Hat trick

Ami: When we were out visiting friends today, I figured out how to take off my hat. Here is the conversation that ensued.

Mommy: Ami took off his hat!
Eliana: Why?
Mommy: Because babies like to take off their hats. When you were a baby you liked to take off your hat.
Eliana: I a baby now. [takes off her hat]

Two years later....

and Coby's ears still don't come off. I'm not quite as persistent as my sister was, though.

Sleep training, take 2

Ami: Mommy says it's time I learned to STTN (sleep through the night). See Eliana's post on the same subject.

Mommy is trying to Ferberize me. I don't like the sound of that. For now she's just trying to teach me to get to sleep on my own, without being "potched" (patted on the tush). If I cave in to that it can only get worse, so I'd better not fall for any of her tricks.
