20 Month Update

The offical countdown to my birthday has begun! Only four more months! This past month has been CRAZY as far as my health goes. Many of you know, I had some testing done, and am being treated after the results came back. Mommy and I also caught a virus last week, and have been "down" for days! (My apologies for the lack of posting last week, but I am sure you can understand!) Both of us are feeling somewhat better, but not completely. We're still trying to "lie low" for a few more days. I am talking ALL THE TIME now! I pretty much speak in complete sentences. I am still repeating anything and everything I hear. I started to sing songs on my own now. I don't always know all the words, but I try! My favorite song, as a lot of y'all know, is "Bow wow wow, who's dog are thou.." I always sing, "Bow wow wow, whose wow wow", and Mommy thinks it's really cute! I can now jump and am getting more adventurous about climbing independently. I enjoy pretend play. I really like to pretend to cook things in my kitchen (my favorite being cake, of course!) I am also getting along really well with the friends I have made. I am really good at taking turns, and sharing my toys. I can count to seven. I know more letters this month. I also know all of my basic shapes. I am learning more obscure colors. I am learning about manners and how to ask for things I want (nicely). I still really like hanging out with Frisco (as depicted above). I even go outside and call for him (just like Mommy does!) My interests now include penguins, painting, cooking/baking, and picking out my own clothes.
