diedre pooped on the potty last thursday night. she has not peed on it really yet, but once in awhile we let her run around diaperless to see how she does.
she is very aware of her body functions now and says "poo" whenever she has pooped in her diaper so i know when to change her--very helpful :) (although it sounds more like "pee" because somewhere along the line she stopped saying "oo" and started saying "ee", like "peek a bee" instead of "peek a boo").
diedre's language is developing really well. she says "up" which means "in, out, up, down, on, off, help" but we just say the correct word and she repeats it. she does use "down" appropriately when playing "ring around the rosey."
i'm really trying to get her out of the habit of going "mmmm" and leaning forward whenever she wants what you have, and to say the word instead, like "apple" or "food" or something other than "mmmm" because i know she can do it.
she also did all the actions to "the wheels on the bus" last week which was very exciting for me. its so cool to see things click for her. she is 17 months now, almost 18 (a year and a half--crazy!!!). she loves dancing (her third cousins in Ontario taught her to spin around and ballerina dance) and she is very helpful with cleaning and tidying up.
we think she's awesome :D
