Big Boy Now

We have been hard at work here in Virginia. Jack has been potty training and transferring over to a toddler bed. I had extra time on Tuesday and thought, "what should we do today" and I decided on potty training. So far it has gone very well. Only one accident. We give Jack a jellybean every time he goes pee in the potty and a chocolate every time he goes poo in the potty. He is a smart little stinker, so he only goes a tiny bit at a time, and then accepts his award. Then 15 minutes later we get another few drops of pee and another jellybean reward. He's definitely a smart little guy. 

Jack has felt pretty cool sleeping in his big boy bed and he has already slept there 3 nights. For some reason, much to our delight, he thinks he can't climb out of the bed, so once we put him there he stays. Even when he wakes up he calls to us to come and get him. Unfortunately, he fell out of the bed last night at about 5 in the morning. We keep a foam cushion on the ground for this purpose, and the bed isn't very high up, but he was still pretty sad. Luckily, he went right back to sleep after telling me about his big ouch. 

My parents bought Jack this awesome book of cars for his birthday. We finally got around to doing the sticker activity. He gets to pick, in order, his favorite 50 cars. He did it all by himself, and then we hung it on the wall in the hallway at his level so he can practice all the car names. 

For anyone that wants to know, his top 5 were Koenigsegg CCX, Jeep Wrangler, Chevrolet Camaro, Dodge Ram SRT-10 and Chevrolet Corvette.
