Monkey See, Monkey Do in Three Acts
Act 1.
I was putting Peanuts diapers away this afternoon. As usual, she would pull them out of the drawer and wonder off with them, but since i seemed to be staying ahead of her (i.e. more diapers were going in them coming out) I just kept doing what I was doing. Peanut was wondering throughout the house kinda keeping to herself. I was just about finished when a rather panic little girl came in, pulled a diaper out of the drawer, and ran off before I could think much about it.
I finished up what I was doing and went to look for her. When I walked into the hallway I found a giant puddle right next to the open bathroom door. There was a soaking wet diaper in the hallway and another somewhat wet one laying next to the toilet. I yelled for her. Her shirt was wet, but her hands didn't seem to be. I just hope to God she didn't put the diaper in her mouth. She seemed pretty distraught, but I think it was because she knew she was being naughty. I think she was trying to dump the "poop" out of her clean diapers into the toilet like I do with her soiled ones. She got it right though. All the right places on the diapers were wet.
Act 2.
When she got into the bath this evening, she lathered herself up with the bar soap. When i am in a hurry, i put her in the shower with me and we both clean up together.
Act 3.
She can say Beer and Ice Chest. I think she was copying what someone else was saying. Someone said something about Beer at a "training" I went to for work. She, of course, repeated "BEER". and tonight we said "night night" to the "ice chest", which is still in the middle of our floor from the weekend.

Beer? Yikes!
Now she can say beer, the next step is 'gin and tonic'. My niece is so advanced.
