Sometimes when we take Lauren's diaper off, we tell her "You're free!" She clearly gets the concept. Today when I laid her down for a change and the air hit her, she proudly announced "free!" It was our small feat for the day.
Later in the day Liz and I were having some conversation about hair-something-or-other, when we looked over to find that Lauren had taken the cue to reach and touch hers. She's also learned the color "purple" (but no others) and we're clueless how that happened. We've decided our little brainiac is on her way to curing cancer or something, thought I'm sure we'll have to come back to reality just as soon as she starts to pick her nose and get her head caught between the stair balusters.

I love Lauren's rare moments of genius, but I also love the everyday reality...like when she falls head first into her toy box or when you lay a sock on the top of her head and she can't reach it and after a few tries gives up and goes on playing like it's not even there :)
I have to say that you do have a little genius. I can't believe she is talking and saying so many words. And even Sophie at 2 is just starting to learn her colors! She may have more fun playing with Sophie than with Zoe in May!
"Purple" was Ethan's first color word, too! Weird...
