Jeremy's first time skiing, peeing in potty


Two big milestones in one week... wait, make that three: Jeremy has also transitioned from sleeping in his crib to the mattress on the floor.  This evening, without any prompting or encouragement at all, he peed in his potty.  So proud!

Here's the story of the skiing: We spent last weekend at Vail (no, we weren't witness to the shooting by the crazed vet, although we did walk by the CBI van and wondered what was up).  I was giving a lecture on leadership to the Colorado Nursery and Greenhouse Owners and Managers meeting (that's another story), and we got two comped nights at the Marriott (Jeremy loved jumping on the bed).  Anyhow, we borrowed a pair of kiddie skis from a neighbor that just strap onto regular boots and took Jeremy to the only slope that had snow (Golden Peak) where the racers were training, including the under-10 yrs old set.  Jeremy was really excited about skiing and about the skiers.  Mommy and Mama each held a hand and we skidded around on the icy fake snow for a few minutes, including going down a small slope.  What a big boy!
