Ashley I am so jealous you are diaper free in your house! I only hope Grace does as well with potty training when she's two. I love the water slide too. It's amazing what a lack of a nap does to a kid.
