Aunt Bickie's Car?

My Aunt Vicki called me yesterday and wanted to take Andrew to the park. She also bought Andrew some Spongebob big boy underwear! So she put the underwear on Andrew's spongebob stuffed toy and off we went. Spongebob even sat next to Andrew with a seatbelt on :) Andrew loved Vicki's car (it's a convertible) he had never been in one before and just kept looking around and pointing out the trees. We stopped at McDonald's and got some fries and then went to the playground at the school. Andrew has been there before,so he was eager to show off his skills by climbing the ladder and going down the slide all by himself. He also impressed Vicki with how much he talks for his age. =) He's so shy and sometimes won't talk to anyone until he warms up, which takes a bit.
Then we went to a second hand store and got him some play food and kitchen accessories. (Still looking for a kitchen set) We came home and after Vicki left he looked at me and asked "Can we go in Aunt (B)icki's car?" I'm always excited when he remembers someone by name.
When daddy got home from work he asked Andrew what he did today. Usually Andrew says "oh nothin" whether he did something or not. Well this time he actually told Kenny about the park, the store and who he went with. He's growing up so fast!

So this morning I put his big boy underwear on him and brought the potty chair into the living room. I had read somewhere to do this and tell them to use the potty when they need to. It worked!! He peed in the potty! Granted he didn't pull his pants down, but he still went in the potty. He was so excited and wanted to call Grandma. Before she even answered the phone he was yelling into the speaker "gramma! gramma!" When she picked up I told her Andrew has something he want to tell you. I put it on speaker phone so she could ask him. He ran over and said "gramma gramma! I'mabigboyIpeepeeinpotty! (all one word lol)
My baby won't be a baby much longer.
