27 months!

My baby girl is growing up:( I love that have this blog to be able to document all the highlights of each month of her life! Here are just a few things from this month:


Little miss is becoming "opinionated." Part of growing up yes, but a sad day when you don't get what you want:( Like getting to hold your snacks during a picture, watching 300 episodes of Mickey or going out to play in the snow when you have fever.


She is however finally starting to practice her "big sister" or "motherly" skills by pretending to feed her "bebe" (an icecream cone!) and cooking in her kitchen. Lots of "yummmmmm."
We also have a budding fashionista (I know, I know she has been fashionable since day one but that was all my choices!). She is always accessorizing with sunglasses (just like momma wears hers), necklaces, and bracelets. She loves to put on ALL of my bracelets when I am getting ready and I often find her with my hair rubber bands around her wrists!

See what I mean??? Goofy girl woke up from nap this day with none other than.....a Fiona headband!

She is also starting to be....just downright silly and I LOVE it. Lately one of the funniest things is when she tries to put herself in little containers!

I have also been trying to cook more and I guess she is noticing. Little girl really loves to help momma in the kitchen.

Are you noticing a trend in any of these pics? Well, lets just say that this month Callyn has all of the sudden become very possesive of certain items. At first it was Elmo. But, Elmo talks and when mommy hears Elmo on the monitor at 3:00 a.m. he loses his privileges. SO, now it's Mickey. Mickey mouse doesn't talk, but he does sleep with Callyn, go to school with Callyn, cook with Callyn and even shares the occasional yogurt with Callyn;)

Before church this past Sunday....before falling at church scraping up her chin and almost biting through her tongue. If there is an accident she is going to find it!

This is how I find my sweet girl most mornings. I know this is going to come in quiet handy once we have this new baby. She is SO sweet and will gather all of her things and just sit and play!

BIG GIRL!!

Few other things I want to remember:


  • Callyn Joy you are making so much progress with your speech! Our goal is more spontaneous words and you have added several this month. Mickey, milk, thank you, please, and night night are just a few. You are also starting to put 2 words together- today you said "bye bye beau" to your friend at school.

  • You can count to 10 all by yourself and never miss a number. You can also sing the WHOLE alphabet!!!!

  • you are starting to show interest in potty training and i think you would probably catch on if i really worked with you, but i have decided to wait until spring break when we have some time at home to try again!

  • you are still in a size 2t clothes and now a size 7 shoe. You have grown over 2 inches in 6 months in height!

  • You would watch TV ALL day if we let you, so we have to hide the remote and keep you busy doing other things. You love going outside and playing with your new toys and you also love to do all things artsy- stamps, paint, colors, stickers, etc.

She is just growing up so much! It is so precious how she helps you in the kitchen and plays by herself. Little girls are so fun! :)
