The best news of all is that she has not played in the toilet in months! She hasn't pulled my hair in weeks. Taylor hasn't been so lucky on that one. She isn't biting nearly as much. She is following some directions. She is sitting still for a few minutes at a time. She is still getting into my bathroom and wreaking havoc! She is saying about 10 words. She is signing over 55 words! She started school last week! She only pulled one girl's hair! She is not potty trained yet. And I think she understood that I was pretty mad when she tried to change her own dirty diaper.... a few times...😝
I still can't wait for the day we can have an actual conversation. Or the day I can trust her in the next room for 1 minutes.
I think so far the best thing has been watching the relationship between her and the rest of the kids. Julian is such a doting big brother. When he sees her his whole face lights up. Of course, he doesn't do diapers. But he will watch her for a little bit! Caroline is the official babysitter and the second Mom. She does diapers, gets her food, and plays. Taylor is the idol. Natalie will do anything Taylor is doing. She will copy every move. She can not wait for them to get off the bus in the afternoon. If she is going to ask me anything during the day it is about Caroline getting off the bus!
She eats very well and can feed herself for the most part. She can dress and undress and dress and undress.... She has starting playing with a couple toys every now and then for more than one second! She likes some movies, right now its Mr. Peabody and Sherman. She says "babababa" to ask for it. For Free Birds she signs bird. For signing time she signs Alex and Leah, or sometimes she signs signing time.
She has many big adventures and exciting things coming up... Spring Break in Siesta Key, Zoo Camp this summer, and a trip to Disney World to name a few! Many pictures of these things to come!
