Meeting Slugger

23 Months!

I am 26 lb 8 oz, 34.5" tall, and have a 20" head.

I can:
Jump with two feet of the ground
Say a full sentence
Make happy, sad, and surprised faces
Comb her own hair (not well)
Say thank you after I get something I want
Climb up onto chairs and climb off of chairs by myself
Recognize orange, pink, purple, black, white, brown and blue correctly
Get a little mixed up with red, yellow, and green

I love:
Checking myself out in the mirror
Puzzles
My dollhouse
Watching Elmo
Slides
Painting
Using chalk
Doing yoga
Helping with laundry

Grocery helper

She carried the basket the whole time. 

Same book, same koala, different morning.

We have jumping!

Today is the first, real jump!

Baking a Cake

She is being a little sneaky with the batter.

Reading to Koala

This has been our morning routine the last couple of days. Matilda kindly demands to go downstairs in her PJs immediately after waking up. I read her Peekaboo Baby 3-5 times. Then she finally admits that she is hungry for breakfast, so I step out to the kitchen and she takes over reading for Koala.

I like....

Skiing

Snowy day

Enjoying a nice sled rude to the grocery store. 

And the first snow angel. 

Snow!

Painting

Matilda's first real painting. We put it up on the wall to dry and now she points at it and says "Tildie's painting."

Helping cook

Matilda helped make calzones for dinner. 

Ham for the camera

Matilda has gotten into the habit of seeing us try to take a picture of her and running to us asking to "See Tildie" before we even get the picture taken. After some explanation, I have been able to get her back and smile for the camera. She is a pretty big ham for the camera. And she is doing a good job of practicing her smile. 

Reading to baby

I was reading a book, so Matilda decided to share a book with her baby. 

Ukulele

Playing the ukulele is serious business. 

Friends!

Giggling and sharing a muffin.
