Reagan and Kyleigh - July 2014

Here are my notes (a lot of them!) from this month:

Reagan:
  • First night of wearing "big boy pants" overnight was 3rd into 4th and he was dry the next morning!
  • Very bossy; tells Kyleigh what to do
  • Improved pedaling on his tricycle (early month)
  • Rides tricycle very well (end of month)
  • Pooping his pants again (see previous post) - possibly jealous of Kyleigh's success at potty training
  • Picked up Kyleigh's poop and brought it upstairs to me (cupped in his hands)
  • Pooped behind a tree at Kilmer School
  • Had his first sugary cereal and LOVED it (Golden Grahams)
  • Had his first cavity filled and it did not go well :(
  • Tells people about everything - from mice in the basement to his hospital stay in January
  • Started talking back to us and giving us attitude
  • His mind moves faster than his mouth - ends up saying "and then" 10x before he can finish the sentence
  • Often talks about "when I'm a grown up..."
  • I love listening to Reagan recap the day for Ryan - it's always interesting to see what he remembers and what he decides to tell Ryan
  • Sometimes really sweet with Kyleigh; at church he saved his last veggie straw because he wanted to give it to Kyleigh
  • Still saying "Saturway" instead of "Saturday" Can say all other days of the week just fine
  • Favorite movie (end of month) is Blue Mountain Mystery DAILY! Recounts the story and repeats word for word sections of the movie
Kyleigh:
  • Obsessed with telling me how to drive. "Go" "Red light, green light"
  • Can now open doors around the house - oh boy!
  • Insists on removing all clothing, including underwear, from waist down to use the potty
  • "No, it's called a mooooooootorcycle"
  • Loves nail polish and asks to see it on any woman. Also touches strangers' toes if she sees it
  • Talks about people's eyebrows constantly
  • Trying to "read" books on her own
  • After 3 weeks, she will now use the toilet and doesn't need the insert
  • Makes a statement and when you acknowledge or repeat what she said, she responds with "no, it's a ____________"
  • Delay tactics at the table; won't eat and then says she's all done and when we take her plate or milk away, she wants it back
  • Rarely gallops anymore; mostly runs everywhere
  • Takes her pull up (or underwear) off when she poops BEFORE telling us
  • Really good at saying "thanks, mom" after I give her something
  • Yells "Scout, dinner time" every night after filling the cat bowls
