Amelia’s “aunt” Lynn sent a fabulous gift…Hello Kitty lip balm. She loved it. This was her “Hooray He-wo Kitty Bistex” (Hooray Hello Kitty Blistex) in the driveway, after opening the mail.

She ended up eating most of it over a couple days and transferring tiny sparkles to her skin and mine. Sometimes she plays with the Hello Kitty cap as a finger puppet.

We had some brief interest in her potty, for about 5 days. She got out of her bath a couple times to go (and did) and asked to go potty several times a day. She hasn’t asked for two days, though.
She set up this view herself.

She is now asking us to change her diaper but she’s not ready for the big leap yet. She loves a book we bought her about going potty. We read it many times a day. The star of the book is Michael and she shakes her head back and forth while saying “No, no, no diapers for Michael, no, no diapers”.
Now she is enjoying flushing the toilets. I guess they all do this?

Play food, finally! What a bargain. 101 pieces of plastic food. She unloaded each piece onto her play kitchen. We have a bin she keeps it all on now and she cooks us meals like pretzel, watermelon, and icecream. We have frequent “wa’s dis?”es also, when she is asking what the pieces are…sometimes we can’t tell either!

Amelia learned what a boo-boo is. She fell three times in three days on the same knee. Different patches of ground. She likes her boo-boo bunny (bunny that holds an ice cube pack). The third time we went straight to the store for some Hello Kitty bandaids. She points to her knee and says “ya-ya’s boo-boo”.

Today she asked me to take a picture of her sleeping, to send to daddy.

We think she’s working on her first ’second molar’. We are all suffering a little from her getting up early. The other day I felt around her mouth and when I took my finger off the tooth that I think is coming in, she pulled my finger back for me to push on her gum.
