This week Jack took over Ripley's bed, declaring that he was rebuilding it and that a big, gigantic backhoe was on the way to work on the project. In the photo, he is pulling off his socks to get down to work. Next he turned the bed over and folded it in two. I was told to go get his drill so he could take down the wall between the living room and the dining room to make way for the backhoe. Poor Ripley kept showing up and trying to get into his bed. Then he would wander out and lie down in the hall. Jack had no sympathy for Ripley, who was just expected to stay out of the construction site.
Jack creates back stories for his little people. Jessie has a house near here where a spider pooped in her kitchen. Jessie stepped in the poop. She also bopped her head. Jessie can drive most any machine and is a skilled construction worker.
Of course the highlight of the week happened Thursday when Jack peed in the potty. He had not let me dress him although by 11:00 a.m. I had gotten his diaper and pajama bottoms off. He just went into the bathroom and sat down on the potty. Imagine my surprise when he stood up and sure enough a good amount of pee! Jack instructed me to put the pee in the toilet. Then we high-fived and called Daddy and Mommie with the news.
