24 and 25 Months Old!

Josie's 24 month stats: 34 lbs, 3T in clothing, size 6 diapers, size 7 shoes, 34.5 inches

Josie's new sentences and vocab. She is completely communicating now using large and small sentences, but these are this month's greatest hits:

• (to herself as she turned back around to get something while we were playing outside) "Oh, I forgot."
• "Hey! I have an idea!"
• "Mama, can you fix my pony? It fell out."
• "Are you okay?" (she asks this A LOT)
• "I want to watch Piderman. Oh no, Piderman bit me!"
• "I can't sleep here. There are snakes in my crib."
• "Colby is annoying."

Josie's new tricks

• Her make believe game is strong. She's been reading to "her class" and talking to her students. She's also been telling stories about her and her friends, Dory and Nemo. I'm not sure where she gets it from.

• Her strong fashion opinions are forming. Her favorite is the Primrose shirt, which is a tie-dyed rainbow spirit shirt from her old school. Here's another example of her fashion preferences:

• Josie is obsessed with the Mother Goose Club and Once Upon a Potty. She likes to read the book to me and knows a lot of the content. "I want to say hi to Prudence!" It's pretty cute. Now if she would only follow in Prudence's footsteps and sit on that potty!

                                                  

• We're down to pyers and babas just at night (!)
• Josie is kissing e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g: me, my shorts, her crib, the crackers she is about to consume...she literally loves it all.
• We've been working on brushing our teeth a lot since our first trip to the dentist! Look at her little face. She was very brave.

• Since the dentist scolded us gently suggested we be more diligent about brushing teeth, I tried to get her to brush her teeth for 20 minutes and then Jonathan came home...Josie was all too happy to show off her brushing skills. Unreal.

In other Young family news...

Brad and Lily got married!

It was so special and lovely - just like them. We HAD A BLAST!

Mama co-hosted a Baby Sprinkle for one of her best friends, Charlotte! She's expecting baby #2 and we can't wait to meet sweet little Grace!

We have a new Sunday routine since our last run left us stranded in the middle of 3 miles in 95 degrees. Josie loves the pool and swimming with Dada. I sunbathe and take pics of them. It works out for everyone. :)

The Youngs are moving! We're just headed around the corner but we're very excited for our new home - April is our estimated move in month. 

Until next time!

Xoxo,
