Thirty Months


 My sweet Sierra is 2 1/2 years old!  Here's what she is up to at 30 months -

 -Weighs 27 lbs and is about 35.5 inches tall.

- Wears a mix of mostly 3T clothes. 
-Wears a size 4 diaper.  Still needs help pooping.
-Drinks water, juice, and milk.  Loves oatmeal, bagels, pizza, spaghetti, and mac and cheese.
-Naps once a day around 1:00.  Sleeps about 2 hours.  Goes to bed around 8 and sleeps until about 7:00.  She was getting up at 6 something every day and then napping for only an hour.  Fortunately it was a short lived phase.
-Walks everywhere - our house, other's houses, the store, the park, the pool, church.  I do still carry her a good bit, but only because I can't always convince her to walk the direction we need to go.
-Jumps and dances on command.  Both are hilarious.
-Is doing well in speech therapy.  She says "Hi" to everyone while waving.  Repeats "Mama" and "Dada" on command.  She used to say "Toes", but she won't anymore.  Tries to imitate lots of sounds during therapy.
-Will do all the motions if I sing "If You're Happy and You Know it, Clap Your Hands".
-Started occupational therapy to work on her sensory issues.
-Is still happily rear facing in her carseat and will be for a long time.  While her head growth has slowed down, it is still very large in comparison to her body.  It is much safer for her to be rearfacing.
-Likes going to the pool.
-Loves her Mommy.  Daddy is a close second.  This switches periodically.
-Loves hugs and tickles and kisses. Nuzzles in and makes kissy noises.  Loves having raspberries blown on her tummy.  Also loves to make Dave kiss me.
-Is my sweet Sierra, and I love her lots.  Even when she's rotten.
