The Life of Lorelai

So the past few months, Lorelai has really been a joy! She has been learning so much and doing so many new things, I just love hanging out with her and having fun! Here are just a few random cute "Lorelai things" . . . .

We have always called Lorelai's pacifiers "suckies." This came from all 4 of my sister's children calling them that, I guess it just stuck! She is pretty good for the most part mainly needing them at bedtime, and she cannot go to bed with just one or two, it is usually about 12! She snuggles up in the corner and scoops them all up to her face, and this needs to happen for her to fall asleep!

She has a few favorite things, lately it has been clocks, babies, and shoes. I am sure that her small obsession for shoes has come from my sister Tracy, cause it definatly has not come from me! Lorelai is even good about knowing the difference between her crocs and her sneakers, because "croc" was one of her first words when she got them! She goes crazy in the mall when we pass a store with shoes out on display. Here she is watching Elmo in my shoes . . . too cute!
One of the big things we have been starting to work on has been going on the potty! For awhile she showed a big interest in it, but now, it is slowly diminishing. She loves to sit on the potty as soon as her diaper is off, but it doesn't always last long! We do a lot of the "itsy bitsy spider"! At Appletree, when they successfully go on the potty, they get an apple with their name on the wall. Lorelai woke up dry one afternoon, so Miss Jessica put her on the potty and she WENT!!! Big girl!! I was sad that I missed it, but so proud of her! We are yet to do it again . . . .
