a few videos

these are not in chronological order, but are all within a few months of each other.

i like to dance, even just after i wake up in the morning...and yep, to lullabyes even

riding a two wheeler before i am even three years old....i feel sooo big! i am learning about the brakes, but after today, i think i figured it out! we hav eyet to take the training wheels off my bike because it is pretty big, so i am borrowing leo's little bike to learn on.

i do love my gymnastics class! this is my very first day in the big boy class! we learned how to go backwards and i did awesome! it took me a few spins to figure out how to turn backwards on the mat so I could practice my backroll. mama was in the stands, but i did not know it. benjamin, one of the bigger kids in my class was assigned to help me. we did all kinds of stuff, and he would do it first, then i would watch and try to do it. mama watch in astonishment as i leaped off a foam pad 5 feet off the ground to grab a high bar and swing from it...the pad was supposed to be under the high bar so we could just reach up and grab it...after the instructor saw me hanging there and could not figure out how i got there, he moved it to the correct place...it took me a while to muster up the courage to make that jump...but i did it...and nailed it too! good thing, or mama might have had some serious words with the instructor.

Here we are months after my last blog post, and my how I have grown in size, mind and physical capabilities. I learned how to ride a bike, not just with training wheels, but when Leo took off down the alley (he is 4.5), I wanted to be free too, so, mama was in DC with Auntie Em, and papa let me ride on 2 wheels and I did it! I can count to 11, write an E, spell my name, and I know exactly where I live. Today I recited the days of the week...got thru Monday to Friday, and then, the sixth day and Sunday. Mama and papa were clueless where I got the sixth day from, and tried to convince me it was Saturday, but whatever. Papa forgot his wallet and mama had to go back and take it to him and I said "Damnit, what is taking him so long"...mama tried not to laugh, then tried to be stern and tell me that was not a nice way to talk....I got me some puddle stompers and tonight went out the freezing cold rain and stomped some serious puddles...some up to my knees....
we planted our garden this weekend too! mama gave franny the notice that my last day is may 19, I will start big boy school when we get back from our may vacation. it was sad day, and will be harder when it actually comes. life is good though. we are all super busy...but life is good.
