21 Months Old

Ella is 21 months old as of yesterday. Her second birthday is fast approaching and she is growing so fast.

So what is in the life of a 21 month old? Well she can sing songs, she loves to sing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, Supper Why, Veggie Tales (anything from them) and ABC's. She knows her alphabet inside and out. She also knows up to 25 in her numbers. She surprised us with her numbers.She know up to 5 for the longest time then she got up to 10 recently and then 15 then a few days after that she went all the way to 25 and she did it more the once. She knows so many words and phrases now, she is always adding a new word or phrase to her list of things she knows. She still grunts for things and is learning the hard way to ask for what she wants. It is so cute because now she has started holding her hands together and begging for what she wants.

She is getting really strong too, she can pull herself up on anything and she is always moving, she doesn't sit still for much at all. She is learning to jump and hop and she almost has skipping down. She loves to color and color on everything. She loves to play with her sidewalk chalk. She loves to help out around the house and is starting to try to play games with the cat. The cat is ok with this idea some of the time.

She is starting potty training. She wants to sit on the big potty at least once a day now. She even got some toilet paper and wiped herself and flushed and washed her hands. She hasn't gone actually gone potty in the potty yet, but we will try pushing her a bit more soon. Maybe we will get some panties and try them out and she if that makes her want to do it more. She is showing signs that she is ready according to all that I have read. So we will see how this new adventure goes.
