19 and 20 months..

I have gotten really behind on Burkleigh's monthly pictures with updates.  But, I don't want to forget so here is what we've been up too:

*You turned 19 months in January and you have really become miss thang!  :) You are so funny!  You constantly make us laugh.

*You are starting to talk a lot more but mostly, "what dat" is what you say.  You understand everything though.  You love to watch for daddy to come home and point to his truck outside.

*You love to clap, dance and recently you've started hopping. It is too funny.. you still love Barney but you like most of the pbs shows.  Daniel Tiger, Sid, Super Why and Mickey.

*You are too funny when you can't find something.. you throw your hands up like this and say "where" but it doesn't quite come out like that.  

*You LOVE to throw a ball with your daddy.  You are good at it too and I think softball is in your near future.  Oh my.. 

* You are a momma's girl at nighttime but you are a daddys girl when he is here.  

*You still love your books and you've gotten really good at your puzzles too.  You love your shape one by Mel and Doug and your favorite books are the lift the flap ones.  You love your big sister book too.  We read it over and over!

*You and Lily love to play together and we try to see them at least once a week.  

*YOu love going to gymboree and you are playing/interacting/participating so much better now.

 *You love to play with my shoes, necklaces, earrings, bracelets.  You would choose those over your toys anyday.

*You still get into Oscar's food and eat it and it grosses me out.  Everytime I fuss at you, you will drop it on the floor for Oscar to get.  You love to go get it and feed it to him.

 *You are such a good little helper too.  You will go take sissy's bottles to the sink when I ask you, take your clothes to your room, help me with the laundry, bring us our phones, etc.  You are such a good little helper.

*You love bathtime and playing with your letters. You know your special letter is B and you can pick it out of all your letters.  Yay for you!

*You did like your crayons in the tub until you started eating them and I had to take them away.

*Your favorite word is "No"and you say it alot.  

*You are sometimes a picky eater but for the most part will eat what we eat.  Your favorites right now are chicken nuggests, hot dogs, grilled cheese, spagetti, blueberries, fruit snacks and popsicles.  You sometimes eat 4 a day.  You love them!

* You are obsessed with our phones and play with them too much.  When daddy gets home from work, you want his keys and phone.  You are really good at playing on it.

*You are a good little napper and will sleep for about 3 hours in the afternoons.

20 months

 *You turned 20 months in February, just right after sissy was born.  The biggest thing that happened in  February was you started SLEEPING THROUGH THE NIGHT!!!
It only took 20 months but we did it!!  Yay!  Let's just say you were working your momma!! After sissy was born you stayed with Mimi and Pop for two nights and slept through the night both nights so after that I knew you could do it and were just waking up out of habit.  When we got home from the hospital, we did bedtime bootcamp with you.  It was rough for about a week.  You would cry yourself to sleep and wake up in the night and cry and cry but you finally got the hang of it and realized we werne't coming in there.  It was not easy but I knew you were fine and it was the best thing I could have done for you and me!  Now, you sleep all night everynight!!!  You go to bed around 8:30-9 and sleep till around then in the am.  You are a smart little thing!

*You love your sissy and you are such a good big sister.  I think this age is so fun! You wear me out everyday but you are such a sweet girl.  I love you bunches!
