Twenty Months

 

 My sweet Sierra Grace is 20 months old now!  Here's what she's up to at 20 months.

-Is about 32.5 inches long and weighs around 23 lbs.
-Had an echo-cardiogram and a renal ultrasound this month, and both came back normal!

-Some of her favorite foods are bagels with cream cheese, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, pasta with red sauce, mac and cheese, and hot dogs.

-Drinks juice in the the morning mixed with 1/2-1 tsp of Miralax.  We started out giving her 2 tsp, so this is a huge improvement.  Also drinks water and fruity soy milk.  I still can't get her to drink cow's milk.

 -I cleaned out the 12-18 month clothes, so she just has a mix of 18-24 month clothes.

-Wears a size 4 diaper.

-Naps once a day around 1:00.  Goes to bed at 8 and sleeps until about 9.
-Still prefers to walk with someone holding both of her hands but can walk if you hold just one.  Has also taken 3-4 steps on her own here and there!!
-Loves her daddy!
-Still receiving physical therapy at home once a week.
 -Stays with us for the first 5-15 minutes of church then behaves herself nicely in the nursery.  She also was very good while I was gone for my first day of work this week.
-Still loves Elmo!
-Still has no frequently used, recognizable words.although she does occasionally say sounds that almost seem to count as words.  She makes her wishes known, though!  If I ask her to say, "Mama," she violently shakes her head, "No."
-Keeps us busy, but we can't imagine life without our sweet Sierra!
