3.5 is not for the weak

Lauren is now 3.5 and still giving her parents a run for their money. We registered her for junior kindergarden and now she is talking a lot about school and friends. We realized that she now calls other little girls her "sisters" so it seems like we've got some explaining to do. She started soccer last week and loves to run and kick the balls with her new friends (aka, her sisters).

We are still potty training her. She has #2 accidents daily. I'm at a loss as to how to remedy this situation. I guess she'll catch on when she's ready? She understands what she needs to do, and has done it on the toilet a few times, but she seems to rather go in her pants.

She is doing this hilarious thing... she says she is going to do a  puppet show so she clears her throat and yells:
Jellygenleman....
Raiseyourboys...
BRIERSISTER......
then she bows and backs out of the room after introducing who ever it was that she was interested in. Hilarious! I have a video. I hope this never ends.

She is in a screaming stage. Everything that comes out of her mouth, happy, sad angry or otherwise is in the volume of a scream. It's driving me insane.

18 months

Brier is now 18 months old. This is my favourite age by far. She is walking, talking and has develop quite a personality. She is really asserting herself by using words like MINE! and NO! She has a look that could strike a person dead and a scream that shatters ear drums. But she also has silly little grin that breaks hearts and she often says "I Happy!"

Her vocabulary has exploded. She loves to eat and gets very grouchy when she is hungry. She loves to brush her teeth and wash her hands and she loves dogs. Which will some day be to her detriment I'm sure.

She wants to do everything Lauren does and is now becoming physically able to. She and Lauren started soccer last week. So far she would rather hold the ball and run with it than put it down and kick.
