The picture of Frankie on the tricycle is a little misleading. She can't quite ride it yet but she does try. Her legs aren't quite long enough. However, she is really attached to the tricycle and wants to get on it. When her brother tries to ride it (who's almost too big) she gets jealous and cries and pushes him off.
Frankie knows tons of words now and even short sentences. She said "put coat on" the other day. She knows how to say most of the foods that she eats and a few animals, although most animals with four legs get called "cat", probably because we have two cats. She of course knows "Elmo",what kid doesn't? and a few animal sounds too.
Frankie also puts her own shoes on already! and her own socks and pants. About the only thing she doesn't do is her top and her own diaper. That will be a nice day. Trying to start potty training but so far the actual potty part isn't happening. But she likes sitting on it, probably because it's Elmo and says things when you hit his hand.
That's all I can think of for now.
