2 years + 5 months


Well my beautiful girl, i cannot believe that you are one month away from being 2 1/2! Where did the time go. You are continuing to grow and change each and every day..

You are a non stop chatter box these days and you like to mimic or repeat lots of things you hear us say. My favorite one recently is we were outside and teh cat was whining in the sunroom because she wanted to join us out side and you say with the most perfect inflection in your voice "Oh STOP it Kiki" I know daddy and I have both said this and I about fell out of my chair when I heard you say it. The other funny phrase you have said recently is you almost fall or whatever and you will wipe your hand across your forehead and day "phew, that was close!"

You have very good manners and you use them all the time, even when you may not have a choice in teh matter. When you don't want to do something or don't want something you always say "No thank you". When you toot or burp you will say "excuse me, good manners" so adorable!!

You love to play with water, the water table, or a bucket of it you don't care. You love to pour it out of the watering can and into a cup and love to serve mommy and daddy. You will say "what do you want guys?"

You often sing to yourself or hum when you are doing something or riding in the car. You sing the whole twinkle twinkle song as well as your abc's. You know both songs perfectly and it is so sweet to hear it in your voice. Lately you have been singing a lot of eyi eyi oh, super cute.

The biggest development in the last month is you have started using teh potty!!!!!! Who knew i just had to get a stand alone potty seat instead of the one that fit on the toilet. You call it "drippins" when you pee just a little on the potty. You get so proud of yourself you have to stand up quick and look at hte pee pee and then you say "I did it!" You aren't going everytime I ask you , sometimes you say no thank you but you are going more and more. Just 2 nights ago before your bath you say "mommy potty, potty mommy" so i went running took off your diaper and you went!! First time you ever asked to go without me asking. You still won't poop on teh potty you prefer your diaper and a quiet corner or space to do your business but we are making huge progress!!!! I think mommy will be shopping soon for some big girl underwear!!!!

I love watching all the fun things you do everyday, and love that we can start having more and more "conversations" I love you big girl!!!
