This was a fun morning.  I kept GGM and Barbara hopping by having them play all my regular activities.  They only thing Barbara really did not want to play was "tell me stories."  She did agree to tell me stories if I would keep eating while she talked.  Sometimes I eat a few bites and then I am ready to quit eating because I would rather be doing something else, so this method seems to keep me at the table awhile longer.

 I have learned to use a stylus on the iPad.  I insist on using it now that I know how.

I watched Little Red Tractor on the iPad while resting.

I helped vacuum the dinning room floor and the chairs.  We are still trying to get rid of fine dust from the two-room remodeling.  The kitchen is completely finished except for some wall painting but that is for another crew to do the same time they paint the bathroom.

GGF, Barbara, and I took 6 boxes of stuff to Good Will. 

About 20 minutes into the 30 minute drive to my swim lesson, I told Barbara to wake me up when we got to Miss Sherries.  She looked in the rear-view mirror and I already had my eyes shut.  She woke me up when we arrived.  GGF came to my swim lesson. He could tell I have improved. 

When I first started learning to float Miss Sherrie would get me to float to the count of ten.  Today she counted to 24 and the next time she counted to 20. 

Miss Sherrie still has to remind me that she is the teacher and she will decide what we are going to do.  Mimz was at my lesson and she took me home with her.

Mimz and I went to the car wash.  I love these kind of things.
At Mimz home we had an ice cream sandwich and told stories.  That made me sleepy but I resist falling asleep.  I have been starting naps between 3 and 4pm and that is just too late because I then don't want to go to sleep at a reasonable hour.  Mimz had a job cut out for her to try to keep me awake.

If I have a step I can use the big potty.   A few times I have put on my big boy underwear and my shorts by myself.   They say I am growing up so fast.  It won't be long before I won't need help with some things, like potty breaks and getting dressed.
