Lexie::20 Months

So Lexie - you have hit the 20 month mark, the BIG 20, 2 decades...yes, yes, I know it is only in months. But, you are leaving the baby behind more and more every day. Your vocabulary is amazing and you mimic everything you hear - both good and bad. You know your very first verb tense "eating" and are stringing together more and more sentences each day. We are having conversations now which is pretty cool.

However, we have also officially started the "terrible 2's" - meaning you cry if you don't get your way. I know this is your first test of the wills - BTW, I will always win during the fight to get you in your car seat - and while I know it is natural, Daddy and I are seeing the first try of our patience. But oh well, it is great to see your personality take on more and more. Daddy mentioned the other day that there are now longer periods were you entertain yourself and it is fun to see the quizical expression on your face as you explore.



Your favorites this month: Monkeys - both real and stuffed, Calliou seems to be winning over Elmo, if ever so slightly and you will dance anytime you hear music.

You are refusing to sit in your high chair to eat and want to sit at the table like a big girl, but that's OK, we like have you at the table with us. Potty training is underway, so I apologize in advance to anyone who Lexie talks to about the potty and what they do in there, but we are very intrigued.

So here is to your 20 months......thanks for the adventure!
