Hi T&B!
Tornado Tot is my Mother's affectionate nickname for Courtey. Since I last posted about her, she's been the perfect model of acute angelness and even dressed up as an Angel for Halloween! Don't know what's prompted this change in behaviour - but, boy, am I glad about it. We can now get through an entire (home) dinner without food being thrown, serving her UNDER the table, racing round the room, or a screaming fit happening. No medical reason for this behaviour - paediatrician (a guy!) says it's just the Terrible Twos. She's not 3 for a while, but we're keeping our fingers crossed the bridge has been crossed behaviour-wise.
Her vocabulary for a 2 year old is spectacular and she's never baby talked - but I was astounded when I heard her say that she didn't like the witch at the Halloween Party as "she's overdone the makeup - it looked a bit too green in this light"!!!
Eilidh (other sister) and I are off to WDW on Thursday (I'm posting from the UK and it's 7.20pm here now). A bit of a panic on as I'm working right up to the wire and my boss has jokingly (I think) asked if I'm taking my laptop with me. The answer is of course NO, but he's just remembered I'm off for 3.5 weeks (not 1 this time) and I think he's starting to panic. Well, too late to worry about it now - holiday's been booked since September 03!
Sorry I'll miss you - we could have swapped horror stories. With a bit of luck though, I won't have one to tell you all about when I get back.
On the countdown now - Splash Mountain, here I come!
