Lauren's newest thing is to say "Cuddle Pwease" and I pick her up for a cuddle. So very unlike her. Least cuddly kid. Ever.
So she and I go into Brier's room this morning to get her out of bed. I'm just about to pick Brier up when Lauren says "Mommy, cuddle pwease" so I pick her up. She looks over Brier's crib and says to her "Sorry Brower, I cuddle mommy."
For a kid who can't talk, she really knows how to rub it in.
Sorry Brower.

Potty Prison
I have no idea how to potty train a child.
Lauren is going to be 3 in 7 weeks and she is no where near potty trained. I am going to have the only child who can't go to school when she's 4 because she's still wearing diapers. I bought the diapers that are supposed to turn cold when they pee and make them uncomfortable and aware. She didn't even notice. Sigh.
We've tried candy, stickers, parties, praise, but non of it matters to her.
I don't know what to do next.

They're all talk
This morning I gave Lauren her daily bowl of dry Cheerios for her pre-breakfast snack, and out of nowhere she said to me "Thank you your Majesty!" and bowed. Yep, that's right kid, mommy's the queen!
Brier is even working on her vocabulary, she now says Mamma, Dadda, Hi and Thank you. Seriously, she does.

Bye bye baby!
Dear Brier,
Tomorrow you turn one year old. You will go from being a happy, joyous baby to a bright eyed, mischievous toddler.
Your first year has been amazing. From the moment you were born you were so happy and sweet. People are constantly asking "is she always this quiet/happy/sweet?" and the answer has always been, yes!
You have fallen into the roll of second born with grace and ease. You are observant and quick both mentally and physically. You have 6 1/2 teeth and you rock every one of them! Your big blue/grey eyes sparkle and scrunch up when you smile and you love to dance. I can tell all ready that you are going to be the climber, the mischief seeker and the one who will win everyone over with your personality to get your way.
You are still crawling around on one knee while using the other leg to propel you along faster. You love to climb the stairs when we forget the shut the gate, and swish your hand and arm around in the toilet bowl when we don't close the bathroom door quickly enough.
Your daddy and I have always felt so lucky to be your parents. We couldn't have asked for a better baby and we wish you could stay this age forever. Knowing that you can't, we look forward to watching you grow, hearing your voice and seeing who you become.
Happy birthday sweet girl!
