Sunday Six

Six things I want to remember about the week:

1. Jack has a new found love for playing catch. He's been rolling the ball back and forth with me for a while, but this week he's decided that the game is fun! and he wants to play it all the time! It's too cute!
2. Like I said, Jason had an opthamology appointment this week. I am so excited that his eyes are also now improving drastically, just as Shawn's eyes did. When they had first got their glasses at 12 months old, the opthamologist said that there was the possibility that their eyes would improve enough to no longer need glasses. That is looking a little more realistic now.
   
   Yay!
   
   Of course, a weaker script means that Jason needs new glasses. We went off to order them on Friday, and for the first time, he chose his own pair. (Which shocked me because Shawn could have cared less about picking his own glasses 6 months ago--I guess I thought Jay would be the same.)
   Blue glasses at that. He loves them.
   
   Sometime when I wasn't looking, my little guy started to grow up for reals. (sniff, sniff)
3. I love, love, LOVE it when Shawn will tell me out of the blue that he loves me. There is nothing better than that!
4. Shawn is doing really well with his potty training and is getting closer to being done. He thinks he outsmarted me like his brother did, by trying to get more rewards if he asked to go to the potty all the time. (He earned a Team UmiZoomi video or some time with Siri listening to "We Are Young.") But what started out as him wanting to go because he wanted to watch his show has morphed into him wanting to go because he actually needs to. Ha! Who outsmarted whom, buddy? Lol. I will admit that with Shawn I was a lot less aggressive about the whole thing. I am letting him dictate how quickly we go, which I think is working out better for him. He has a tendency to resist when he thinks things are not his idea.
5. Jack loves to move everything around. He pushes the kitchen chairs all over, takes all of the hand towels and cushion covers off, and generally leaves every room in a state of total disarray. It's crazy!
6. Tooth number two has started to loosen. It won't be long before the tooth fairy makes a return visit!
