Lauren

Lauren is amazing! She finally decided she was going to be potty trained and guess what...she is. Now that it is her idea instead of ours she is having success. She has one issue which she seems to have a solution for. She thinks the bathroom stinks so she has to spray Lysol each time before she goes in or she gags. Silly girl. She has doubled her my little pony collection because of her efforts and seems to be very happy about it. Her swim teacher says she can definitely move up a level if she does any more session of swim lessons. She has such a hard time staying out of the water...restraining herself from jumping in because the other kids in the class our just getting used to the water. She has done well though and is liking it. She does almost everything herself. She gets dressed on her own, combs her hair, makes her bed and brushes her teeth. She is a great helper and loves to clean. She likes to vacuum the stairs and of course use pledge or Windex.....she loves to spray chemicals. When she wakes up in the morning she throws her baby over the upstairs rail just so we know she is on her way down. Yes, she still has baby and we are wondering how long she will last. She is not looking like she used to over two years ago when she got her from Mimi and Poppy. Lauren loves to dance. Her favorite song right now is "Our Song" by Taylor Swift. She loves to dress up in princess dresses and loves lip gloss. She puts on her "make ups" she got from Aunt Lindsay every morning. Aunt Lindsay actually saw her using the lip gloss she had and then quickly gave it to her as a gift. Aunt Lindsay just has this thing about germs. She is very loving and fun to be around. She has lots of energy and is very smart. She is learning so much from Landon. She is slow to warm up to people but wins them over with her amazing smile and her dimple. She is a shining star in our home. We love her so much!

It was a true gift... I really wanted to give it to her even before she used it! :)
