Nineteen and Twenty Months Old!!

Nineteen Months Old - November 20, 2013
Twenty Months Old - December 20, 2013

Poor second child, for the first time I am combining two months into one post.  She turned 19 and 20 months old right around Thanksgiving and Christmas, respectively, and things were a little hectic around here...  Between traveling for Thanksgiving, decorating, shopping, going to parties and other activities I couldn't keep up.  Forgive me Sweet Ann Parker, I still kept up with everything you did/said and I think you had a pretty fun holiday season and that is what is most important.

19 Months:

AP's vocabulary really has been growing everyday.  She speaks in small sentences a lot of the time and lets us know what she wants.  We are constantly amazed.  I will do a big list in the 20 month part so keep reading!

She is still wearing some 12 month clothes but also fits into 18-24 month in some brands.  She wears a size 4 diaper and anywhere from a size 3 to size 5 shoe, depending on brand.  She eats a lot, but is getting more picky about what.  She loves eggs, waffles, grapes, hot dogs, pizza, egg rolls, any type of pasta, rice, and french fries.  She will eat some sweets, but not near as much as Caroline or me.  She prefers salty snacks.

Her sleeping has been horrible and we are still working on correcting this.  She cries and cries when we put her down and then wakes up repeatedly during the night.  It's miserable.

She is  quite a little climber.  She can get onto anything!  She also loves getting into everything.  We call her the raccoon.  She has such a funny little personality and we just love every second with her (well...maybe not those 3:00 am wake up calls).

20 Months:

Some things our baby genius has been saying lately:
Be nice.
No swiping.
Daisy get you (when she thinks Daisy is after her)
Heavy (when she picks up everything...even paper or something obviously not even close to heavy)
Giddy up
Blastoff
Sissy_____ (sleeping, crying, eating, etc.)
No
Mine
Ballet
Pirouette
Ta da!
I did it!!
Quiet daddy (or mommy, sissy, Daisy)
Mallows (for marshmallows, one of the only sweet things she does go nuts for)
She can sort of count to 10 with help and knows a lot of the alphabet
She knows a few colors, although she confuses them at times
She knows animals and their sounds
And so, so much more but the list could go on all day...

This month is the same as last as far as likes, sizes, etc.  She has just been adding to her vocabulary list!

One thing to note, she LOVES her sister.  Caroline is probably her favorite person in the world.  I love watching them form a sweet bond.  They truly are best friends and I love that!

Happy 19 and 20 Month birthday precious girl!  We love you so much, even though we only did one post for these two months :)  You adorable little personality keeps us smiling and laughing all day.  We love you AP!!

Here are some pictures from our recent mini session with Simple Color Photography...the best photographer on the face of the planet.
