I won't have official stats because she doesn't go back to the doctor until three, but she is around 36 lbs. and by my measurement, a hair under 37 inches.
Brynne has changed so much in the past six months. Most notably she talks NON STOP! A couple of months before she turned two her vocabulary really took off and it has just kept going and going! She talks all day, recites parts of ALL of her books (which is a lot!), and sings and knows the words to tons of songs! She also pretends to call people on her cell phone all the time and have extensive conversations with them.
She still loves to read all the time too! When we moved here Chris took her to the library and signed her up for a summer reading program. The goal is 20 hours of reading. I only guesstimate, but I'm pretty sure we've already passed that and it doesn't even end until almost the middle of August.
She knows all her upper case letters, some of the lower case, and the sound most of them make. She knows how to spell her first and last name (lucky for her we have such an easy last name!). She can count to 20, sometimes better than others, and recognize many of the number 1-10. I wish I could take credit for this, but I have the great Leap Frog to thank!
She is quite active nowadays. She finally mastered jumping without holding on to anything and shortly after she turned two she turned into a major climber. Thankfully the climbing has calmed down a bit, but still more than before. Some days I wonder where she gets all her energy! I am glad we are in a bigger house now where she has plenty of room to run around and get some of that energy out!
She has some big changes coming, in the next couple of months we will be either converting her crib to a toddler bed or switching her to a full size bed, then we will be (attempting!) potty training shortly after that.
We are also planning to put her in a preschool type program two mornings a week starting this fall. I think she will love it and it will be good for her (and me!).
The biggest change of all will come right around her birthday!
More details coming soon :)
And because I'll never remember this in the future, her schedule is:
Usually wakes sometime between 7-7:30 breakfast
9:45-10 snack
11:45 lunch
1-3:45 nap, then snack at 3:45
5:45 dinner
7:30 bed
This schedule works great most days, but there is usually a day here and there where she doesn't fall asleep for her nap for whatever reason. On those days she happily plays in her crib for "rest" time. It is so fun to hear all the things she says on these days, even though I would prefer she be asleep!
