October 6

Hi little man!
I was miserable sick today so I didn't see you this morning. Then, I asked Grampa to pick you up at Mary's. I went until 6:00 pm to see you and you know what? It was kind of worth it. You saw me and got all excited. You tugged at my heart! When I pick you up at Mary's, you smile at me but you are so happy there, you don't need me. But, today, you smiled, giggled and just plain got excited. Thank you for making my week!

We had another exciting night - after your nap, I put you on the potty chair and we had success! 3 for 3 big boy. We are so proud of you. I think you like sitting on your throne having your subjects sitting on the floor with you acting silly! I clap, I sing that you went potty, we high 5. Yes, kid, your parents are dorks but it was one less messy diaper we had to clean up! I think your dad is pretty impressed with you going potty on the chair - I think he uses the word genius. But, he knows that it is just kind of an accident and the heavy lifting won't come for another year!

Well, that is about it dude. I really hope I feel back to normal soon so we can hang out and play more. I even missed your bath tonight.
