Wow. What a whirlwind of a month!
Daddy and I have decided that it’s time to move you into a big boy bed. We haven’t bought one yet, because we are natural procrastinators. In fact, if it weren’t for your Baby Bro’s impending arrival, we’d probably keep putting it off. Because you like your bed. And because Daddy and I are spoiled by the fact that you’re still contained - and have never once complained or tried to get out.
We’ve had lots of outings this month - mostly geared around you. One of your favorites was going to Monkey Joe’s - a place where there are tons of bounce houses. You could spend all day running back and forth between them all. You had a blast. It’s so nice to know that there are places like this around during the winter, because you definitely need a place to burn off all of the energy you have. We spent all day at the house yesterday, and you spent an hour in the evening literally running around in circles (and that’s after spending over an hour in the basement playing!)
Speaking of the Basement - we’ve been spending lots of time down there this month. Most of the time we’re down there, you’re riding your tricycle. You’ve seriously mastered that thing. You go so fast, it kinda freaks me out. But watching you ride it still makes me smile, and it won’t be long until we’re able to take it outside and ride it to the park (I hope).
Over the past few weeks, Indianapolis has been celebrating all things Super Bowl. This is the first time in my life I’ve ever been This close to something so spectacular. We decided to head downtown to see what all of the hub-bub was about. Of course, we picked the coldest day of the week to take you down, but we were still able to get a photo of our little family in front of the XLVI down on Monument Circle. Maybe Indy will have the opportunity to host another one a few years down the line. I bet you’ll have a blast doing all of the activities then...
You’ve had to accompany me to my past few doctor’s appointments. I think it actually helps you understand that this is real, we’re going to have a baby soon. You’ve done so well while we’re there, you’re growing up so much. You have asked me a few times why your little brother isn’t here yet. I just respond with “he’s still growing in my belly, getting stronger.” That usually works, and you’re off to play again.
Today, I decided that it’s time to start introducing the potty to you. We’re going to take it slow, because I don’t want to rush it too much, but I am ready. So far, we’re just sitting on it. Practicing. Hopefully you’ll take to it soon, and you’ll be more open to trying to go potty. But, for now, sitting on it is a start.
So many changes happening this month, and so far, you are handling them all just fine. I’m so proud of you, little man.
Love you,
Mommy
