This post is long, long overdue. Our little bug is actually closer to being 23 months old now than she is to being 22 months old, but time sometimes gets away from very busy parents. This will likely be a brief update, but needs to get recorded before we forget. (Or before another month passes by!)
-Though I was concerned about how she would do being away from me, Sprout initially handled my going back to work very well. She definitely wanted a lot of attention in the mornings and evenings, but nothing crazy. She maintained her sweet and silly personality. Ate well. Etc. Etc.
-This girl and her brother are quite the pair. She ADORES him. He's pretty smitten with her too. The two of them play nicely together almost all of the time. She often calls for him when she wakes up in the morning or from her nap. It's so, so sweet to see and makes my mama heart melt.
-Her language has continued to blossom. Lots of two-word combinations. My favourite exclamations from her are her unsolicited comments of "happy."
-Eating and sleeping remained pretty much the same. Not terrible, but not wonderful.
-She still loves to run and swing and jump and kick balls and just play in general.
-Definitely still loves books. She's started trying to sneak extras in at nap and bedtime. Sometimes we give in. She's smart though and if we let her have an extra will go and grab another three in the hopes that we will read them too.
-She really warmed up to swimming lessons. She still hates getting her head wet, but did really well kicking her legs and pulling her arms and even blowing some bubbles. We won't continue through the winter because it's too far and gets too cold and just becomes unenjoyable for me, but I'd consider taking her again in the spring.
It's late and I've had a crazy weekend of marathon report card writing, so I'm going to leave it at that. Sprout's twenty-three month update will be coming soon. :) This little one. She's getting big so fast.
She looks taller! Interested to see 2 year check up stats. I love the sweetness between siblings. Makes me momentarily think we did something right ;) Any plans for celebrating 2nd birthday?
ReplyDeleteShe's quite tall and slimming out. I don't think people are quite as crazy when they initially think she and The Bean are twins anymore.
DeleteNo set birthday plans yet. We should probably start thinking... we'll likely have a party early in December. (I know you've probably already got Boo's 2nd birthday decorations and loot bags all figured out! We're not that organized!)
Yes, yes I have. :)
DeleteWow, she's getting so big! It's officially been too long since we've seen you. :)
