When
did my first born grow up to be a big girl? Love this spunky monkey.
Happy 2 1/2 birthday! To our sweet girl, big sister, and love bug, you
make our ❤ smile!
Date: 4/7/16
Age: 2 1/2 years old
Measurements:
Clothing: You wear 3T clothing. You have a love for about 3 shirts. You love your jammies and would wear them every day if I let you. You are in love with your "dolphin tail" shirt as shown in the picture. You love wearing socks and putting them on yourself. Many times we find you with your socks on your hands in the morning. I let you pick your clothes which does at times create some toddler tantrums. If I tell you something is dirty, you will give up and move on to another shirt or piece of clothing. You wear size 7 shoe and are currently in a size 5 pull up (fingers crossed we will be done with those soon!)
Eating: Some of your favorites include meatballs, "basketiti", black beans, fruit- apples, fruit cup (juice), grapes, veggies, bread, tacos, and Chick-i-lay. You of course LOVE your chips and queso, goldfish, cheeze its, candy, cinnamon bread, milk, muffins, donuts, and cupcakes- not that we have these that often but you are very much a fun of your sweets. Yesterday on our way to church you simply moaned, "I want chips and queso mommy!" It was so random but such a reminder that you are MY child for sure. And while sometimes you shovel food into your mouth, other times you are simply not hungry and only want milk. You do love your ice cold water.
Sleeping: You sleep in your big girl bed with your favorite loveys. They include your Memo (Finding Nemo Fish), Fox and Penny, baby blankie, and book- Goodnight Ark. You are a really good sleeper (most days). Putting you to bed is one of my favorite activities. You love story time, music time, and cuddling with us. I love your silly ways and how you call for Mommy. You go to bed between 7 and 7:30 and consistently wake up between 7:30 and 8 in the morning.
Activities & Tidbits:
- Currently we are attempting potty training. You love being a big girl and will let us know when you need to potty... mainly for the tee-tee candy. You call it your kiss candy now.
- You love going to the park, sliding, play dough, reading books- you know our current bedtime book almost by heart, playing in your kitchen, carrying bags and purses,
- You are so interested in what mommy and daddy are doing. Your vocabulary is getting so big. We love talking with you.
- I love hearing you "read"
- You call skunks- stunks and boars- boards
- You know our first and last names. Mine is Alicia Mommy Zellner (love it!)
- You want to do everything yourself!
- You eat your toothpaste. It makes teeth brushing interesting!
- You love to sing- ABCs, I'm a little Tea Pot, Twinkle Little Star, Jesus Loves Me, This Little Light of Mine,
- You began yoga at daycare this month and love your gym time.
- Cuddling in the bed with covers is one of your favorite Saturday morning activities
- You like to run your fingers through your hair when you drink your milk. You will also run your fingers through my hair and point out my eyes, eye brows, nose, and mouth.
- You love asking questions.
- One of your favorite activities is going to the movie theater and eating popcorn.
