What A Cutie!

My gorgeous girl has been putting on her own clothes and shoes before she even turned 2. She’d put her own shoes on and take them off when she’s told to. She likes to take her own nappy before her bath. She usually says, “Lana do it”, when she wants to do something herself.

 

This morning, as she was getting ready to go to child care, I asked her to put her own shoes and socks. As we were pressed of time, neither Russ nor me checked if she’s put them on properly. Besides, she’s done a good job  100% of the time getting herself ready so we didn’t bother checking them.

 

As I was getting her out of the car, I noticed that she was wearing her shoes on the wrong foot and her socks weren’t even put on properly. I just gave her a big kiss for trying to be independent. She is just sooooooooooooo cute! (Sigh!)

 

Terrible Tot on Toilet Training

It’s been two weeks since Lana started going to toilet to do a wee. She’s been doing it before having a bath at night. She would insist and would say, “Lana do wee in the toilet” after she’s taken her nappy off. I thought she was just having a play but she is really is doing a wee every time she sits on it. So, last week, I grabbed a toilet ring from Big W so she could be as comfortable as she can when nature calls.

 

Russ was still against the idea of her sitting on the toilet as she has a potty. But it seems that Lana doesn’t like her potty anymore. She used it a few times to do a wee but now she’s totally ignoring it.

 

And since I want to incorporate a toilet training session in our morning routine, we got up 15 minutes early today so I could sit her on the toilet after breakfast. I want her to be in a habit of sitting on the toilet either to do a wee or poo in the morning before we go out. And this morning, she did a big wee!

 

At 2 years and 2 months old, she’s very enthusiastic about doing it. Perhaps she could see her mates in childcare going to toilet. O perhaps, she’s ready to do the big girl ‘thing’ and do what big kids do! Whatever it is, it’s going to be a big help once she stopped using nappies…a big help to mother nature and a big help to Mummy’s grocery bill!

 

Well done, Lana! You’re one smart kid!

"Can I have more toast, please, Mum?"

"Mum, I know you like your iPhone so much, but I want my breakfast! And stop taking pictures of me!"
