Lorelai and mama went out to Lowe's today to make "a project." Lorelai knew we were going so she got up as early as she could, she was so excited. We made a mister truck by hammering in lots of nails and putting on stickers.

Lorelai played dress ups for most of the afternoon today. This dress sings Let it Go when you press and button and lights up. It makes for an interesting nap time for Lex.

Lex is always so interested in what big sister is doing. He can almost sit up alone and uses that skill constantly to get a better look at Lorelai.

Lorelai was playing in her toy room today and accidentally broke a stretchy robot toy. Lorelai came in the back room and declared "sad faces. Whomp wooaaahh."
Daddy cracked up for at least five minutes and called Mama at work to leave a message sharing the event. That's one for the memory books.

For the past few days, Lorelai has been piling all of her toys into her backpack to the point that she cannot close the zipper herself. She drags the bag around and tries her best to carry it on her back but it is very difficult to balance.

Today Mama had a few questions for Lorelai.
Mama: Lorelai, what do you want to be when you grow up?
Lorelai: Santa! (Answered with no hesitation.)
Mama: What does Lex want to be when he grows up?
Lorelai: (Considers for a moment) a monster.
Lorelai: Can you be a dinosaur, mom?

Mama had been promising Lorelai that they would play a game in the TV now that she can use the Wii remote in Nexflix all by herself. Today we played MySims. Mama was the pointer remote and Lorelai worked the nunchuck which makes the character walk forward. Lorelai especially loved having Two (the character she created in the town she named Dare) walk in the river and pond.

Today in Potty Training Tales, Lorelai discovered she loves Peepsters, dark chocolate covered marshmallow candies.   She pooped at least four times (little nuggets) in the potty because she really wanted more Peepsters in her tummy. Daddy thinks that she would poop then get so excited that her little buns would clench together and she wouldn't get it all out in one visit. It sounds gross but is really adorable.

Tonight's pooping prize is Pillow from LaLaLoopsy. Lorelai has been obsessing over one of their movies on Netflix and Pillow, a little girl with footie pajamas and a pet sheep, is featured heavily. Lorelai can get behind a girl like that.

We went to visit Nana and Pop pop today. Lorelai was excited all day to tell them that Lorelai gets herself dressed now. She picks out her whole outfit and puts it on without help, socks included!

Potty training continues and now Lorelai gets a prize from her Pooping Prize Box when she poops in the potty. She takes a long time looking over all of her options.

Lorelai received a card from Gigi today for Valentine's day. She is very excited to have money for her pig upstairs. A few times recently, Daddy has come into Lorelai's room and noticed the piggy bank in her bed with her. She must have gotten up just after being tucked in to put the pig in bed with her to cuddle.

Happy birthday, Daddy!!
Daddy loved the gifts Lorelai bought him! She was a very enthusiastic "observer" while Daddy built his Lego toy. She kept wanting to be very helpful.

Lorelai and Mama went shopping for Daddy's birthday present today. Lorelai was pretty insistent that he wanted a LalaLoopsy doll or Shopkins-- we settled on a Lego set with Emmett from The Lego Movie and a Batman shirt with Velcro cape- same-same.

Lorelai started wearing sweaters and sweatshirts recently. This one is a particular favorite-- it has a hood, pockets, and a zipper. These are a few of Lorelai's favorite things.

Some of Daddy's family came up to Gigi's house for a visit. We walked to Bob's for cheesesteaks before every had to head out. Lorelai was delighted to have time to see Gavin, Mikey, and new baby Pierce.

Without even being told about the amazing creme centers, Lorelai's dessert-sixth-sense kicked in without missing a beat. She doesn't know about dunking cookies in milk just yet. That will blow her mind.

Lorelai sat down tonight after dinner with her guitar and started singing her version of "All About The Bass" by Megan Trainer . It was adorable- we were able to catch it on video too!

Lorelai has been teaching her brother about moving around on the floor and different toys they can use together. As Lex is getting more interactive, you can see Lorelai getting more excited.

Super Bowl 49 party at Gigi's house- Pop pop is on an airplane for work but we couldn't miss the tradition. There were fun snack all around, lots of cheese. Lorelai got to place some prop bets too- she beat Gigi in correct guesses!
