Abby Jones, you try to sit in tiny little doll chairs or put on tiny doll shoes. You love to read books, especially, Your Baby's First Word Will Be Dada by Jimmy Fallon. There is a book called Spot's Toys that you love. When you see a picture with a swing in it you try to grab the swing off the page and you say, "ah whing." There is another book you love with pictures of children on some of the pages. When we get to one of those pages you always say, "ceeuute!"

19 September

You can say your own name now. You have gone pee-pee in the potty twice. You say, "cause, I big!"

9 November

You call RM "Kikal." You can jump with both feet in the air. You ask "why?" all the time. I think you asked "why" for the first time at 18 months or so.

"oba daiya" (over there)
"dwedwoom" (bedroom)
"wubba band" (eraser or rubber band or bandaid)
"nuda one" (another one)

6 December

You have been a DREAM to potty train. Mimimo was here for Thanksgiving and she said, "you have to put her in panties- she is ready!" You so were! You pee and poop in the potty like it's nothing! No incentives or bribing or coaxing, you just do it. I'm so proud of you. And you've been able to climb out of the bed by yourself for a while now. You and RM will play together in the morning before waking up me and Papa.

19 December

You are 2!!! You are sweet, spunky, friendly, cute, lovable, and very good with words. You love your big sister and big brother. You are doing a GREAT job using the potty. When I ask if you are done you say, "not yet!" You are obsessed with strawberry gum ("ba-berry"). You still love milk. You say, "Mom, come pway wegos wit me!" (come play legos with me). You love mama. You always step on my shoes when I am trying to put them on. You still take good naps and you sleep good at night. I love everything about you, especially your contagious laugh.
