While the kids were taking a bath, Carysse continued to pour water on herself and Christian. As she did this, she would say, "Wash Christian back, wash Christian arm, wash Carysse leg, wash Carysse feet", and so forth. Then I heard her say, "Wash Carysse piggies." I looked up and said, "Piggies?" She looked at me with a look on her face like, "Don't you know what my piggies are!" I then asked, "Where are your piggies, Carysse?" Without any hesitation, she pointed to her toes. I then said, "Those are your piggies?" She confidently nodded her head.
As you can tell, I have sung one too many nursery rhymes to my kids. "This Little Piggy" was one of Carysse's favorites; now my 2 yr old thinks her toes are called piggies. Looks like we'll have a lesson on body parts tomorrow :-).

That is the cutest/sweetest thing I have ever heard! :)
Or it might be the 2-year-old version of a joke. I hope you laughed.
Caryn, that's actually what most little kids call their toes. And, it does come from the nursery rhyme. Well, I don't think that's not proven or anything, but in my professional opinion...
oh I wish I'd proofread better. "I don't think that's proven..." There should be no "not" in that sentence.
I love piggie toes on baby feet! And she sure has some CUTE piggies! Adorable pic!
So very cute!
