PPCDC

Baker started at a new school this past week! He seems to really like it at PPCDC and comes home much happier and almost hyper! He eats and naps SO well. They require older 2s and early 3s to go to school in big boy underpants which I am a big fan of since I felt like Baker was just being held back with pull ups. The 2 weeks prior to him going to PPCDC, we tried really hard to only use big boy underpants and he gradually did great! We had our good and bad days which are to be expected but I think it really helped him prepare to be in them 100% this week. He is doing SO well! His first day (8/20), he only had 1 accident all day.  His 2nd day, he had an accident at nap time which got EVERYTHING (blanket, pillow, clothes, etc.) all wet which kind of interrupted my laundry schedule since I don't really do laundry during the week but those things will happen!  I am happy to report; however, that his 3rd 4th, and 5th day were all accident free! YAYYY.  They even have a urinal and I have been told that Baker goes pee pee in the urinal! I hadn't a clue he knew how to use one but they said he acted like he "knew" what to do.  Maybe that's some male instinct? Either way we are so proud of our BIG boy but he is growing up oh so fast which by the way he is officially 33 months old which means we are just 3 months shy of his 3rd birthday so I guess I better start planning!

A few cute phrases he's saying lately...

• Read to me!
• Mommy, where's my colored doan? (phone)
• Peeeeeyeww, that's stinky!
• Oh my good-ness!
• You okay?
• What's wrong?
• What's that?
• My tummy hurts
• Mommy, I Poo Poo in da POTTY
• Constantly singing bunny foofoo and ring around the rosey
• I'm hongry
• I thirsty
• I want go to beatz (beach)
• Why she taking so long?  (referring to a lady in the one person bathroom, ha! Hopefully she didn't hear!
• Um on Mommy, Um on Daddy, Um on Baker (asking for all of us to do a 3 way kiss)
• I want a snack -->this means fruit snacks

His favorite drinks are STILL milk and pink 'nade (pink lemonade).  He could care less for juices but he does enjoy water too but it must have lots of ice. I think he gets that from me!

Baker's first day!

Before
He was overdue for a haircut but we waited until after the back to school rush.  He did SO good.  They used a #4 guard on his back and sides.  I have NO clue what that means but the stylist suggested it and she said it will last us longer than just scissoring.  He sat so still and had his mind on the lollipop he was going to get afterward!



After
He looks SO handsome!
