Lilly...in her birthday suit

Don't worry there will be no photos for this post...

Lilly has recently discovered the newfound freedom of being...well...being in the buff.
We have progressed to pullups instead of diapers (see previous post). Nobody get excited here...she still calls them diapers and uses them like diapers...she just discovered that they are pink and have the disney princesses on them so they had to get into our grocery cart.

Back to the story...she has discovered how to pull them up and down (hence the name I suppose). She has also discovered how to pull off her pants and shirt. I had to chase her no fewer than three times yesterday to inform her that we would not be running around naked all day. Noah once called from the playroom, "Mom, Lillly is naked AGAIN. Would you please come put her diaper on before she poops on all my stuff?"

This morning I was in the bedroom when she runs in stark naked and informs me, "Mommy I peed in my diapers yesternight." (This part was incredibly funny to me because she has made up the word "yesternight" on her own...as opposed to something being yesterday I suppose. Pretty clever if you ask me...

I really think this girl must be all about comfort. She had taken to want to stay in her jammies all day. I mean she would change out of her pajamas she slept in, and right into another comfy pair. However, I think she has decided that naked is more comfy than clothing all together. So dear friends if you pass my house and see that I have a naked child running around the yard, don't be alarmed...I just haven't caught her yet to make her cover up yet again...

PS Perhaps the potty training isn't as untimely as I thought? She did get out of her bathtub yesterday while I was gathering her towel, park herself in front of the toilet and proceed to poop in the floor. Nice! She then made me come look at what she had done. I wasn't sure if I was supposed to praise her for this or not...so I just tried to explain that it belonged in the potty instead of the floor. She just looked at me blankly and proceeded to drip bathwater on the floor. I proceeded to not fall in said bathwater....

I like the new word--yesternight! Yeah well I'm about the same place you are with the potty training...NOWHERE! I've heard they will when they are ready....I'm not sure Maggie will ever be ready!

I laughed out loud at "yesternight!" How funny! Sounds like you've got your hands full, but something tells me you wouldn't trade a second of it for the world! I hope one of these days soon I can be posting about my kids running around in the buff and making up words!! Love you guys!

Leave it to Noah to get right to the heart of the matter. Lilly's exhibitionism is not the issue, it's the pooping on his stuff thing that is the real problem. And another little sister on the way. Bless his heart.
