20 months and counting

IMG_3037











It’s been awhile since I’ve done one of these Becca update posts, and she is doing so much now, so I wanted to share.  Sometimes it seems like she changes overnight.  Here are her stats:
  • weight – 30lbs
  • size 5 diaper
  • her eating has changed – she’s definitely much pickier, but for the most part she’ll try things (especially if you tell her there’s cheese on it.)
  • she’s not much into meat
  • she can sing her ABC’s
  • she can count to 11
  • she wears 18 – 24 month clothes (some 2T)
  • she has developed some “sassiness”
  • NO is her favorite word
  • time out is our most effective form of discipline, and yes, we have to ‘discipline’ quite often
  • her favorite thing to do is read books – The Very Hungry Caterpillar gets read A LOT
  • Mickey Mouse is her favorite t.v. show – thanks goodness because The Wiggles were getting old
  • she is very healthy
  • she loves going to Nat’s and playing with all of her friends – Ha (Hanna), Anne (Marianne), Caire (Claire), and Hudson
  • she is still in the Cradle Roll class at church and she loves having Carolina in there with her now
  • she has a shoe obsession
  • she prays every night before bed, and it is so cute to see who will make her prayer list each evening
  • 7:30 is our bedtime, and she loves going to bed, which is nice for mommy and daddy
  • she will repeat everything she hears:)
  • she loves brushing her teeth and washing her hands
  • she can identify a circle, triangle, and square
  • she’s pretty good with colors, especially red, blue, green, and ‘lellow’!
  • Hayes is her favorite person of all time
  • every time you give her a cookie, she replies with, “Thank you Nat, welcome.”
  • she loves going to the zoo – giraffes are her favorite animal
  • she is the love of our life and we couldn’t ask for a better baby toddler!

This year was amazing.  Not without it’s problems, but the blessings definitely outweigh anything negative.  I am thankful for so much – but most importantly my faith, my husband, my sweet little girl, and our family and friends!  With all of that, how can you not be thankful?

As we enter in to 2012 (that still seems weird to say), I look forward to all it has to offer.  I’ve made my resolutions – who hasn’t – but my main focus is going to be on my relationship with God.  I want to grow my faith and dedication to God and His word.  With that in order, then I know without a doubt this will be a great year!
