No! Lainey Do It!

This phrase is heard frequently through out the day!  Lainey, unlike Erik, is super independent and wants to do everything she possibly can on her own.  It leads to some fairly humorous results. 

Here is a list of things she likes to do on her own.  Most of these things Erik didn't start tackling until he was three or later....

1- Getting undressed
2- Getting dressed
3- Shoes on/off

She was proud! She can get her regular pair of shoes on independently as well!

4- Brushing teeth
5- Taking herself to the bathroom independently (using the regular toliet)
6-Washing her hands
7-Getting into the fridge
8-Pouring herself a glass of milk
9-Climbing on counters
10-Changing her brother's diaper

Lainey changing Carson's diaper; Erik drilling Carson's head; Carson just laying there patiently!

11-"Riding" a trike - she can't reach the pedals so just runs it with her feet
12-Picking out clothes, or more particularly pajamas
13- Asking WHY?  Ha!

There are others but these are the most frequent things that come up.  I love her streak of independence and hope she will remain confident and self sufficient throughout her life!
