Big C's big day

With Monkey at camp, daddy and Big C have been able to spend some well needed and much enjoyed one-on-one time. As such, it was 'bike week'. This was a great time to cut loose at least one of the training wheels, if not both. So far his progress on the single training wheel has been outstanding. Here's what he's got to show everyone:


Thursday was our 'Big C gets to choose day'. He chose going to the library to read books in the kids area (daddy read 11 really fun ones) and then we brought 7 of them home. He got to put 1 marble for each book read into the 'jungle slide' (similar to a Marbleworks) and watch them go into the barrel in the bottom. He was pretty stoked.
Next we played together in the pool. No sitting on the sidelines for daddy, it was all one-on-one time. We had a lot of fun. Laughing. Diving. Giggling. He even said at the end 'we're buddies daddy.'. We left just seconds before the rain hit to come home for a snack.
In the late afternoon we settled in at home for some book reading and then a snuggle.
What a wonderful day with a fabulous boy.
