21 Months

This post is late!  I have had the pictures uploaded for about 2 weeks now but just haven't had time to sit and write.

-You weigh 24.4 lbs (34%)

-You are 33.2 inches long (63%)

-You are still in a size 3 diaper

-In a size 4 shoe (finally!)

-You are still a great sleeper.  The only times you wake up are when you are cutting teeth, which I can only imagine hurt!

-Still loving swim!  My goal is to have you in Minnows (which is the next class up, where mommy just observes) by the Fall.  I think you'll be ready in 5 months, I hope!

-You are still loving school, your teachers say you know all of your colors, but if we ask you at home you just point and say something.  So I'm guessing you'll tell us on your own time :)

-You are just the funniest little kid.  You will get shy around certain people and then others you just talk and talk and show-off.  

-We may be biased but we think you are pretty smart.  You know lots of animals and their sounds, you know where all of your toys go.  You will read a book once or twice and have most of the pages memorized and know what's coming on the next page.

-You know the remote will work the TV and you bring it to us and say "bup bup, pupies" that means you want to watch Bubble Guppies, we have 30 recorded, its your favorite!

-When you are playing on your own you will pick up puzzle pieces or toys and say "1, 2, 3, 4, ALL DONE!"  Sometimes you'll count all the way to 10.

-You sing ALL the time!  You are currently loving "Wheels on the Bus" "No more monkey's jumping on the bed" "Twinkle Twinkle" "Bitsy" (Itsy Bitsy Spider) "Deep and Wide"

-You love to get the scale in our bathroom and weigh yourself

-You love to play "Elmo" and "Farm" on the iPad.  You also like to watch Mickey Mouse Clubhouse as well.

-You went to a Valentine's Tea Party with your friends and made a wand.  

-You gave out Valentine's to your friends at school.

-You are getting finicky with your food.  You will eat meat (chicken, turkey, hot dogs, etc) every couple of days.  But you'll eat fruit and applesauce like it's going out of style!

-You know several body parts.  Head, eyes, ears, hair, nose, teeth, tongue, lips, cheek, chin, elbow, tummy, fingers, toes and booty.

-You are actually starting to put sentences together.  You'll say things like: 

"I get you!" 

"I keen up" 

 "Help me pease"

 "Oh, no! Happen?"

 If you bonk your head or 'get hurt' you will touch where it hurts and say "Op, bonk!" 

"I sawy"(I sorry)

"Sit pease" (this is when you want us to come play with you)

"Paci pease"

"cos me" (excuse me)

"I jump"

"Oh my bow!"

"Oh no!" (when you dump your blocks or puzzle)

I really feel like this month you starting talking more and more.  You are really growing up into a little person :)  We love you to pieces!!
