Here she comes...
Makenzie learned two new words with in the last couple of weeks. They are: Aggravated and Annoyed. She uses them in sentences now. Like for instance, when she pooped in her diaper this Morning she asked me "mommy are you agg-a-bated?" I said "yes, Makenzie, I am." She said "dat mean noid." It amazes me how smart she is. ; )
Makenzie is finally letting us know when she has to pee pee. She even woke me up in the middle of the night, last night, to go pee pee. She hasn't had an accident in over a week. Jared and I (as well as her grandparents) are VERY proud of her. We are all so thrilled that we do not have to purchase as many diapers anymore. We have not accomplished poo poo in the the potty but we are working on it. Makenzie does not like to go pee pee in her training potty, she has to go in the "big" potty. She has to kick her pants ALL THE WAY off as well. She will flush the toilet and say "bye-bye pee pee" but she will NOT put the lid down. She acts like she doesn't want to touch it. She is very particular about her potty sessions.
Makenzie is learning so much so fast. I feel, sometimes, that she is more on the level of a four year old rather than 2 1/2. Thursday January 1, 2009 we had dinner at Granny and Grandpa's like we do every year on the first. There were 13 stockings hung on the chimney and Makenzie went right up and found her stocking with no one telling or pointing her in the right direction. She recognized her name and went and picked it out. We were at Ledo's on Friday January 2, 2009 having lunch with Mandi and Bailey Krikstan. Makenzie leaned over to me and said "Mommy, you and me best friends". I thought it was SO sweet. She has no idea how much that means to me. We went to Sukura on Saturday night and she ate Sushi. She enjoyed it at Sukura very much. We met Autumn and Jessie there. It was very entertaining for Makenzie to watch the chef come out and cook right in front of us. Sunday I woke up with Strep throat and she has worked very hard in her kitchen cooking me meals and taking care of me. We still are having problems with potty training. She did come to us and tell us she had to pee on Thursday afternoon, but other than that we have had to stay on her or she will sneak an go in her pull up.
