21 Months...Speaking in sentences?

Mommy just can't keep up with me anymore! I say so many things now that she can't write it all down. I say a lot of 3-4 word sentences! I'm not a baby anymore! Annie has been gone most of this month, so I have been in good hands with Nana Arden and Grandma Kathy during the days. Mommy was also gone for 4 days, so daddy and I got to hang out. I had a lot of fun learning new things! Trying on my new snowsuit Oops, I fell over! Forget it, I give up! You put your left hand out Running with spoons (good thing they aren't scissors!) By the way, where are my pants? Goota keep in touch with my peeps! The many faces of Ellie Are you kidding me?

20 1/2 months...

I can say so much these days! Some of my new words are "kangaroo", "Boyer", "sweet potatoes", "black walnuts", "hippo-pa-a-mis", and "Luke" (a boy who will be coming to the sitter's soon. I also say, "Chiefs-touchdown!" I say a lot of phrases too, like "decorate it", "cut it up", and "I fall down". I can count to 10, but I skip 4. I asked a squirrel at the park, "Where you going?" and a grasshopper at home, "What you doing?" I love animals and being outside. We had lots of fun going to the park lately, and our recent visit to see my grandparents!

20 Months...Learning lots!

I really have learned a lot this month! I have learned how to do sommersaults and open a door! I can also count to ten by myself (sometimes I skip number 4 and 8 though.) I like to sing a lot too, especially the alphabet song, Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star, and Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes. I got my first 2nd molar on the upper right, so I now have 17 teeth! I'm not sure if it's because I am teething or not, but I haven't felt very good the past week or so. I have gone on a couple of play dates with mommy and her friends and their kids. I am also learning some big words, like "moke tee-te-ter" (smoke detector) and mommy's personal favorite "wu-woo" (love you) right before bed. I got an extra snuggle after that one. I am also using the potty chair a lot, and have lots of "doggie stickers" to show for it! Getting ready in the morning I love my monkeys! And the home of the...CHIEFS! Love my accessories too! Hello! Putting everything exactly where it belongs

19 1/2 Months...Still learning!

Mommy and daddy have been working a lot lately, and I love spending time at my baby-sitter's! I am learning so much there, and mommy and daddy are surprised when I say or do new things. I can say "rainbow", "sweeping floor", "suggle" (snuggle), "pumpkin", "cimmamon" (cinnamon), "why-bra-e" (library), "jemmy-mean" (jelly bean), "boots", "exercising", "touchdown", "Nike swish", "lid", "ew-a fat" (elephant), and "Pe-ce-a" (Pricilla). I also like to say, "Peek a boo, I see you!" I did learn something the hard way though. I started biting the boy at the baby-sitter's. Mommy and daddy were not happy, and I got a couple time outs. I decided to stop biting after 2 times. I got to go to Family Fun Night at mommy's work one night, and the library to see Pricilla the elephant another night.

19 Months...Putting it all together

I have learned a lot the past couple of weeks. I can say some big words too! Some of them are "cal-ca-tain-er" (calculator) and "cackertaer" (caterpillar). I know that they go into a "coon" (cocoon) and come out as a "bu-er-fy" (butterfly). I also say "bless you" after someone sneezes. I love to sing a lot and can say words in some songs, like Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star and The Wheels on the Bus. I say "ABCD" to get mommy and daddy to play the alphabet song on the stereo. I'm still working on this potty training thing. It's hard work! I got up off the potty at Annie's and peed all over her floor one day! Even though she wasn't mad, I made sure I told her "sorry" later that day. We had Auntie Heather, Uncle Sean, and Ashley over one day and we got to play at the park. I went down a big slide all by myself! I also got to see a lot of cousins too. This girl loves vacuuming! See Ashley, the wheels on the bus go round and round... Ashley wanted me to sit on her lap, but I was not digging it! Time to get me a real pillow Zzzzz.... Ready for a luau!
