This will be a post with no pictures (sorry) but very cute stories of Amelia in the last weeks. She is talking a lot more and it is funny to hear what she comes up with somedays.
Tonight at bedtime snack we asked who she would like to have put her to bed, mommy or daddy. She thought for a minute and then with a big smile said "Nobody." I think she figured if she said this she would not have to go to bed. Smart girl.
We have been working more on potty training (it seems endless some days). Amelia has eagerly been awaiting the day when she could get princess underwear. I would explain that when she could keep her pull up dry for the day we would go to underwear. After weeks of talking about this and still getting occassinally wet pull-ups, I thought maybe the incentive of getting princess underwear might be a new motivator so off to Target we went. While searching through the undergarment aisle, Amelia all of the sudden blurted out "Boobies too?" I wondered what she was talking about and then realized that she associated underwear with another undergarment worn on top and she figured when you got one you got the other. I had to explain that we would not be getting "boobies" today. She then asked, "2 days?" 2 days is her common phrase when she doesnt want to do something or is waiting for something to happen. Through the rest of Target she kept saying to people "Underwear, no boobies."
By the way we went through 3 pairs of underwear in 2 hours before she decided she had enough and wanted to go back to pull-ups. We are still working on it!!
