Growing hair, peeing on the potty . . .

So Lynsey decided on Friday that she would pee on the potty! It was really funny - as you can see from one of the pictures below, I often pee with her in the vicinity and she's starting to pick up on what you have to do when on the pot:). So I thought, why not try to take her diaper off and see what she does. The very first time I ever sat her on the potty, and she peed. It was definitely a total fluke, because she suddenly stood up and turned around to look and see what had just happened! I've tried since and nothing, so I'm fairly certain she's not ready for big girl underwear just yet!

Her hair is growing so much and it's making her look so much older! More like a little girl than a baby! I actually got a clip into it the other day and it stayed in for like 10 minutes! Very cute:). As you can see from some of the pictures, she has some very dry skin around her mouth area which I am trying to combat with some Glaxal Base lotion. She's had it on and off for months now - I'm hoping that it will go away in the summer when the air isn't so dry.

Things have been pretty quiet around here without any big developments. I am enjoying my volleyball and Brian is enjoying his basketball. I started reading the Twilight series last week and am totally addicted - thank goodness Amazon was able to deliver books 2, 3 and 4 in a timely manner! I ordered them on Thursday night and they were in my mailbox Monday afternoon. Impressive! Lynsey is continuing to make us smile by all the crazy things she does. Today in the pool, she was constantly falling face first into the water and loving it! She is NOT her mother's daughter apparently, as I was scared of water my whole life, until Brian so bravely took on teaching me to swim some five years ago. I sat her on the edge of the pool and she laughed at me as splashed me with her feet - it was pretty funny! Some days I think I'm going crazy, but thank goodness for good weather allowing me to once again get Lynsey out in the stroller for walks. I don't know what I would do without that distraction some days.
