Liar, Liar, Shoes on Fire

So it's been an embarrassingly long time since I've posted, but that's because I've been busy working and wifing and parenting.

There have been some changes since my last post. The Chimp has started walking in earnest now, though she still seems to prefer crawling, since it's still the quickest way for her to get around. God bless her, she waited until the March Break when her dad and I would be home with her to do it. No, we didn't catch it on camera, but we were both there to see it.

She's also developed a (strange) preference for using the toilet. I don't know a lot of kids who started using the toilet before the age of 2 (she's 14 months old now) although I know it's not unusual, it still seems a bit odd to me. She won't ask for it, but she's much more likely to go if she's sitting on it - and I have to admit, it's a much tidier clean-up afterward.

She's also talking quite a bit more than she was before, although she doesn't always tell the truth as you can see in the video.




All in all, we're making good progress around here. We've settled into a schedule and the kids are both doing fine. Spring is starting to spring around here and I could not be more excited about it. It's going to be great when we can start heading out of the house together again as a family!
