Hmm lets see, whats new with ShaiAnn.

Shes talking up a storm, she will repeat almost anything you say to her
Still one nap a day with Mommy and still to bed at 8pm no problem
Wearing Pull-ups but NOT potty training yet.
Shes starting to tell me when shes Hungry by going to the fridge and saying "Hungry, Eat, Yogurt".
She had a nasty fall out in the driveway, got her first face of road rash.
Shes on her way to counting to 5 but says 5 where she should say 4 and then says 5 again.
She sings ALL the time. Her favorites to sing are Ba Ba black sheep and Twinkle Twinkle. If you sing most of it she will start the next line for her.
She has started to sing her abc’s as well.
Shes getting a lot better at eating herself. Most of the food stays in the dish and dosent get splattered all over the place.
Shes been having her sucky during the day…This is bad…but shes been cutting these 4 teeth all at once for what seems forever now, and it keeps me sane!

I dont know what else…I know there is so much more that I should be saying but ..its just so much a part of my everyday that its all normal to me now! lol.Ooo she will give me hugs and kisses all the time now! She will even ask for them! I love it!!!She knows way too much Ill tell you that much. If you give her a "command" she will do it. Like put something back that she has touched that is not hers, or to leave a room, or just about anything. Some things I think she will have no idea what Im saying and she will do it anyways! Shes floors me Im tellin ya. One Smart Cookie.Shes playing Peek A Boo with me now, lifting and droping her own blanket.FINALLY saying Bye Bye to people and starting to wave…NO idea why she was so slow with this one!She knows where her belly, chest, arm, let, knee, hand, head, hair, ear, eye, nose, lips, teeth, tongue, fingers, toes and almost where her bum is…she grabs at her front for the bum thing…lol.Oh Oh I know, shes drinking from a cup pretty good now! She still dribbles it down her front and then says UhOH! and OOPS! lolIf she gets somethng on her hands she will hold them out to me and say Uck and get me to wash them.In the bathroom she carries her little stoll over to the sink to wash her hands.Ive given her bangs a second cut. *sobs* Never did want to cut her hair.She never or Ill say HARDLY EVER takes temper tantrums. They do happen once in a blue moon but she is a wonderful little girl most of the time. If I take something from her or tell her no or make her share she will make this little fuss sound, turn around and make like she is leaving…and then just go about something else. Shes great that way. I never gave into her little fits so she knows that she wont win that way.Still not feeding her sugar much. My Grandmother got her some frozen Strawberry Flavored Yogurt…so I do feed her that sometimes after meals…Okay I have done it twice..lol. I still dont want her eating crappy foods.She loves yogurt and eats it everyday still, thank goodness! So good for her. She loves pineapple and grapes andoranges and apples. I still cut her grapes up in fours. I think she is growing again because she always wants more food lately.She is in size 2T and outgrowing it fast. Shoes…Size 5…lol big feet!I have no idea how tall she is or how much she weights..Its not an issue tho, shes doing great there.Loves bath time~ If you say Bath she is off to the bathroom door to bang on it and if you dont follow quickly she is walking back down the hall saying Bath Bath Bath and making little fuss noises…lol Cute~I finally got some things up on her walls…I know I was very slow on this! I bought a bunch of stuff from the dollar store and put it all up, it looks quite nice if I do say so myself…well …better than looking at white walls anyways.She has my photos all over the apartment most of the time. She picks up pictures of people she knows and says their names…I love it.If there is a car outside she starts yelling Betty Betty, Nanny, Trina, Daddy, Bill…lol She knows lots of names and uses them, of people that is…lol. She CANT jump yet…Were workin on her tho! lol.I dunno what else is new…
