The Star Wars lessons (shall I call it indoctrination?) have started early. Lately James likes watching the animated Star Wars series on TV with his dad. He also has a coloring book with all the Star Wars characters. He doesn't really color in it so much as point to all the characters and ask his dad to identify them by saying "That?"
In other news the potty training continues... James sits on the potty at school and sometimes goes. He will sit on the potty at home about once a day, but doesn't go. Baby steps... Our bigger accomplishment is that James has successfully slept in his big bed boy for almost a week. Last Friday night we tried it for the first time. I admit for the first time, Jim made a pallet next to James' bed and went to bed when James did to help ease the transition. I woke Jim later to join me in bed and James did not stir or wake all night. Now he goes to sleep all by himself, well except for his 9 stuffed animals in the bed with him, and sleeps soundly all night. He even napped in his bed this weekend too. After only a couple of protest filled nights, we now appear to have a new routine that ends in James soundly going to sleep.
I am well aware this is a process and our first bit of success might not continue. But, for now, we are grateful and a little sad at all the big boy progress our little boy has made this week.
Finally - HAPPY BIRTHDAY to James' beautiful cousin Anna Lauren tomorrow!! Hope y'all have a great day and weekend!

Wow...what a big boy James is becoming! While James is learning, Anna Lauren is still running around like crazy enjoying life. Who needs to learn when you have a cousin that is so smart he can support you one day? And last but not least, thanks for remembering her special day...we had a fabulous morning and are excited about our other birthday celebrations!
Yeah for James! The big boy bed with no protest is a huge accomplishment. Can't wait to see you in a few weeks.
