22 Months

Elye Kate, at 22 months you . . .

-love to take a shower. You call it rain. The things you learn b/c you have a big sister
-have pee-peed on the potty twice. The second time it was a lot. You always have to sit on the potty like your sister before bath time. You have been grunting and grimacing with no luck, but you finally figured it out. However, June is a heavy month of traveling for us so I'm thinking we'll wait until July to even start thinking about real potty training.

-are still a little squirt, but have the biggest belly. You will also stick it out as far as you can when we say, "Big Belly!"

-will go down the big slide at the playground all by yourself.

-repeat everything. You are constantly asking, "Wha's that?" Then you repeat whatever we say.

-love outside. That's great, except for when your crying to go swing at 7:00 AM Sunday morning. Mama needs a little time to wake up before we go play outside!

-love your sissy and your cousins, Grace and Lyla. You ask for all of them anytime they're not around.

-are not the best eater, but I just keep putting it all in front of you hoping you'll catch on one day. If I let you, you would drink your milk for every meal.

-now say "Milk" instead of "Dilk."

-still love to throw your food on the floor, a lot. The good news is that you will stay in time out when I put you there immediately after. There are lots of tears, but at least you stay put.

-are much more giving with your kisses than your sister is.

-still play with your hair when you drink your milk. Your still just my little baby!
