This cutie has less than a month until her 2nd birthday and she used the potty several times last weekend! Where has my tiny baby gone? She is speaking in sentences, singing Christmas songs, and exerting her independence as often as possible. She loves to say, "I'ma do it". She wants to pick out her own "baby (s)poon", her shoes, her clothes, etc. She wants to climb in to her crib and on top of her changing table. She wants to dress and undress herself. The list goes on and on.
She had gumbo for the first time recently and LOVED it. Not afraid to try anything. Eats yogurt or oatmeal most mornings for first breakfast. A granola bar typically follows later.
She and her brother are typical siblings. Arguing over books and toys one minute, playing or reading sweetly together the next. He loves to get her out of her bed and to teach her new things. This week he taught her how to turn on the Christmas tree, so that's the first thing she wants to do each morning and when we get home in the evening.
Sullivan has been doing well. He's reading so well and doing great with his math. He's a worrier like his Mom and is already stressing out about 1st grade. I've got to set a better example in regard to stress and new things and hard work! He wants to stay in Kindergarten forever, and I can't say I blame him! I'm definitely still unsettled about whether this current school is the right place for us, but can't do much about at the moment anyway.
We had his 6th birthday at the Arcade. It was chaotic, but quick and easy for me. Hard to believe he is already 6! We've been going through his toys to make donations since he was inundated with more "stuff". Having birthday and Christmas so close makes for gift overload in my book. Poor Evie will have it even worse.
