21 Month Update

Twenty. ONE. months.

My goodness!!! 

Last summer we were out snuggling in the sun with our tiny babe

 and now we are chasing after her at the parks, putting her on rides at Valleyfair, and wiping her face up after gobbling down heaps of watermelon (her fave!)

Age: 21 months

Stats: 29 pounds

Favorite Foods: Cheese, cheese, and more cheese! Cheese pizza, grilled cheese, cheese and crackers, macaroni and cheese... you name it! Also fruit, "beggies" (veggies), chips, pancakes, bacon, and anything covered in ketchup ;)

Words:

Repeating every word I say which is so fun! I crack up when she says things like "heb-bee" (heavy) and "swide" (slide) in her own little Emme way. She is already starting to say "thank you" when I give her things or take her places and is getting good at asking for things with "yes please". My polite little lady! We also went to Chicago at the end of May and Emme was all about saying "air-payne" and "Cago" ;)

Activities: 

Lots of summer fun going down at the Kleiner household! Zoo pass and Valleyfair pass have us outside enjoying the sun.  Going to the park on a daily basis, loves playing with her teddy bears and babies, and coloring!

Favorite Things: Bears (at the zoo, in books, stuffed bears... she is OBSESSED with bears!), mommy's chapstick, purses, shopping bags, bracelets, headbands... 100% girl over here ;) She is also in love with the water now that it is summer time!

Signature Moves: Asking to "wak" (walk) everywhere we go, throwing her shoes off the second we get into Target, dancing to any and every song she hears, climbing up on our new barstools.

Mom's Proudest Moment: Emme going potty the other day! We were doing really well with the potty back in February when she was just teeny tiny but now we are reintroducing it. She got some Minnie Mouse undies which are definitely a huge motivator along with "chock- it" (chocolate) ;)

Dad's Proudest Moment: Emme was so sweet and loving to Daddy when he threw out his back the other day. She climbed up on the doctor's table with him and just snuggled up to him and kissed his "boo-boos". These two just melt me!

Happy summer, ya'll!
Stay tuned for our summer adventures ;)
