20 Months



She made it into her 20's.

20 months old that is! Although, sometimes her attitude resembles that of a 20 year old, and not a toddler at her age, but she's really starting to bloom.

Her vocabulary has grown tremendously in the last month. She's really starting to babble and repeats everything we say to her. Some of the words she's really good at are Daddy (of course), Mommy, baby, milk, juice, bow, hey, huh and her own version of Austin.

She's really starting to test us. We'll tell her not to do something and she'll look right at us, give us the look and do it anyway. She thinks it's so funny, and honestly it's so hard not to laugh. Those looks are hilarious.

She's even attempting to get herself dressed. Sometimes even if she already has clothes on. Of course she can't do it yet, but she tries her hardest to get it done. She's still in love with her shoes. Most of the time she'll put on and take off her shoes when we ask her to. Most of the time they're on because she loves putting them on and taking them off.

I'll be taking her back to the doctor in a month for her weight check. I'm pretty sure she's going to have gained wait, but we'll have to wait anther month to see. She usually eats just as much as Austin, if not more. I'm really pushing the milk, hoping it will help her in the long run. Both the iron drops and the PediSure gave her the runs, so I doubt either one was helping her gain weight.

She and I will be having a girls day tomorrow. Because of Columbus Day, I have the day off. Normally Michael would have the day off, but because of what he does in the Army he has to work. And, Austin has to go to school. I won't know what to do with just one of them at home all day!

In 4 months, she'll be 2 years old. She'll be out the of stage where people ask how many months old she is. 2 years old, wow...

Sounds like she is growing and developing like any other little girl. As an attitude, in love with shoes, and is daddy's little girl. She has it all.

Good luck with the doctor's next month too.

Miss you lots.
