Raleigh is 20 months old!

The weeks and months pass so quickly. In four months my baby will be 2 years old. How can that be possible? 

  • Likes:  bubble baths, reading books (It’s one of the first things she asks for in the morning.), Ring Around the Rosie (Ashes)
  • Dislikes: Lately she does not want to eat dinner in her own chair. She wimpers, cries, moans, and throws food and utensils on the floor in protest. Dinners have not been peaceful in our house.
  • Communication: Her favorite phrases are: “I did it!” “All done. Get down.” “No splashing, Bub.” “Help!” “Breakfast?” “Sorry, mommy (or Bub).” She has started hitting and pinching more often when she doesn’t get her way. Sometimes she is more willing to apologize than others.
  • Skills: She is singing a lot more these days, especially “Jingle Bells” (Bingle Bells). She likes to put things in the trash can. She also likes to get lots of tissues to wipe her nose. I have to put the Kleenex box where she can’t reach it. I keep offering the potty and she’s gone pee-pee twice. Mostly she likes to sit down (with or without clothes on) and then jump up real quick to look in the bowl.
  • So big!: Shirts and pants: 18 mos. Shoes: size 6 Diaper: size 3

Happy mirthday, sweet baby girl.
