We are officially on the downhill slope to 2-years-old!
Like we expected, Juliet's language is exploding! She has made many more words understandable this month, including outside, thank you, let's go, book, bowl, and more. She can say "ow" and "boo boo" which we've discovered now that she falls and scrapes her knees with some regularity. She also knows the animal sounds for cow, sheep, kitty, rooster, and tiger. Rooster and tiger are my favorite!
Despite the lack of understandable words, Juliet is a great communicator. She points, nods, signs/says "more" and "please", shakes her head and says no... She usually finds a way to make her intentions clear!
Juliet will finally wear a bow in her hair without immediately pulling it out. She does eventually pull it out but usually let's you put it in. You have to ask first - and sometimes she decides she definitely doesn't want to wear a bow! She is already quite opinionated.
She makes the funniest growling laugh when she's really amused. Another thing I need to catch on camera. She also will just growl at you sometimes, it cracks us up every time.
Juliet continues to be a great sleeper. She is easy to put to bed right now for naps and nightime, usually sleeps all night, and sometimes sleeps in until 8:30 on the weekends. She doesn't really care when she gets her nap but will sleep at least 2 hours when we put her down. I'm scared for this phase to end!
I haven't weighed or measured her this month but she continues to fit her clothes better and better. She's finally outgrown her 12-month clothes, and wears mostly 18-month though I put her in the too-big 24-month just to get some more wear out of them.
Ben really wanted to be in the picture!
