Lauren update

I figured I better take the time to write this down somewhere before I forget. Lauren has hit the 2's wide open, but aside from all the trouble she gets into, she's also saying lots of new things all the time.

A couple of days ago I was making scrambled eggs for breakfast. She pushed a chair up to the cabinet to watch what I was doing. She saw the uncooked eggs in the pan and said, "Ewwww, gross!". It didn't keep her from eating them though.

The same day, I heated up some leftover chicken pot pie that my mother-in-law sent home with us. Same thing, "Ewww, gross!", over and over again. Sorry, dear. I didn't mean to gross you out.

Later that evening, some peppy music came on on the show we were watching and she said, "Wow, awesome!".

And the one I think is the cutest: Yesterday she followed me into the bathroom like she always does. She's in the very early stages of being interested in potty-training and thinks she needs to flush the potty for whoever is using the potty. She jibber-jabbered something I didn't understand, but I did catch the word 'flush' in there. I asked her if she wanted to flush the potty and she said, "Yes, sir." LOL! I guess she picked that up from mom and dad having to correct the brothers all the time. At least someone around here is learning some manners!

And poor Jack . . . . she thinks he belongs to her, but I'm almost positive he has other ideas. He tolerates her pretty well, thankfully.
