Building dining room forts...

Life here in Georgia is going pretty well!
Slade's almost two and is growing to be quite the independant, loving little man. He's learning the thrills of potty training, and refuses to sit in a wet or poopy diaper. He takes his dirty diapers off himself, then plops down on his potty chair. We haven't gotten him to actually USE the chair for its purpose- rather, it's a place to recline while waiting for mom or dad to fetch a clean diaper. I think once he pees in it, he'll catch on immediately, but I'm not sure how to coax it out while he sits.
He's also tall enough to turn on the lights all over the house. Barely reaching, he's up on his tip-toes and 'helps' to also turn them off when asked. He figured that one out yesterday.
I cut his mohawk off cuz it was grown out and looked more like a mullet when we didn't style it, and being in Georgia is bad enough- I don't like my kid to blend in so well, lol.
Here's a few pictures to update everyone!

Working with Dad in the garage, building a speakerbox...


Enjoying the newly constructed (and colored) fort in the dining room...
Always one of action, don't mind the blurry Slade as he's caught eating a crayon
Peekaboo!
A secret hideout for serious truck-playing


And after a long scream-fit on the 4th of July, we find our Slade curled up in his secure fort, asleep...
Blurry, but an adorable picture nonetheless
Goofing around with Dad
Playing with the kitten instead of getting his diaper changed
Don't mind it being sideways- fish kisses!
