Reagan and Kyleigh - July 2013

My notes from July 2013:

Reagan:

  • Getting much better at counting
  • I asked him who his best friend is and he said JT
  • We (finally) moved him to a big boy bed!
  • One day, all morning he told me, "I'm so tired" This was hilarious coming from a 2 year old
  • He'll show me his coloring and then says, "That's so pretty"
  • Managed to lock himself in Sue's bathroom with the light off, but wasn't phased by it at all
  • Playing independently better
  • He has a few stories almost memorized and he'll read them aloud to himself or Kyleigh
  • He is growing a lot in his understanding of concepts
  • Asks many questions: "What's that?" "Where did that come from?" "What are we having?"
  • He's been showing concern for others (when I throw up due to morning sickness or have been coughing a lot)
  • Very possessive of a few things (primarily his phone, but also his "beet")
  • He doesn't like it when Kyleigh crawls on me; he'll scream "That's MY mommy!"
  • Throws tantrums a lot when he doesn't get his way
  • Identifies his drool (so gross)
  • Wants to race Kyleigh around the house on his car
Kyleigh:
  • Starting to climb (found her on the side table in the breezeway, as well as into the dishwasher)
  • Becoming much pickier with food
  • LOVES to throw her food on the ground
  • Says "Uh-ooh"
  • Much more difficult to feed; she changes her mind daily about what she likes
  • Can walk backwards fairly well
  • Barely starting to wave (not all the time, but occasionally)
  • Starting to like books better (Peek-a-Who, Brown Bear, Mr. Brown Can Moo, Can You?)
  • Will come and sit in my lap if I'm on the floor
  • Loves to crawl all over me
  • Learning how to follow commands (ie, go get your milk)
  • Scrunches her nose when she smiles big
  • Walks all over the place; I can't keep her in one spot
  • Starting to throw tantrums; she'll sit/throw herself down on the ground when she doesn't want to do something
  • Seems to understand a lot of what we tell her to do, but doesn't always do it
  • Showing an interest in feeding herself with a spoon
  • Does not like to drink her milk
  • Needs to be in the same room as me - all the time
  • Laughing more
  • Takes apart Reagan's alphabet floor daily
  • Finally lowered her bed
  • Likes to dance when music is playing
  • Favorite toy is still the plastic Easter eggs
  • Gets on Reagan's firetruck and presses the buttons, but doesn't go anywhere
  • Grunting as loud as possible is her main form of communication (crying is her other one)
