Miss Independent

Olivia has become very independent these days. Just last week, she started taking her own shower. She wet herself with the shower head, put soap on her body and rinsed it off. She refused to let me help do her back and would try the hardest to do it herself. In fact, she insisted on doing everything herself, from getting out of the bath to drying herself with the towel.

In fact, I made the ‘mistake’ of drying her back and she threw a fit, crying and insisting I put water back on her back…..

After drying herself, she would put her pajamas on by herself. In the morning, she would dress herself with the outfit that I had laid out. Thank god she has YET to insist on choosing her own outfit.

Most people would say this is good, right….Well, yes, it is great that she is so independent but that also means she is growing up….TOO FAST! She is my baby……she is only 3 but acting like 13!

I wonder if this is a trait of a firstborn and an only child…..

Cute Conversation

One night, Olivia saw me cleaning the toilet bowl. She asked me “Cleaning the toilet?” I said “Yes, cos daddy made a mess”…..hehe.

A while later, when she was going pee pee in the toilet, this was our exchanged.

Olivia: Daddy made a mess?

Me: Yes, men always make a mess.

Olivia: And you clean it up?

Me: No, ask the men to clean it up!

Olivia: And the men say No.
