Hi Everyone,

Yesterday was Father's Day. We had a lot of fun as a family. We tried to make Daddy's day the best. My mood did not start out very good, but by the Father's Day picnic I was okay. All I wanted to do was play with the balls. Mommy let me run "wild" and I got to play with other kids and of course the ball. I did okay with the other kids. Mommy was pleased with my behavior. I ate a whole hot dog and then took a quick nap. It was time to go to Ahmi and P's house. I had a real good time there! Ahmi filled up my pool and I played with the water for awhile. Then I took my lawnmower and went all around the backyard. I first asked Ahmi about the dog poop, and Ahmi said it was all gone :) I had to venture out into the neighbor's yard and play on the community play set. Mommy found a dead blue jay and made Ahmi pick it up. I was totally not bothered by the dead bird - I just wanted to play on the swings. I had a fun , but busy day! I slept real well last night!! :)

My behavior was strange on Saturday and Sunday. It started Saturday night. Just couldn't control myself. Sunday, I was terrible at church. I couldn't sit still. Mommy and I missed a lot of the service. We know it's because I am two, but we are at the point where I can understand more. Mommy and Daddy know that I am a smart boy and I can understand what is going on. So, there will be more punishments coming my way :( Mommy and Daddy want to make sure that I am always a good boy and my behavior does not get out of hand. I have some tough parents!

We had a potty breakthrough on Saturday night. I said "poop" and Mommy asked me if I wanted to go sit on the potty, and I ran to the potty! Mommy took off my diaper and my cheeks hit the seat and that was all. We are very happy - it was a start. We have a looooong way to go, but it was something.

I am feeling a little sleepy, I need my nap. Have a wonderful Day!! Love, Niko
