More words!

13) Boots (she likes wearing winter and rain boots in all seasons)
14) Block
15) Ball
16) Blank (for blankie)

But the last 3 all kind of sound alike, ha!  Like "Blah."  She's coming along!

#12 Vy (for Violet)

So Savannah can say "Vy," for Violet, the purple puppy dog that sings her songs and says, "Snuggle up, Savannah!"   It's appropriate that they know each other's names.  :)  So cute.

She also hums along with me when I sing "Jesus Loves Me" and "You are My Sunshine" at bedtime, can sing the opening lines of bob the builder, and can sing "Ashes, ashes, we all fall down!" kind of.  :)

Bob the Builder

I took the kids today to see Bob the Builder at the Midland Center for the Arts.  I had taken Jackson 2 years ago before Savannah came along, and he was really into it then, but not so much now.  Even so, he did a great job playing with the construction vehicles, and he even gave the fake Bob statue a big hug.  Savannah had a blast--JW says she's a little tomboy.  :)  She can sing the them song, but it sounds like this, "Baaaa-ba-ba-ba"  instead of "Bobbbbb, the Builder..."  Cute!

Also, she can say #11, "Boo Boo" because yesterday she tripped and fell flat on her face, making me worried that her little cute button nose was broken!  I don't think it is, no black eyes, but it's still swollen and bruised, and it looks a little deformed if you ask me.  Here's hoping her little nose is cute again, ha!

Overheard

As we were taking a wagon ride, I gave Jackson the Luigi's Italian Ice, and I asked him to please share it with Savannah.  He did a great job, 2 spoons for himself, 1 spoon for sister, etc. 

Me: "Great job sharing, Jackson!"
Him: "That's what I do now."

Sweet!

Jackson Meets Spider-Man


We had a great time tonight!  Spider Man was at Barnes and Noble, and Jackson and Savannah got to meet him!  There weren't that many kids, so Jackson pretty much had Spidey to himself.  He followed Spider Man around, and they even got to play trains together!  It was great.  Jackson's wearing his Spider Man pj's and Spider Man socks. 

In other news, Savannah said #10 of her words..."beep, beep!"  You can tell she has a big brother, ha!

22 Months--Almost 2 years old!

Savannah is almost 2 years old, I can't believe it!  In some ways, she seems so much like a little baby--still in diapers, nursing, not talking too much...but she's growing and thriving and learning more every day.  Here a few more words she can say...

7.) Bye
8.) Bubbles
9.) Gaga/Papa

She's wearing 24 month/2T clothes, still in size 4 diapers, size 6 shoes.
She loves picking her outfits and shoes in the morning.
She loves playing with Jackson--he wakes her up every morning in her crib, they play in there until I come up, it's adorable listening to them in the monitor.
She is really good at putting puzzles together.
She shares, picks up toys, gives lots of hugs and kisses, and is a great eater!
Still nursing...
Will fold her hands to pray at bedtime, loves when Daddy and I sing to her--I sing "You are My Sunshine," Daddy sings "Jesus Loves Me."
She loves being outside, doing whatever Jackson is doing.
She's a great sleeper!  She goes to bed at 8, wakes up around 7, and naps about 3 hours in the afternoon. 
Her current favorite activity is blowing bubbles.  :)

And now the planning for her second birthday party begins...

Bummer...

I took Jackson to get his hair cut tonight, and when asked if that's what he was there for, he said, "Yeah, it's kind of a bummer."  Ha!  I wonder which of us uttered that phrase, or if it's from the movie, "Cars."  It was so funny.  He looks so grown up with his short spiky hair cut!!
