Nothing New

Hi everyone!
I just wanted to update this blog... it's been awhile since I have written anything new.
Amelia is plugging and chugging away. She's working really hard to get her Pillow Pet (which I want to let everyone know is hiding away in a closet) for going pee pee and poop in the toilet. She's really good at going #1, but #2 we're trying to get her to tell us instead of hiding away in a corner or in her new princess tent. So far she's doing really good at telling us when she's got to go poop. She's got one more time before she can get that pillow pet. We're excited. She's been waking up pretty dry. Every once in awhile she will have a little pee in the diaper. I would say she's about 90% potty trained. One day we will ask if she wants to wear her panties to bed. But I am not pushing it too hard. I am just glad she's going potty on a regular basis.
Elaina is growing up soooo fast. She's starting to say more and more words: blankie, popcorn, grandpa, etc. She loves to dance and do her sprout stretch at night. She's also getting more and more impossible at times. She's learning so much from her sister, good and bad. She definitely knows what she wants and she is stubborn as all get out. Elaina is a pretty good kid. I couldn't ask for anything more. She's also exhibiting more independence. We can now leave her for a few minutes to run to the bathroom or grab something upstairs. We know she won't get into too much mischief. But she does like to open all the kitchen cabinets. She's certainly a busy little girl.
As for both of them. They are getting along very well. Some days are better than others. I know that lately Amelia has been getting more assertive with Elaina. If she wants something, she'll push Elaina. But we're trying to correct that behavior. Other than that... nothing much is new.
Last night Grandma and Grandpa came over to deliver their Valentine's Day gifts... Amelia got a Cinderella plush doll and Elaina got Jasmine. They also got chocolate, candy and snacky foods. Amelia loves her Cinderella doll. It's so funny because Cinderella is making decisions for her. (As I speak, Elaina is pushing the doll stroller with a blanket over her head. Crazy kid).
Until next time....
