We, meaning me since Marc had school, were able to take the kids to the Draper Temple Open House about 2 weeks ago. It was a neat experience. Aden recently turned 5 and it was such a good age. He was really interested in everything and asked lots of questions. It was a cold night but lots of fun. I got this tent at a garage sale last summer and set it up last week. I thought it would be up for a day or two but it hasn't come down yet. We've played and played, and even slept in it. Aden wanted to sleep in it the other night. Sure, why not? Well, I came in before heading to bed and found that Lincoln had decided to join him. He wants to do whatever Aden does, even refusing to sit in his booster seat and wanting to sit on a normal chair because Aden does. It can get frustrating but I'm glad Linc loves his big brother so much!
Lincoln has also learned how to put on his own shoes, especially his rain boots, and this coming week we're going to attempt potty training. He's only 22 months but I think he could do it. We tried last week and although he might be ready, I wasn't! I'd forgotten about all the messes it makes. We'll see if I have courage to try again.
We start Aden's 2nd session on swim lessons this week and soccer starts in 2 weeks. Between that and preschool, he's a busy boy! I had to register him for kindergarden-that was surreal. I'm sure I"ll be one of those moms who cries when I drop him off. :)
