One of the things I love about my temporary move back home is that we are so close to the Washington Mall and museums. Today Leon and I went to the American History Museum (what better place to go than that on Memorial Day) and checked out the first American flag and a larger than life size replica of a bison. Leon probably would say he enjoyed it more when he was "free" to run around. Since he didn't have a on a diaper, I had to take him out of the stroller to pee. Then he was free. Blame it on the terrible twos, but Leon mostly loathes his stroller. It's so bad that he gets something every time he sits in his seat like a box of raisins, a box of juice, a container of broccoli (no joke, he eats broccoli and other veges for snacks), or a toy that he already had but forgot.
Potty training update: Poo pooing is a problem. Leon doesn't seem like that entire process out of the diaper. Peeing is a problem if he is engaged like watching Barney or playing with his trains. You can actually watch him squeezing his legs together to try to keep from having to pee. Then he usually says "pee pee" too late and starts to cry when he looks down and sees he is all wet. If he is not overly engaged we run to the potty (poseta) and he does his business no problem. For me it's getting harder and harder to help him with the peeing process and washing his hands because even with his new stool (thanks Grandma) I have to hold him or bend down a lot.
Back to Memorial Day, after the zoo we had a picnic on mall with Leon's favorite friends, two new trains he got for his birthday (thanks Wendy and John) and a school bus he kinda robbed/borrowed from a kid at a playground a few weeks ago (but the mom and I planned to exchange toys again last week but she didn't show up).
