Platypus Antics

After passing the 2 year mark in January, Thiea is...

shy around strangers.

asking to have a pony in her hair each morning (just like Xandra). She also whines, complains and flails around as I put it in (whether there are tangles or not).

Has been asking at bedtime and naptime each day if she can wear big girl panties. We've started putting training pants and "bloomers (plastic pants)" on her at nap and she's had some success, some peed in pants but no messy bed, and some bedding changes due to excessive peeing.

a parrot of Xandra. She says nearly everything Xandra says, whether she understands in or not. Some of my favorites have been poocons (coupons), Heaven's name (What is Heaven's name?), and Where daddy go?, and Whyyyyyy?

really likes to take toys from others. She's quick to apologize, but will not return the toy without Joe or I intervening.

eats two meals a day and sometimes only one.

fascinated with pockets. She loves when her clothes have pockets and she stuffs them full of little objects. She also likes to fish around in my pockets when I'm not paying attention.

loving finding Xandra's chapstick and eating as much of it as she can until she gets caught.

enjoying any chance to read books, with or without a lap.

knows when we're at Sam's Club. Last week we pulled in and she exclaimed, "Sam's Club, Nancy, Beff." Nancy and Beth are friends that often meet us at Sam's Club. She knows that usually when we pull in, she will see them.

almost able to get up on the potty by herself. Most days she just needs an adult for balancing purposes.

singing a lot: Jesus loves me, ABCDFG, Ouch IJK..., Happy Birthday to Theia, etc.

mischievous, cuddly, and loves to rough house with daddy.
