Our Lovely Rose: Here Comes The Sun

The past couple of weeks have been filled with silly moments and lots of smiles. Rose has truly transitioned to a toddler. We've switched her bottles to sippy cups now, except for her bedtime bottle. Her vocabulary continues to amaze us. She has picked up her Dad's singing of the Beatles songs. Her favorite is Here Comes the Sun. We'll catch her playing on the floor saying, "singing, sun, doo, doo." It's adorable! She can also tell you the names and sounds of most animals, and can recognize and repeat shapes. She can fill in most of the words in the book Goodnight Moon. She's sleeping through the night, nearly 11 hours most nights. It's wonderful getting some time back to ourselves!

Just playing around

Drool face

She loves to explore and has recently gotten more interested in climbing on things. She still loves to be outside and run around. Two more teeth are coming in on top, that makes 10 total. She had sleepovers with both grandparents a couple weeks ago. She was a good girl and had lots of fun. There are plenty of toys and attention to spoil her with :) One of her favorite activities with Grandma H is playing with her toy seal and reading her book about the seal. One of her favorite activities with Grandma and Grandpa T is walking down to the creek to look for ducks. We'll be driving there in the morning and as soon as we turn the corner to the neighborhood, she'll enthusiastically say "ducks, ducks!"

Stacking my blocks

Grandma and Grandpa T. took her to the petting farm a couple weeks ago, which she loved! All she talked about was Gracie the cow, the sheep, ducks, goats, chickens, pigs, and fish. The girl has no fear and repeatedly ran through the barn to chase the chickens out. We had to see for ourselves and took her back yesterday. It was hilarious. She had so much fun, and was a non stop little firecracker barreling through the farm with all of that energy and delight. We had a great time.
