Watch Me Grow, I'm 20 Months Old

That's right, 20 Months...
That means our little girl is no longer a "teenager," and we will soon be approaching the realms of the terrific twos... Oh wait, we're already well on our way there! :) And there's never a dull moment...

Brynn, each day you are growing more into the little girl that I once only pictured you were going to be...
Of course, I didn't picture that little girl being quite so much like her Momma, but it has been so much fun to spend our days like two peas-in-a-pod.


Here are some of your favorite activities right now:

 "coloring" with your sidewalk chalk
trying on all of your shoes over and over again... and sometimes Mommy's and Daddy's too!
"winging" aka swinging, and playing on the toddler playground
"wimming" aka swimming, and throwing your dive sticks so you can watch someone swim after them
eating anything and everything... I swear, you are a bottomless pit!! 
pouring liquids out of bowls or other assorted containers... and usually drenching yourself in the process
repeating everything you hear... and I do mean everything
being extremely affectionate and loving... you totally get this from your daddy :)
bossing Ozzie around, and attempting to dress him up with your clothes and toys... he loves it. not really. {but he tolerates is far better than I ever anticipated he would!}
finding a new way to prove what a daredevil you are!

You are also pushing as many boundaries as you can... Which can make Mommy feel like she's two cups of crazy with a side of koo-koo kachoo some days, but a little patience and persistence always pays off in the end. Especially when you snuggle up next to me, reach up and give me a big kiss! That makes my whole day. :) And the way you look up at me and ask, "Mommy?"  for no reason at all--
I swear it's my kryptonite!





 {your leg "hugs" are Mommy's favorite}

 picking flowers
 "winging"


Happy 20 Months, Brynn Roslyn.
Each day, you make Mommy and Daddy feel even more blessed to be your parents...
We love you so, sooo much!

She is so sweet! We are big fans of the mommy leg hugs around here too. Usually right while Im making dinner! Don't fret about the terrible twos. My oldest just turned 3 and I loved every moment of his twos!

That dress on B is probably the cutest thing EVER! I love all the pictures and that video of you and her "winging" almost made me cry. These kiddos sure do have us wrapped around their little fingers! Happy 20 months Brynn. You are such a sweet girl:)

Natalie said...

Happy 20 months! She is such a cutie and looks like such a curious toddler! :)

Cassie said...

So precious! What a doll. I think 20 months is such a super fun age (and I know it sounds silly to specify between the months, but I really love it!). You are one blessed momma and it's so fun to see how much you love your little girl!

Darling shots! love that sweet face, and the dress is adorable! My grandson is 21 mo. old, and he keeps me laughing all day! Joining you from Joshua's linkup

I am constantly amazed at how similar and yet different our girls are at each stage! There are so many things your little B does that I think "Oh, I know that so well!" and yet many things that are unique to her as well. Such a fun, and exhausting, age. She's already her own individual :)

Katie said...

I have just bought my daughter some sidewalk chalk- looking forward to playing with it with her! x

Awww...I'm really excited about seeing baby Caroline grown into toddlerhood. I think it'll be very different with a girl! She's so beautiful and her dress is WONDERFUL! So are leg hugs! :)

Emily, this is such a sweet post. Your little girl is beautiful. I'd love you to share this at Monday Mom Musings today. I don't know what I'll do when my baby approaches 2 yrs. Eek!
