The biggest news is that our very independent youngest daughter decided that she wants to be like her big sis and use the big girl potty. On March 2nd Lexi went pee pee on the potty at only 17 months old! After dinner mom took the girls downstairs to play after and Lexi went right in to the bathroom, Amy asked her to come out but she didn't. Amy walked over to the bathroom and there Lexi was climbing up on to the potty. Lexi was pointing to her diaper so Amy asked her if she had to go potty and Lexi nodded yes. Amy put her in the potty, but the Sydney yelled she needed something, so Amy stepped away for a minute. When she went back to check on Lexi, she had gone potty! And she even realize she did it... when Amy asked if she had gone pee pee, Lexi nodded yes!!
Other news for Lexi... Her words are exploding! Here is a sample of what she says frequently, she has many more, but here are the key ones: Mommy, Daddy, Milk, Please, Pretty, Diaper, Help, Hurt, Up, Book, Go, Bath, Potty, More, Puppy, Kitty, Bird & Monkey.
