Well in the last 5 days Syra has become VERY talkative. She has added a ton of new sounds to her "toddler garbble", but she has learned all Done, Down, Dog, No and Stop. haha probably because I am running around after her saying no stop that or no don't touch that or stop and put that down or something to that nature. So now every question is answered with shaking of the head and no, even if she means yes she is saying no.
She has also showed interest in the toilet so we bought her the a little elmo toilet seat topper that she can sit on and not fall into the toilet. I asked her the other day, since I noticed she was "getting ready to poop" so I asked her if she wanted to use the toilet, she walked into the bathroom and pointed to the toilet, so I guess we are making progress right?
She has learned most of the parts on the face, eyes, cheeks, eyebrows, forehead, chin, lips, teeth, mouth, ears, tongue, hair. So we are now moving on down the body, she has got her hands, fingers, and legs, toes, and feet down, and that shoes and socks go on her feet. Which she loves to pull her socks off to try and put them on by herself in only getting frustrated and bringing me her socks.
She LOVES to be outside with her hands in some form of water, even if it the dog's water bowl. She loves to go for bike rides, some days we take two bike rides, especially with this beautiful weather we are having in January. She loves rocks, crystal's, tumbled stones she will play with longer than any of her toys.
She wants to know what everything is, so she is asking and pointing to everything. And she does not miss a single thing. I have some essential oils with only their white tops showing she will spot them all the way across the room. She loves art, she has been helping me paint, and if I am not painting she will grab one of my brushes and put it on the canvas and then put it in the water.
She is still allergic to certain soaps, laundry detergent, and lotions, as well as Tylenol, and other un-natural products. Everything has got to natural, natural, natural. So I only use California Baby products on her, they seem to work the best. We are trying a new homeopathic teething product since Oralgel doesn't work, hasn't from the beginning seems to be working well or better than the tablets.
She is still breastfeeding, and likes juice, milk, and water. And eats a wide variety of food. Although I must say she loves her organic mac and cheese, brown rice noodles with sauce. What is it with kids and pasta?
