Milestone Alert!

Brianna tinkled in her potty for the first time tonight!  She is becoming such a big girl!  It's funny what you get excited about when you're a parent.  She celebrated by having a few Skittles.  I'm truly excited for Brianna... it just means she's on the right track.  Love her so much!

22-Months Old!

2/15/2012

22 Months Old! 

It's hard to imagine that your second birthday is only two months away... I can't wait to plan your party! 

This month you celebrated your second Valentine's Day!  You had a wonderful party with your friends at daycare.  You took little goody bags for everyone and a fruit tray.  At home you got a special Winnie the Pooh Pez from Grandma with a box of chocolates.  Mommy and Daddy gave you chocolates with several goodies and toys.  Daddy made spaghetti and strawberry cake - you loved both!  Spaghetti has recently become one of your favorite foods, along with pizza.  Also you have recently had decaf sweet tea and love it!  Now I know you're a true Southern Belle!

On February 4th, you celebrated Mya Madkins' second birthday party at JumpaPalooza.  You had a great time with all your friends from daycare.  Daddy took you on some of the really big slides and you even went on one by yourself!  You did a face plant when you went down one slide, but you thought that was hilarious!  You are my little dare devil!

You love to climb all over you daddy - he is your playground for sure.  You love to run and jump into his lap  and you pretty much do this every night.  You love to chase Lobo (or Bobo, as you call him) and let Lobo chase you.  And of course, you still love Benson and Slinky!

You like to watch Caillou, the Mickey Mouse Club and most recenlty have enjoyed watching the Curious George movie on my phone.  You will ask for it by name. 

There are a multitude of words that you can say now... I can't even count them all!  You can sing your ABCs, count to 10, recognize colors and you are learning to recognize your numbers and letters.  Your daycare teachers say you are the 'leader' in the class - you often demonstrate to the other children how to do or say something or sign a word in sign language.  You recently had an ear infection and could tell us your ear hurt - the doctor was very impressed.  I can already tell you will be successful - you have a smart head on your shoulders!
