Back in February, we had an overnight success story with Henry's potty training. Once we got him interested, he took off with it and within a few days, he was out of pullups! Pee-pee'ing and pooping and all of it! We didn't even have to bribe him - he was just naturually interested and eager! What an easy job, compared to Jake who took months, and month, and months before he would poop in the potty.
Also, Jake participated in the American Heart Association's Hoops for Hearts fundraiser in honor of his Poppy. Jake was the highest raiser in the entire school, raising over $500! He did a great job for a good cause, and wore a photo of Poppy around his neck during the event :)
In March, Jake started playing his 2nd year of TBall, playing mostly 3rd base :) When he gets up to bat, the coach tells everyone "big hitter" because Jake can slam it very hard! He is one of the best players on the team~
On March 31st, the boys found the first red strawberry at the farm! The earliest we have ever found one - it was a very early season and we open at the farm about 3 weeks sooner than normal~
We had a great Easter this year and the Easter Bunny brought alot of fun goodies and toys!
Jake's Kindergarten class presented a play at school called "Are You My Mother" by P.D. Eastman and Jake was the Dog & Cow in the play :) Also, his 6 year molars are starting to come in and we expect him to start losing teeth soon! He celebrated his 6 year birthday at Chuck E. Cheese :)
Both boys had "firsts" at Buch Gardens this year. Jake rode the Loch Ness Monster roller coaster for the first time, and Henry rode his first roller coaster, the Sesame Street kiddie coaster :)
Jake weighs 69 pounds and is almost 50 inches tall and Henry is 38 pounds and wearing size 9 shoes and starting to wear 4T clothes...Jake wears a size 1 shoe!
