22 Months Old

Kirksey, you are 22 months old today!
I feel like you have changed so much in the past 2 months.


You still wear 18 month clothes, size 4 diapers, and size 4 shoes. However, you have gotten a little bit taller.
You now have 16 teeth.


Your personality is showing more and more each day.
You can jump, kick a ball, and throw a ball over your head.
Your favorite book is Llama Llama Red Pajama. We read it every night and you finish every sentence.


You are repeating most words that I say to you.
You were even saying "cheese" in you monthly pictures.


You have such a sweet disposition.


You say "please" and "thank you" (I only have to prompt you about half the time).
You say "bless you", multiple times, when someone sneezes.


You still fall out on your belly when you are pitching a fit.


And you look at me to see the effect of your tantrum.


A few things you are saying these days...
"Belly butt" - means belly button
"Mama go" - means where did Mama go?
"Maci there" - means there's Maci
You do both of these things for anything and EVERYTHING
You get your pronouns mixed all the time. For example, you hold your arms up and say "hold you" instead of "hold me" 
You say "boo" while raising one arm to get us to jump and scream. You think that is hilarious.
Every time you hear a airplane you let us know.
You say "choo choo" every time you hear the train. You also add in the arms going back and forth going "chug chug" 


You love shoes and can put them on by yourself most of the time. You make sure to point them out to lots of people throughout the day.
You love ketchup, and any other thing you can dip.
You have learned to drink the milk out of your cereal bowl.


You still love to be outside, play at the playground, walk up and down the street.
You have figured out how to crawl from the back seat to the front seat so you can pretend to drive (in the parked car in our driveway)


You push all buttons and I have to fix everything each time I drive after you have been in my seat (like the wipers or blinkers going crazy when I turn the car back on).


You love Maci and chase after him everywhere.


You have had several timeouts for being mean to him, but thankfully he loves you right back and never gets mad at you.


You love being able to sit in regular chairs, beds, blowup mattresses. We had a fun day when daddy was working and played on the blowup mattress all day and even made a fort out of it.


You are nonstop. You love any kind of ball, train, truck, animal, doll...basically everything.


You have started getting up on the couch, pulling the blanket over you, and saying "night, night". Then you pat the pillow beside you and tell us to go night night. It is precious.


Oh, how we love you precious girl!
