Twenty-Two Months

Dear Elizabeth,

You are 22-months-old today!

22-months-old!

You have become such a big girl and we are so excited to watch you grow up!  You have been very busy in the last month: you are talking a lot, you traveled to Georgia for Thanksgiving, you went to a birthday party, you have seen a ton of Christmas lights, been to the Georgia Aquarium, getting your picture taken with Santa, and you got your first black eye.

You are about 22 pounds and I think about the same height as last month (32 inches).  

You wear 18-24 months shirts, pants, coats, pajamas, and socks.  You wear a size 5 shoes.  Just like last month, you still love to put on your coat and ask for it if you see Dad or I wearing our coats.

Some of your favorite things at the moment are: Mickey and Minnie Mouse, your Little People Nativity Scene (you love the animals and Baby Jesus).  You have started getting into puzzles, and you still like to read.  You love to watch Elmo's World, but you are not so into the rest of Sesame Street.  You love to hear helicopters and you look for them anytime you are outside.  

Everyday when we pick you up from Mrs. Vicki's house; you have to hug and kiss everyone before you can leave.  You are such a loving little girl and love to blow kisses, give hugs or high fives or fist bumps.  You say hi to random people all the time at the store, church, or running errands. 

You have continued to explore our home and we have expanded your boundaries.  You love to climb onto the couch or run around the dining room table.  You always want to play in the kitchen, but you are usually not allowed because the stove is probably on.

You still love milk and I feel like to you want to drink it all the time.  You LOVE yogurt and cheese.  Some of your favorite dinners are pasta with marinara sauce, pizza, Chick-Fil-A grilled nuggets, and taco meat.  You love corn, peaches, and bananas.  All you want for breakfast is dried cheerios, but sometimes you will eat oatmeal.

Dad and I love you so much and we have had a ton of fun with you this month.  We love you!
