Gone Fishin'

With great grandfathers on both sides being excellent fishers, B seems to have the knack for it too! Dad is certain B surpassed his own lifetime record when B caught 3 fish in 30min of his first go at it. Too bad he's not much on eating them. After the day he was asked if he was going to eat his fish he replied, "No." And then: "They're yucky! They have bones in them." So he did let them go. Mom wasn't too keen on cooking them either.

What was planned as an EQ activity turned into the Lewis' and Snider's.

B was using her fishing pole - though they are the best of buddies, B insists she's not his friend, "she's a girl."

The 3rd one!

Talk about beautiful scenery!

B Turns 3!

Granted, not posted as quickly as E's big day, but it was a big deal just to have hers posted before his, given they're just 6 days apart!

Potty Time!

B welcomed the dismissal of diapers! Although the first 48 hours involved much laundry and arguing over sitting on the potty. J was convinced he wasn't ready, but a friend encouraged her to give it a full week first. After the first day she figured if she made it for 3 it would be good enough to take a break. He knew how to hold it, just not to let it go. He'd get so mad when he couldn't hold it any longer, feeling like he'd failed. But he's now learned the trick and realizes you can't hold it forever. Whew!
Way to go B!
