Babes to Toddlers

Rory has such a vocabulary! She repeats almost everything we say. She said her first phrase this week, she brought me a book and said "Read It?" She is almost 18 mos.

Evie's vocab has been quite colorful to say the least! This is my fault, and I need to watch what I say when I am angry. My stress seems to also be affecting her potty training. She went a week or two with no accidents and now if she is watching TV, or busy playing, will sometimes forget to go to the bathroom. On the other hand she is really good at asking to go while we are out and about. But this is because she finds it fun to see the bathrooms in stores. We spent half an hour at the restroom at Lull Farm, and every time we go to LL Bean she has to go in there at least twice. Certainly makes shopping a bit more time consuming and now that Rory likes to walk around and play chase I don't exactly want to be at stores very long!

I love to see them interacting and playing. Evie calls Rory her "sweetheart" or her "little strawberry". We still nap together and I am remembering the days when Rory was just born and her little starfish hands would seem so tiny next to Evie's on my right. Now they are practically little girls and I am trying to make their toddler hood last.
