Big Steps!

Joshua's social calendar has been busy these past couple of weeks so he hasn't been available to update his blog. However, he did make a huge next step and moved into a twin sized bed on Friday. The transition was actually pretty smooth. We had been letting him play in his new room for a couple of weeks. He now goes right to that room instead of his old one to get dressed and go to bed. Guess he doesn't miss the nursery! He has done all his sleeping and naps in that room since Friday and it is going well.

Hot! Hot! Hot!

The weather has turned hot and humid. It is going to be a long summer. We are getting out now in the morning before 10am for our walks and after 6pm in the evening. Last night, when Jason came home we ate dinner and then headed to the outdoor pool at the gym. We spent over an hour swimming with Joshua. This trip I remembered to grab a few toys and the duck ended up being a good choice. He really kicked hard to get to the duck. He went under several times, jumped in from the side and swam between us. It was a great evening.

Jason has been playing games with Joshua to learn numbers and we have been working on colors, too. If you ask him what color something is he will by default say 'blue'. But if you ask him to get the green ball ( when there are multiple colors) he will pick the correct one. So it is clicking.
