Toilets and trains

I am so good about going pee and poop in the toilet now.  I don't even need Mom to remind me or ask me.  I just tell Mom and then I run into the bathroom.  I sometimes have trouble pulling my undies back up all the way, so Mommy helps me.  Other than that, I do it on my own, though.

My favorite words lately are colors and numbers.  I like to count things I see and count the things in books.  I also like to say the colors of things.  It's so fun to learn new things.  I can't wait to learn more.

Grandma gave me a train and tracks.  I put the train tracks together by myself and drive the trains on them.  It is my favorite toy.  When we are driving in the car, I like to tell Mom every time I see train tracks.  Sometimes I hear the train when we go outside or when I am in my bedroom.  It is so much fun.  I also really like to see airplanes and helicopters.  I love the bathtub.  Every day I tell Mom when I want to take a bath.  I get to play with my boat in the bathtub.  Whenever I see a boat I tell Mom it's time to take a bath.

I am a really good helper.  I help Mom put laundry in the washer and dryer.  I put dishes in the sink and sometimes in the dishwasher.  Every evening I help Mom, Dad, and Sage clean up the toys and I sing the clean up song.  I also know where to put my shoes away and where to put Sage's shoes when we come home.  When we go to the store and the cashier gives me a sucker for a treat, I get two and give one to Sage.  I am a really good brother.  I gives toys to Sage when Mom asks me to (well, most of the time), and I tackle her and make her laugh.  We have so much fun, but I sometimes don't like it when she grabs the toys I like to play with, like my train.  I like to give Sage her milk cup or her blanket when I find them, too.  I like my little sister, but when Daddy asks me if I want a brother or another sister, I say "brother".
