"I got my first swimming suit so I could swim in the 'big kid' pool. If my mommy wasn't watching I would dive right in. Sometimes I drink too much of the water though.

"My daddy came home from Florida this week, and I was so excited he was home. I didn't want to let him out of my sight, and I wanted to spend every waking moment with him for a couple of days.

"I made one huge accomplishment this week. I stopped using my binky (actually mommy lost it so she decided I was done.) I had a hard time taking naps for a while, but I'm slowly getting used to it."
