22 months

Kyla loves blowing bubbles

Trying to pop bubbles...

Pop!

Bubbles, bubbles


Kyla is 22 months old!!! Only two more months until Kyla is a big 2 year old, However if you saw the fits that she has started to throw you might think she is already in her terrible two's! Lately if she is not getting what she wants she screams so loud and her body goes limp so that you can not even pick her up. You just have to let her get it out and then a minute later she is perfectly fine like nothing ever happened. Luckily she is not doing this too often, because it can be a little embarrassing when she does this in public.

Other than that, Kyla is a very happy girl! She is enjoying the nicer weather, although I am still waiting for it to warm up more. She has spending a lot of her time playing in her water table with all of her water toys, going on wagon rides, riding in her car, riding her trike and blowing bubbles. She has also been enjoying going to the park frequently and absolutely loves the swings, slides and sand boxes. Also now that it is spring she has been enjoying going out and looking for the bunnies in my parents yard. There are two bunnies that we see almost every day and she loves them! We have also been going to the zoo pretty frequently, we even got a seasons pass.

With the increasing day light, which is now around 18 hours a day, Kyla is not sleeping nearly as much as before. Lately she is going to bed later, waking up earlier and napping less! She acts a little tired at times during the day, but is doing pretty good with the adjustment. With the longer days she is also wanting to get outside first thing in the morning and wants to stay out late at night playing as well.

Kyla has started to finally enjoy watching cartoons, she will beg for cartoons and then she will sit there and watch them for about 5 minutes while she has her morning bottle. This is about the only five minutes during the day that Kyla is not on the go!

Kyla has been eating non stop this month too, which explains the sudden growth spurt. It seemed like just over night she outgrew the majority of her 18 month clothes. She now weights 25 pounds and is 34 inches tall. She likes to eat pretty healthy, her favorite foods are broccoli, peas, corn, strawberries, eggs, bagels with cream cheese and ketchup! Just like Jon she can eat Ketchup on anything, including on it's own. She also loves to eat cookies, especially homemade chocolate cookies. It is so funny to go the grocery store and see her get so excited when we walk by all of her favorite vegetables. I don't know if I have ever seen a kid beg for broccoli and peas!

Kyla is also working on developing her vocabulary more and more each day. She has become much better at putting a couple words together and copies absolutely every word that comes out of your mouth. She is learning pretty quickly and has picked up lots of funny things to say. We are still working on how she says "fit" and "bed", they both sound like the b-word, and "sit" can sometimes also sound like a bad word! If you didn't know better you would definitely think she had a dirty mouth! She keeps us pretty entertained with the funny things she says!
