20 Months

Filed Under Food, Talking, Twenty Months | 2 Comments

Bailey has been 20 months old for a while so I figure it’s high time for me to post about it. This month has been amazing, frustrating, exhausting, energizing, snotty, funny… I have run the whole gamut of emotions over the last few weeks. I can tell Bailey is getting closer to two. She has a mind of her own and an attitude, too. She can also be very sweet and loves to try to make us laugh. She makes funny faces and is talking like crazy.

She puts two or three words together now! Some of her latest phrases are “Where’s it?” “Where’s it baby?” (looking for her doll) “Open it,” “Need that,” and “Thank you, welcome” which she says after I hand her something. Here is a list of her current words:

I can tell we are getting closer to the “terrible twos” as we certainly have our rough days! Bailey likes to test her limits. Once she ends up in time out she is quick to say “Sowwy, mommy!” and try to get out of trouble. She is also sneaky. She tries to duck and sneak away if you are trying to catch her for a diaper change or bedtime. Speaking of which, she loves sleeping with lots of blankies now. I keep finding her with them over her head. I check on her right after she falls asleep and move all of her blankets away from her face. We are also working on learning more about the potty. Not much success, but we have some new books and she understands that she makes pee in her diaper, etc.

Favorite foods right now are shredded cheese, grapes, Gerber ravioli, crackers and milk. She also has discovered that she likes pizza and lollipops. She also likes raw carrots cut into thin strips but they make her gag sometimes. She refuses to even taste most things that she doesn’t recognize.

I guess that’s what is new with our Bug. I’m just glad I remembered to get this posted. Since she’s almost TWENTY-ONE MONTHS OLD. Wow.
