Doggie Paddler!!!

I figured it out!!!! It took about a week of going to the pool almost every day but I figured it out!!! I can now doggie paddle. I have a life jacket that helps a little but I still have to work hard to keep my face from going under. Once I figured out how to keep myself upright and keep my face out of the water it was only a matter of time. Now I swim all over the place. I swam about 6 feet today from Daddy to Mommy all by myself. I am a little fish. Mommy says she thinks I'll catch on to swimming without my life jacket pretty easily because the life jacket doesn't really work like it is suppose to and I'm already having to work to keep myself afloat. I love the pool. I am not afraid AT ALL. I promise I'll post some pics soon of all our summer fun!

Pee Pee In the Potty!

The other day I did something really funny! I had to tease my mom and dad a little bit! I walked into the bathroom right before my Mommy was about to give me my bath, pointed to my new potty, and said "pee pee". Mommy said "yes baby, that is where you pee pee". She obviously didn't get it so I said it again. Finally she got it and said "Oh, you want to pee pee in the potty?" and I nodded! So she helped me get situated on the potty and I let out a ferocious straining noise. Mommy looked a little shocked but I was just doing what I've seen done before!! Anyway, once I finished I got up and pointed down to the teensy weensy amount of pee pee that I had managed to provide and said "pee pee!". Regardless of the volume, I had still done it! Mommy was floored and started screaming for Daddy to get M&Ms!! Daddy showed up with 2 green M&Ms. I was very pleased with myself and the M&Ms! Mommy kept singing some ridiculous potty song and clapping and saying pee pee + potty = M&Ms. I just let them enjoy the moment and continued on to my bath. Their excitement was quite amusing considering I do not plan on doing that again for a very long time!
Although the M&Ms were kind of tempting..........
