My Little Smartypants!

I figured it was about time for a new post so here it is folks! I'll post the most recent stuff now and in a day or two, I'll post a bunch of pictures of our trip to Saskatchewan. For now, I'm going to brag. I have SUCH a smart kid! She is constantly surprising us!
On Saturday she was reading her Dora book(repeating the part she has memorized) to her baby. She got to the page where you're supposed to count the birds and quickly showed her baby how. No big deal right! She can already count to 14. They excitement is that she counted all 5 birds IN SPANISH!!!! That's right! My 2 1/2 year old is bilingual! Then I asked her how the animals ask for help on Diego and she told me they say, "ayuda me"!!! What a little smartie!
To continue with the bragging, she surprised us with this last night! I took the video today. Just a little note, she can actually do it without any prompting or hints too. It was just right before naptime, so she was a little bit restless!
ENJOY!!!


She is also completely potty trained! When she has to go, she stops what ever she is doing and runs to the bathroom! At least half the time she doesn't even tell you she's going! You only know she went because a) she pooped and calls you to come wipe her bum or b)she only peed and proceeded to dump the contents into the toilet and flush! Only after that will she come and say "I went pee Mommy! I'm so proud of me!!" Man I love her!
She now knows how to change diapers! Whenever I offer to help I am met with a "No! That's my job Mommy!" This should come in handy when the next little Frenchie eventually comes along. (And no, I'm not hinting at anything other than the fact that we eventually want another. If that wasn't clear enough for you all, I'm NOT pregnant!)
I know there's a bunch more, including where various family members live(her Grandmas and Grandpas, Aunties and Uncles, us, Ethan and Connor, Auntie Mitz, Auntie Margaret, and where "Big Amma" is visiting!)
Now I'm starting to get really prideful, so lest I sin anymore, I better end this post!

That is adorable. I am very proud of her too. I love how she says Q after Daxter kisses her.
I miss her even more now, but thanks anyway.

Margaret said...

Hey, Sue. We commented at the same time.

I guess there are some things we can do together.

I just watched the video for the 6th time since I commented. Just can't get enough of her.

Oh, she is so adorable! She is very smart. I like when she's hugging Daxter, it's so nice to see how good he is with her.
