So I have to brag on my little one for a minute. Addie has been counting for 10 since around her birthday but I could never get her to do it on command. Finally a few weeks ago she did it for Jarom and Mom so they didn't think I was nuts. Today I came up with a way to get her to do it for me when I wanted... a little bribery never hurt anyone... right?? Pink M&M's work wonders.
***BLOGGER IS HAVING VIDEO ISSUES (I checked their site)!!! Check newest post for video.
Addie had her two year check up last Friday and she made it on the growth chart for weight! I think this is due largely in part for her love of peanut butter. The girl is just like her Gramps in that she will down spoon after spoon of peanut butter. She loves the stuff. Her percentiles were: 1% weight, weighing in at 21.8 lbs, 37% height at 33 1/2 inches tall, and 21% head at 47 cm. The doctor was pleased with her growth and development and said they don't expect kids to count to 10 until kindergarten, yay Addie! Addie says the most ridiculous things now too... yesterday's was "I'm SO excited!!!" when we had to stop for a train.
On another note... I still haven't broken Addie from sleeping in our room. I know it is past due time, but she is in her OWN bed... just in our room. The doctor said for me to pick my battles, and that this one isn't worth fighting until Addie is a little more mature. I have to agree with her at this point. We will hopefully move soon and will revisit the issue then.

That is the cutest darn thing EVER! I love Addie. :)
Where you gonna move?
I love hearing Addie count! A little bragging isn't tooooo bad, so here goes... you knew your left from your right at that age. I figure that out when we were going to Mimmie's and I asked you if we should turn left or right to go to Mimmie's and you said left and then pointed. I tested you again and again and so did one of my brothers. :)
Super impressive! Avery has 123...6!9!8! And if you try to correct her she looks at you very knowingly and repeats whatever number she had previously said. Stinker. We need Addie to come and teach her :)
LOL Carly. That is what Addie did for me for the longest... she counted to ten a few times and then for a few months she'd skip numbers with a wicked grin. Little stinkers. Cyndi, we aren't sure where we are moving... nothing yet is "perfect". The house we loved sold fast so we are searching.
