I am so impressed with Kaelah in the last few weeks. She seems to be growing up so fast all of a sudden. On May 11th she began going pee in the potty & now she has been completely accident free for a couple weeks (including using the toilet at the park & the mall). I didn't want to mention it sooner b/c I was afraid of jinxing it. And I wouldn't exactly say she is fully potty trained either... Kaelah requests a diaper whenever it is time to poop. Hey, that only happens once a day so I don't mind! We are so proud of her. I do feel a bit guilty, though. Right before she began using the potty on a regular basis, I had almost broken down & cried one day b/c I had changed soooo many diapers already that day. "Why don't you use the potty, Kaelah? I know you can do it & just choose not to." I didn't really expect her to listen to me... I was just having one of those almost-break down moments. I guess pure & raw emotion was the trick, but I certainly didn't intend it to be.
Kaelah is also a fantastic big sister to Michelle. Our belle is at the age where she loves to play now. Her favorite is when you move her legs for her & sing "I Think We're Alone Now." And as evidenced by the above video, she likes it when Kaelah plays Pat-a-Cake with her too. Kaelah is a genius with it comes to learning anything with a rhythm or a tune. She's our singer/dancer extraordinaire. Here's a video of her dancing to the song she wants Dan & I to memorize & then perform like in the movie High School Musical 3. She's only seen the movie once, but we've played the corresponding scene plenty of times while doing her hair in the morning.
