James made his two-wheel riding debut a few weeks ago and he is now an absolute maniac on the bike, pedaling faster than his little legs should be able to for not quite 3 1/2. It is so great to have a 3rd boy and see how fast he catches on to things for the sheer purpose of not being left behind. This morning he fell off his bike, looks up at me and says, "I'm okay, boo-yah! That's what Jace says when he isn't hurt." He cracks me up. He also had another funny episode at the mall playground the other day.
James (climbing to the top of a plastic flower, shouting to the place where I'm sitting) Hey Mom!
Me: Yeah?
James: Never mind! (a few seconds) Actually I was going to say B-U-T-T, but I know I'm not supposed to, so I said never mind.
Awesome that James can spell both but and butt and knows the difference in usage well enough to say, "But I was saying the good but, you know like, 'but mom!'" He kills me. I now know how to get him to learn to read...start with inappropriate and potty words first.

At least you know what you need to do to motivate this kid.
Four letter words are the easiest to spell! Congrats to James on the bike riding!
Oh, I love that boy. I can picture him saying "boo-yah!" Also though I am wondering why he was going to say b-u-t-t in the first place? Like, Hey mom! Butt! So funny. He is darling and I am missing your family like crazy!
THREE & a Half & riding a bike with no training wheels?!?! That is amazing! What a little trooper! I love that he wants to be like his big brothers & NOTHiNG will stop him! So cute! As for the B-U-T-T thing...HILARIOUS!!! Your boys are as cute as they come!
