Aurora - Twenty One Months



Aurora is starting to talk in sentences. I was upstairs the other days and I heard Aurora wandering around saying "Mama!  Mama, wher'are you?" And to get someone's attention she says "hey, hey, hey!" It's pretty funny.


This little girl is developing quite an opinion. All of the sudden she cares what she wears. Some days is she fine and other days she throws a fit about what I put on her. Actually she often just throws a fit if she can't wear "pink" her current favorite dress.  



She also likes to try to direct the other kids at playgroup. If they are doing something she doesn't like its "no no no" and waggles her finger at them. Hah. 



For the first time since she was swaddled Aurora is now playing happily in her crib. She comes and asks us to put her in her crib with her stuffed animals and will often play in there for 10-15 minutes before asking to come out.


She has been waking up in the morning relatively happy this month too. Instead of crying hysterically when she wakes she has been calling, "Mama, whereareyou? Whereareyou Mama?"



She has been really interested in lions lately so we got her a book and a stuffed animal which she quickly named "Baby Lion." She wants to take him everywhere.



Favorite books this month are Toot & Puddle, Peter Rabbit
Favorite song right now is Bingo, but sung with all her favorite people/animals/books inserted i.e. There was a girl she had a dog, Wyatt was his name-o...


We had a great time with Mimi, Papa and Uncle Matt when they were here for Thanksgiving. Aurora kept following Uncle Matt around saying "Uh-Matt! Uh-Matt! Hey, Hey, iPad!" She loves the iPad because she only really gets to use it when we have family over that want to use it with her.
