Funny Girl

That Lexi cracks me up - and drives me crazy too!

We went over to the new house last night to open up the boxes from our Kenya shipment. Lexi really enjoyed playing with her toys that she was seeing for the first time in over 4 months. We had to drag her out of there screaming 'toys', 'toys' in order to be able to go back to where we will continue to live for about a week.


When I laid her down for a nap, she was quiet for a few minutes and then started saying 'diaper'. I go look to find she had taken off her pants and her diaper! (And no, I still don't believe that she is ready for potty training. Try to get her on the potty and she bucks her body away from it.)


She has been a good eater lately - though what she wants is more of the same thing: it was rice cakes and peanut butter last week and this week, saltine crackers and peanut butter. She does eat a lot at some meals and not so much at others. The floor usually gets littered with crumbs!

Then I told her I had an owie on my toe. She immediately wanted to see it - and then keep looking at - even while I was trying to change her clothes. Then she starts her story of how she got an owie ' fall down...'. Or maybe she thinks falling down is the only way to get owies and she was telling ME that was how I got my owie??

I thought Lexi might be anxious to see those old friends again. Amazing how interesting they are when you have been apart for some time.
