Photographic Memory?

Tonight we discovered that Nicholas' memory is much better than we had imagined. Up to now, we knew that he had a gift for remembering names and we knew his vocabulary was very strong. We also knew that he could remember the words to songs and fill in the blanks when we read him stories, but tonight he went one better. While Jennifer was reading him one of his stories and she paused, Nicholas continued "reading" the story from memory. He was able to go a two or three sentences before Jennifer would give him another push and he'd go another sentence or two, LITERALLY word for word.

Potty Time

Last night, Nicholas asked to do pee-pee on the potty. We put him on his potty seat (that sits on the real toilet) and, sure enough, he did his thing. He also said he wanted to do poopy, but all he could manage was some gas!
