I can't believe that in less than two months Kerriann will be TWO! It just doesn't seem possible. And I know the days between now and August 3rd are just going to keep flying by.
At 22 months Kerriann can
-Feed herself with a spoon
-Feed herself with a fork
-Put on and take off shoes by herself (velcro)
Her favorite books are
-Itsy Bitsy Spider
-Goodnight Moon
-Ballet Kitty
Her favorite television shows are
-Max and Ruby
-Sesame Street
-Dora the Explorer
-Mickey Mouse Clubhouse
Her favorite foods are
-Cheese
-Turkey burgers
-Animals crackers
-Blueberries
-Strawberries
Her favorite drinks are
-milk
-apple juice
-orange juice
She goes to bed between 8 and 9pm and wakes up between 6:30 and 7am. On good days she is taking a nap sometime around 3pm for about an hour. She can stay awake for a full 6 hour car ride.
She knows our house and says "We're home!" as we pull in. She can also do this for her grandparent's houses.
Here are a few phrases that she has said or uses on a regular basis:
-"Go outside"
-"Good morning, (insert name here), how did you sleep?"
-"What is that noise?"
-"Everybody's sleeping"
-"Where are we going?"
-"Be careful, (insert name here)"
-"Night night, (insert name here), see you in the morning"
-"Please"
-"Thank you, (insert name here)"
-There are so many more as you'll find by just spending a couple of minutes with her! Strangers are always amazed at how vocal she is for her age (especially because she is so tiny).
Songs she can sing all or part of
-ABCs
-Twinkle Twinkle Little Star
-Happy Birthday song
-Max and Ruby theme song
-Elmo's Song
She can count to ten, though not always on demand
Some of her favorite activities are
-Having her toenails painted
-Feeding and taking care of her stuffed animals
-Stacking blocks
-Attending classes at My Gym
-Going to the park and taking walks
-Dancing
-Visiting family members
Her favorite stuffed animals are
-Minnie Mouse
-Donald Duck
-Elmo
-Dora
-Monkey
-Moo Cow

We have not yet started potty training because of our travel schedule. I'm confident that she's close to being ready, we just have to pick a time that we're going to be home for a straight week and go for it!
We are tentatively planning a 2nd birthday party for Kerriann on Saturday, August 6, somewhere close to our condo. If anyone knows of a huge scheduling conflict, please let me know!
PS stay tuned for a few more posts about our weekend with Grammy and Papa!
She sounds soooo incredibly smart!! :) I know you are enjoying every second!! My granddaughter, who just turned two in March, is sitting in the couch across from me currently sticking marshmallows on the end of her finger and saying "look MiMi" haha they are just so darn cute when they are two!!
ReplyDeleteI am loving this age, as I'm sure you are too with your granddaughter! This is definitely my favorite so far, despite the occasional tantrums and her favorite word being "no." She is just so cute!!!
