Like JJ

Lately Sarah has been verbalizing how she wants to do things like JJ.  She has been quite successful attempting big girl (mostly climbing) things like JJ. She climbs in the car to her seat. She climbs up the stairs. She climbs into her dinner chair. She sits on her knees during dinner (this is not allowed for either of them). She puts lotion on. She applies chapsticks.

We had been telling Sarah that she'd get to wear underwear when she chose to go to the bathroom on the toilet all the time. Tonight, Sarah said she wanted to wear underwear like JJ.  I let her wear underwear and told her that it was just for storytime before bed and then I would change her into a night-night diaper. Within 2 minutes she announced, "I peed my pants like JJ." I had to control myself from showing too much of the humor I found in this situation. I did not realize Sarah meant really wear the underwear like JJ, I thought Sarah just meant wear underwear.
