22 Months Old

Happy 22 months to this cutie pie!!  Girlfriend, I cannot believe you are 2 months away from turning 2 years old!!  Hard to believe.

You are the busiest little girl!  You are so independent outside the home.  Shopping, walking anywhere, parks.  But at home, you are attached to me like a leech.  You are rarely in a separate room from me.  Only way I can get away is letting you play on the Kindle...aka, peppa.  Mommy has to do what she has to do!

You FINALLY learned how to climb onto the couch without assistance.  You love jumping on the couch, chair, bed, crib.  

You had a big month of moving into your new house.  You finally adjusted and say, "home" when we pull into the driveway.

You still love swinging, balls, bubbles, riding your push car and being outside.  One of your new favorite things is playing in the front seat of the car.

You won't lay down to take a nap.  Mommy has to drive you in order to get you to sleep.  You nap for only an hour.  Once in a blue moon you'll go longer.  

Your not big to eating lunch and dinner.  Thankfully, you do eat breakfast.  We mostly snack throughout the day.  Your beverage of choice is still water.  Such a good girl and you absolutely love apples.  That is definitely our favorite fruit right now.

Your favorite song is "If Your Happy and You Know It."  Absolutely melts my heart watching you clap your hands, dance around and say, "Hooray!"  

You know how to throw a good tantrum.  There have been many times we leave a store with you kicking and screaming.  Mommy has to carry you out like a sack of potatoes.  

You loved being held at the most inconvience times for mommy, like cooking.  I know you just want to see what mommy is doing. 

I know your going to be an AMAZING big sister next month.  I cannot wait to see how you love baby Joanna.  It will be the sweetest I know!

We love you so much baby girl and I could not imagine life without you.  We love you love bug!!
