PT Update
So our potty training boot camp wasn't a huge success. Going to take it easy and try another boot camp in 2 months. Our cloth diapers have basically fallen apart and are too small, which was why I'm so motivated to get this done. I'm pretty cranky to have to spend money on disposables again. Yuck! Here's hoping that Part 2 of PT Boot camp is more successful!

Crafty Crafts
Play foam rulez!My plan is to make a bunch of shapes and people for bath time learning fun!
Look at this totally awesome flower I made with Play-Doh!
I'm pretty impressed with myself right now. lol.
Potty Training 3-day Boot Camp!
I covered the rugs with vinyl tablecloths, bought an extra potty chair, and stocked up on summer dresses (no pants in the house for 3 months!). Day 1 was a learning day pretty much, today we're totally going to rule the potty! Rahhrr!

18 month UPDATE!
I haven't done an update in a LONG time, so here you go!
At her 18 month checkup Saoirse weighed 25 pounds and was 31 inches! Pretty close to average!
Words so far:
Mama
Dada
Shi-Shi (Aunt Sissy)
Nayna (Ilena)
Dora (the Explorer)
HoHo (monkey from Ni Hao Kai Lan)
Map (Dora the Explorer)
Dog
Kitty
Moon
No
Bubbles
Eye
Nose
Mouth
Bear
Baby
Swing (sounds like "wheeee")
Bye
Hi
Banana (nana)
More
Door
Book
Slide
She can also do some animal noises:
Tiger/Lion/Bear (Rooooaaaaar!)
Cat
Dog
Monkey
Gorilla
Owl
Elephant
Cow
Snake
Her most favorite activities lately have been the swing, slides, exploring outside, and bubbles, and of course her books. She loves her blocks as well, but mostly likes for a grown up to build something for her so she can knock it down and fling blocks everywhere. lol. :)
And I have to admit, She is kind of a TV addict i think. It started off small, but I fear I've created a monster...a tiny TV monster who runs around with the remote shouting "DORA!!" at me. lol. Before she could speak, she would just wave, which was her sign for "Ni Hao, Kai Lan," her other favorite show. So it's a constant battle to distract her from the TV basically. fun!
Maybe to make up for it, she's basically a self imposed vegetarian who will eat only fruit, veggies, cottage cheese, cheese, yogurt, oatmeal, veggie burgers and pasta. ok i lied, she will eat a smidge of chicken every once in a while, but rarely.
So overall we're doing great! She's sleeping great, still in our bed, is still breastfeeding like a champ and seems to be showing signs of potty training readiness (crosses fingers). So I guess we'll be attempting potty training soon, I'm sure I'll have a lot to blog about here in a week or two. :D
