Another Big Girl Step

I'm a big girl now.  I do a lot of big girl stuff and I finally decided to go on the potty.  I had to get rid of those diapers before the baby comes.  I have been doing a really good job.  I had no accidents at Alice's house this week.  Mommy and Daddy have been really proud of me - just like the girl in the potty book!  I don't know why I waited, it is much better than diapers.  I still wear pull ups when I go to bed but I'm doing really good when I sleep so I can probably get rid of those pretty soon too.

(Note: In addition, she can turn a chair into a rubber banded musical instrument...a multi-talented little girl.)

Big Sister Stuff

If you don't know, I have to tell you something.  My Mommy is having a baby!  I'm going to be a big sister.  I am so excited.  Mommy asks me, "Is it going to be a boy or a girl?"  I always say "a boy and a girl!".  Daddy looks sick every time I say that.  But that would be so fun to have a boy and a girl baby.  My only babies now are pretend babies, like baby Abby (Baby Alive) and baby Belle. I'm ready for a real one.

(Mommy/Daddy Note: Luciana and Riley are already is using the baby as leverage.  These are 2 conversations that happened today:

We told Luci she had to give Riley a couple of her Hello Kitty stickers...
Riley: I want to pick a sticker.
Luci: No. I pick.
Riley: I wanna pick it!
Luci: No!
Riley: Well, when the baby comes I'm not going to play with you!  I'm just going to play with the baby.
Luci (matter of factly): When the baby comes, you can pick.


Then Mommy was trying to talk to Luci about her stubbornness with potty training....
Mommy: Are you going to wear panties?
Luci: No.
Mommy: Aren't you a big girl? Only babies wear diapers.
Luci: Babies and Luci wear diapers.
Mommy: What about when we have a baby?
Luci: Then I wear panties.

Too funny.

Birthday Pictures

I had 2 birthday parties!  I had a party on my real birthday and me and Riley had a part on our shared birthday.  Riley always like to help me open presents.

We had a party at the 'nastics place.  It was a lot of fun.  My friends were there and I climbed on stuff.  I was swinging on a rope like a pirate.  Yesterday, I was singing "Jake and the Neverland Pirates" so I guess I was ready to swing on a rope.

I love purple!!!  

I'm Three!

Happy Birthday to me!  I'm finally 3 today!!!  Today is my birthday but I'm having a party with Riley next week.  Gram and Poppy called me on the phone and sang "Happy Birthday" to me.

I got to pick lunch.  I picked my favorite place to eat....McDonalds!  I ate some chicken nuggets and apples and drank some chocolate milk.  That is how this girl celebrates her birthday.

Go IU!

I went to the football game.  I like being a cheerleader and dancing.  I yell "Go IU, Go IU"! 

We went to little kid field and played football with Daddy.  He was chasing us and I was running and screaming.  And me and Riley pulled him down and jumped on him on the ground.  It was so fun!

Miss Independent Luci

 

Hello?  I have not been typing on the computer for awhile.  I been busy though.  Riley is going to school now.  So I go to Alice's house all by myself.  Daddy still drives me but I go in there myself.  I was asking about Riley the first day but since then I have been okay with it.  Now I am one of the big kids and Riley isn't telling me what to do.  I like seeing my friends there again.  It has been okay but I want to be bigger so I can go to school too.  Someday.

I am still going "nastics" class.  I was in a class with my friend Cammie.  We had fun.  Look at this picture with Riley.  She always has to win!  But now I am with the threes (years old).   When you are with the threes your Mommy and Daddy don't help you.  I get to do it all by myself.  I have to listen to the teacher and I have been doing a good job.  Mommy said so. 

There is something else that Mommy and Daddy want me to do myself....I can't remember what it is. I think it was in some room in the house.  But I can't remember. I'll let you know...

Mommy's School Helper

I went to my Mommy's school.  There were no kids there.  But I helped her work on her school room.  I put pencils in the desks and wiped off the drawing boards.  I like wiping stuff off.  I squirted bottle stuff on my hands because I thought it was "hanitizer" (sanitizer).  But Mommy said it wasn't and I was supposed to play with it.  It was soap for the drawing boards. I had to go wash my hands. 

I have to tell you something too.  I found my letter on the floor!  L is my letter.  The floor has everybody's letter.  It has Riley's letter and Daddy's letter too.  But I like my letter the best.  I showed it to Mommy and Daddy.

Riley is getting ready to go school.  I want to be old enough to go to school. I am going to be three on my next birthday.  Then I am going to be four and five and I will go to school too.
