Her first ponytail!
She’s cut three more teeth this quarter – all within the space of a couple of weeks. She’s always climbing, running (with crazy legs flying in all directions and a giant dimpled grin on her face), and dancing. A little non-stop ball of energy. Lots of new words have been added – “bay-bee” is so cute when she says it. She knows most of her body parts and will point out her own or other’s belly button, nose, mouth, eye, ears, etc… She seems to be fascinated with socks and shoes and repeatedly says “sock” or “shoe” when it’s time to put them on. She surprised me with a very clear “‘scuse you” when I said it to her after she burped a little. If you catch her in the right mood she’ll lay some big ol’ open mouth baby kisses on you!
I sing to her when I put her to bed each night, always beginning with Row, Row, Row Your Boat. She’s started asking to be sung to by saying “woa, woa, woa” – so super cute, and I’m pretty sure she’s the only one who’s ever asked me to sing. I have no illusions that I have a nice singing voice.
She’s darling! My daughter is the only one that asks me to sing too. She’ll also tell me not to sing sometimes too though, I thought that wasn’t supposed to start until their tween years 🙂
What an adorable little ponytail! She’s darling. My Mack is 22 months and he loves shoes too.
