Penny is growing, growing, growing! Before my eyes my little baby has turned into this little person who explores, mimics, and tries new things. Did I mention she sings now? It has been such a joy these past few months to watch Penny develop day by day. Without fail she learns something new each day. It's fun to see her skills get more fine tuned as each day goes by. For instance, she is practicing counting and learning the letters of the alphabet. She knows numbers through 10 but its putting them in their proper orders what she is trying to figure at the moment. She definitely knows the letter P and for that matter, her name. She is learning shapes and colors as well. She of course, loves her "TB" aka the iPad with all of her Disney movies. She has watch some so many times she can anticipate when something is going to happen. I will be in the car and I will hear an "ow" only to realize she isn't hurt but she is foreshadowing when a frog character gets bumped on the head. She has taken to saying "Your Welcome" in place of "Thank you" which is really funny to hear but I somehow have to get her to understand she should say "Thank you" instead. She still loves painting, reading books, and playing in water but now she like wearing wet clothes. If her shirt or pants get wet she wants them replaced immediately. She still likes getting naked though and jumping into her water sink in the backyard. She is wearing size 6.5 shoes and size 2T clothing. Tall and slim the doctor says. I do worry she isn't getting enough vegetables. She is a pretty good eater but she eats what she wants when she wants. She may eat something one day but heaven forbid if you should offer it the next day! She is doing really good potty training. We are taking it one day at a time, mostly because we had a lot of diapers but she is getting really good at telling us when she has to "pee" and "poop." She is still sleeping in her crib. it's one of the few remaining baby things we have left. I found myself the other day cleaning out all of her old baby items either setting aside to give to friends or selling them on a mom swap side I found. It's sad to know that the time has come to the end for certain things. Oh Baby Girl, when did you get so big?!
