Sarah Kate has experienced a lot of snow as a 21 month old! She loves, loves, loves her brown snow boots. But she is not a fan of walking in the snow, so they haven't gotten much use. She has learned to call all of her grandparents by their grandparent-related names (Nana, Granddad, Grandma, Grandpa). She is also speaking in sentences! Well, mostly just one sentence. "I wanna . . . " I wanna cookie. I wanna drink (ga-ga). I wanna see. I wanna go. I wanna eat.
Sarah Kate has also used the potty! But just once. At mother's day out. Her teacher told me that they checked her diaper a couple of times, and she was dry. And then another child in the class was using the potty, and Sarah Kate said she wanted to go potty. (I wanna potty.) So they put her on the potty, and she peed! I was ecstatic, thinking it couldn't be this easy. (It wasn't.) I pulled out the little plastic potty, cleaned it up, and put it in the kids' bathroom. Sarah Kate will say "I wanna potty," but she doesn't want anything to do with actually sitting on the potty. Oh, well--it was a good start!
Sarah Kate's teacher also told me another funny story about our sweet daughter. Apparently, there is a chair in the play area of the room that serves as Sarah Kate's throne. She sits in the chair, and the other kids bring her toys. If someone else is sitting in the chair and Sarah Kate moves in that direction, the other child will get up and let Sarah Kate sit there. The teacher said she isn't mean or rude about it, that's just how it is. So I guess Sarah Kate is the queen bee of the toddler room. It's too bad--no one around here is making her share her toys with them, so I was hoping she was learning some sharing at mother's day out!
Here's some video Noel caught on the video monitor of Sarah Kate when she was supposedly napping. She's a fun little girl!
