I decided to do a Martha post since she turned two this month

When you make her tell her her age, she says two but puts up her hand like this:

1. I think I havent blogged about this yet - but I twitted it - Martha has been chot-chot free since May 1 (I threw it on my first day staying at home). I decided it was make or break, and I knew I was the only one who had the strength to say no to her (Her Dad kept on telling me that I wouldnt make it). But fortunately, we did. I did a meanie - I put chili sauce on her chot chot :). She cried, but afterwards wouldnt even touch it or go near it. She tried to tell me to “wash” it, because she saw it was “dirty” but Id just wash it kunwari and then give it back to her.

Oh, the torture. We had trouble with lulling her to sleep for a week, naptime, bedtime, everything was ruined. She cant find an alternative way to calm her so she kept crying, was cranky, all the things you can think of.

But we survived.
RIP Chot Chot.

2. Panties.

We have been wearing panties for almost all day since May too The first week I stayed home, I told her to tell me when she wants to make wiwi, and we were successful at the first try! (We have a small toilet bowl so I think she wasnt threatened). We were doing pretty good for the past two weeks but slacked the past couple of days (I got really busy and tamad).

She doesnt want to wear those white panties too. She wants those that are “pretty.”

3. I have already mentioned that her creative imagination is flying. She now plays with Elmo constantly. He even NEEDS to come with us everytime we go out. We left him at the Shrine when we went there two days ago and she bawled her eyes out. Needless to say, I had a hard time making her do the things that I want her to do (like lay down while I put her pampers on!!!!).

4. She discovered the joys of putting lipstick on! My sister used it to calm her down and now she makes kutkot my stuff to look for “ipshick”. (The ones I have are expired so I threw it all away. LOL)

This is her wearing ipshick.

5. She watched a Disney Princess Movie! YEY!! We started with Little Mermaid (the first movie I saw from them too) and save for a couple of Elmo timeouts (she wants to watch Elmo), we did fine. She now also has been displaying interest on her Disney Princesses book. AND she hates Belle. LOL.

6. Her morning routine:

7. Word Explosion.
Ever since Chot Chot went RIP, her vocabulary expanded. Granting she is still bulol, she now can utter one-word ramblings when pointing and around a three-word phrase when explaining. She sings quite understandably now too.

There is so much more but I cnt think straight. As always, the day starts with me being lazy and when the kids wake up, I realized I have a ton of things to be done.

Laters.
I keep telling that because maybe I will come back. Later. LOL
