Cayleigh has used the potty a few times and Jeff and I are very proud of our baby girl. :) She's 17 months and she tells us when she's wet or worse (hee hee) so we thought it was time to try and teach her how to use the potty. There are 3 pictures of her on the potty but she never did go on it. She prefers to be up on the toilet like her brother and that is where she's had success. :) We took the first picture right after she went and she was so proud. Jeff asked her to smile for the camera and that's what she did! She is so cute. Today when I had an appointment with my doctor Cayleigh walked over and quietly said, "Mama, poo poo". I asked her if she needed to be changed and she said, "Uh huh" in her sweet little voice. And she was right- she did need a change.
Her vocabulary is expanding daily. Cayleigh LOVES to eat and she can say cookie, fry, eye-keem (icecream), cacker (cracker), bup (cup), milk, juice, apple, nana (banana), snack... and the list goes on. She knows lots of animals- horsie, cow, doggie, kittie, fish, turtle, goat, duck, chickie, bunny, sheep... She can say, "Hi, Mommy!" and "Hi, Daddy!", and she knows "Caden" and "Cayleigh" and "sorry" (she says this a lot after a time-out in her crib when she nearly kills herself on the couch or hits things/people. She can say "baby", "talk", "bye bye", "phone", "car", "truck", "bus", "bike", "choo choo", "boat", "moon", "star", "open", and the list goes on and on. I like to write down what she knows at certain ages so I can keep them in my memory. We love our kids and thank God for them every day. It's a tremendous gift being able to watch them grow and learn.
