Because Kristin hasn't blogged this yet, but I don't want the story lost

If she ever blogs this, I'll take my version down...

Last friday Kristin picked Julia up from daycare early. One of the little boys there had given Julia one of those gold-foil chocolate coins. Kristin meant to take it away from her, but she must have been hiding it, because Kristin didn't see it and thought Julia had dropped it.

They start driving to Costco. After a few moments Julia starts laughing maniacally. Kristin turns to look at her and is appalled to see that Julia is COVERED in melted chocolate! She had bitten through the gold foil and discovered the (nicely melted from being in her hand) chocolate within. By the time they got to Costco, Julia had chocolate in her hair, all over her clothes, and smeared on every square inch of exposed skin. She hadn't even eaten the foil -- just sucked it clean.

She's a maniac for chocolate.

Holy CRAP!

Yesterday Kristin was in Julia's room, putting away a bunch of clothes that we bought for her to wear next summer (great sale at The Children's Place!). Julia was playing in the living room. Suddenly Julia appears in the doorway to her room, crawling fast. She crawls up to her diaper stacker and pulls out a diaper. She crawls over to Kristin and pulls up and hands Kristin the diaper. Kristin checked Julia's diaper, and sure enough, it was poopie.

I think she'll be potty trained by the time she is two. What do you think?
