Weekly Update

More summer appropriate weather! Hooray! We spent a lot of time outside again this week. Today we went to the Portland Farmer's Market downtown - Henry loves the strawberries (although, from the look on his face in this picture it looks like he got one of the more sour ones!). I took Henry down to the South Waterfront to wade in a fountain - he really enjoyed that. The water was freezing, but it was so hot out that it felt really nice. The other two pictures are from last weekend when we went to Dickinson Park for the Movies in the Parks celebration.

Henry is getting pretty good at peeing on the potty. I think it might be almost time to really start with the potty training. He asks to go pee just about every night before his bath (or shower, as they've been recently) - some times he is successful, sometimes not...but he does ask to try. He is still wanting to do everything himself and is bossing us around a lot. For instance, he wanted me to hand him something, but I was busy so Brett handed it to him instead. This caused a big fuss that was only remedied by me taking it and then handing it back to him. The kid wants what he wants, when he wants it and the way he wants it! Typical two year old. :)
