One more month until my little Lexi turns 2! Yikes! How can she be this old already?! This month she has turned into a little parrot, repeating everything I say. Or what anybody else says, for that matter! She says things like, "lemme check", "be right back", "I get black pen", "no likey", "lemme help", "oh honey", She's even starting to say full sentences like "Jenny push baby swing". A while back on Easter KJ's sister Jenny came over. She was playing with Lexi outside and pushed her for a while on the swing. That apparently made a huge impression on Lexi because she hasn't stopped talking about it! Every time she swings in the baby swing she says it at least 10 times. "Jenny push baby swing!"
Another thing that made a big impression was meeting Daniel Tiger a month or so ago. I put a picture of her and Daniel on the fridge and she points to it and says, "Big Daniel! Big Daniel!" I'm not sure when long term memory kicks in, but she can definitely remember back to things a few months ago now. Pretty cool!
The "tabby" continues to be her absolute favorite toy. A month or so ago I bought an older iPad mini off a friend of ours. I got a nice kid friendly case for it and Lexi and I share it. Her favorite apps are Endless Numbers, Elmo Calls, Goldilocks, the Daniel Tiger apps, and the PBS app.
Lexi can count to 10! She got 1-5 down last month and has added 6-10 this month. I'm so proud of how she's starting to pick things up like that! Some times she gets the numbers mixed up or forgets some "1, 3, 5, 6, 8-9-10!"
One thing Lexi has been struggling with this month is a persistent cough. She caught a bad cold at the beginning of the month and she's had this cough ever since. I took her to the doctor twice for it because it was pretty bad and they seem to think it's allergies. We tried children's Claritin and did see much difference. So then they put her on a children's Singular. I honestly haven't seen a difference with it either. The cough has gotten better, but she still gets it bad when she naps and sleeps at night. I'm hoping it will clear up soon!
Favorite books this month have been "Snow White and Rose Red", "Clifford the Champion", "Clifford the Big Red Dog", "Daniel Tiger Welcome to the Neighborhood", and "May I Bring a Friend".
She's such a goof ball sometimes!
Lots of Love,
KJsbabe
