Lots of changes in the last year. I look at my baby and how much she has grown and can't help but picture her with her backpack on and entering her first day of kindergarten. It makes me sad how fast she has grown and turned into a little girl. She really is such a beautiful, sweet and kind-hearted child. She enjoys making others smile and is still such a little lover girl. She loves to snuggle and says the most hilarious things. I wish I had a book to record everything she says that makes me laugh but that would be a full time job.
She really enjoys daycare and her friends there. Some of her best friends there are Autumn, Macy, Kaleena, Logan, Vivi, Sophie, twins Jonah and Joshua. She has learned all of her letters (thanks to Penny) upper and lower case and associates many of them with a word beginning with that sound. One of her favorite things to do before bed is practice her letter flashcards with her daddy. She is also doing a great job with tracing. She enjoys tracing her name, letters, lines, shapes etc. Great skills for Kindergarten! :)
Numbers are more difficult for her to identify although she knows the 1,2 and is now learning the 3. She still counts to 13??
Madelyn is such a sweet big sister to Alyssa. She truly loves having her around and is always so eager to kiss and hug "baby Alyssa". She likes to talk about all the things baby Alyssa will be able to do when she gets a little bigger. It's pretty cute and I can't wait to see their sister bond form and grow in the coming years. What a blessing they will be to each other.
Weight:27 lbs (25th percentile)
Height: 36" (25th percentile)
Doctor says she is a petite little thing although doing great developmentally.
Milestones this year include potty training in August and quickly becoming a pro pee-er. She had some struggles with going poop due to her being constipated for a short while. After getting the constipatio under control, she remained scarred and put up a huge fuss every time she had to poo on the potty. A few accidents, miralax, tears shed, rewards and 5 months later I am happy to report we have MOVED ON. Literally, overnight she became pro pee-er AND pooper and has been now since about mid-January. Such a praise! I thought we'd never seen the day:)
