There will also be a lunch next weekend at our favorite burger joint for those folks who couldn't make it this weekend, so the fun is not yet over. However, below are the pics of the fun we've had so far.
But, before I delve into photo fun, here's a bit of an update about my big guy and where he is in his life today.
A is finally really getting the hang of potty training. I think he'll be ready to go to preschool in the fall.
We've been watching sight word DVDs, playing with flash cards, and writing in preschool workbooks to get ready for learning to read and write. He can now write his name without help, recognize all of his letters and the majority of their sounds, and count up to 20. He's very curious and enjoys learning.
A loves the pool, and although we still haven't managed to get in any swim lessons this year, he's showing an appropriate respect for the water while also learning to enjoy it. He jumps like a frog into and out of the water, and clearly wishes he could spend more time there. He's also great about water at home - playing in our little pool in the backyard, taking a bath, or even showering alone.
We're very fortunate to have such a loving, sweet boy for a son, and although he tries our patience regularly, we wouldn't want any other child for our first born son.
Best to you and yours, Chris
