So far we haven't had any major tantrums and I think a big part of that is how well she can communicate what she wants and needs and I can understand her. Her pediatrician was blown away at her verbal communication at her 18 month appointment. I will talk about that appointment later. I don't have her stats in front of me right now. Dr. Freeman said by 18 months most children should be saying 3-5 words regularly. What? Really? We are around 75 words that I have remembered to write down.
Her new words over the last 2 months are: fishy, poop, potty, Cooper, hot dog, purple, Gymbo, Hahaj, kick, Thank You, Please, I don't know, Where'd he go?, I know, I'm pretty, goat, horse, Mooo, Go, Red, pull, apple, Emmie, Brandi, cheese, teeth, cuckoo, rock, eat, baaaa, pizza, fives, cheers, Kaylie, Pete, Daisy, foot, feet, nose, mouth, color.
It is so cute, she says her pleases and thank you's all the time. She loves making animal noises and can point and pick out fish, goats, horses, cows, cats, dogs, ducks ect out of a book. She will say bye to daddy when he leaves in the mornings and then after she watches him drive away she says "Where'd he go?"
Her babysitter and my bff Brandi has a bulldog named Emmie and Raegan became obsessed with her last week. She talks about Emmie all the time. Which I love except it sounds like she is saying "Amy" which I don't love!
Raegan's favorite show and well pretty much the only TV she pays attention to is Mickey Mouse Clubhouse! She usually calls it "Hot Dog" since they do the hot dog dance at the end of the episodes. Her favorite episode is called "Adventures in Wonderland" and it is a spinoff of Alice and Wonderland. There is a cuckoo clock in it and she LOVES IT! She talks about cuckoo and Pete the cat all the time. She will put her hands out and say "come here cuckoo!" Just like Mickey and Donald do!
As soon as I upload the video of her pointing out objects in a book I will add it!
