July 11th,  2008 - Today is Friday and we had a Splash Day at school. Seems like they have more fun activities on Friday. My mother packed an extra set clothes for me alongwith special Swimmers diapers. Today we also did the following activities in school  

July 8th,  2008 - The potty adventures (or should I say misadventures) continue. My parents are trying to get me potty trained for the last few days and they have made some progress. At least now I tell Poo-pee, Poo-pee after I am done so its a step in the right direction.

They  are trying a new trick on me and they got a new DVD called "Go Potty Go" and its a 20 minute DVD that talks about sitting on the potty now that I am a big boy. They have also kept the potty near the TV so that I am encouraged to work on it. This morning I sat on the potty and did my poopee so they are keeping their finger crossed that I am getting the message.

July 7th,  2008 -  Today marks the start of the 2nd week of going to school and since we were coming off a long weekend, my parents thought I may not be very happy to go to school. My mom took me to school and once I saw the school, I started saying "No Way No Way" and had to be reluctantly pulled from the car. Once we were in, I went in without much of a fuss. My teacher Lindsey took me to the kitchen and my mother went home. 

July 5th,  2008 - We have been to the Dallas Zoo a couple of times and so my parents decided to go to the Fort Worth Zoo which is apparently the better zoo. We reached there a little late in the morning and the Zoo was relatively crowded with the holiday crowd. My parents took me on the Choo Choo train and we saw many animals and birds like the falmigoes, bobcat, jaguar, some snakes, butterflies, horses, cows, ducks. These are all the things that I see in my books and now I was able to see them in person. 

We spent a couple of hours in the zoo and then we had lunch. I had some nuggets and apple juice. It was a very hot day and so we came home pretty quickly. I think I like the Dallas Zoo better (its probably because there is a small water area I can play in)
