21 Months

Dear Ayla,

Once again, you never cease to amaze your dad and I with all the cool things you are learning everyday! the biggest change this month is that your are putting words together into 2 or 3 word "sentences". Phrases like "o done" (all done), "out back", "nore cacker" and "oh yeah!" are being heard more and more often. Its so neat to see you making these connections and trying to communicate more.


You are also getting very good at knowing what sounds animals and vehicles make. I am so enjoying watching you explore your language! 




Stats:

Weight: 18lbs 14 oz
Height: 30.5"

You love being outside and enjoy exploring "out back" and in the park. While the water seems to fascinate you, you are still pretty reluctant to go in it. You are getting more brave and adventurous at the park and trying out bigger toys like the "night night" (seen on the right) as you like to ride it lying down.




You daycare put on a Father's Day Hot Chocolate event where you and daddy had hot chocolate together. You made the cutest picture frame for him, which her proudly displays on his desk at work. You looked so adorable in the short and hat they brought in. You got all dressed up for this special event, but that didn't stop you from playing hard in the yard after!



While you don't do it often, mama will take cuddles when I can get them. They usually don't last for long, but they sure are nice! You love trying to be just like mommy and drink her tea, the cup is as bis as you are though!!


Daddy bought you bubble bath and boy oh boy did you LOVE exploring with them. They made bath time even more fun than usual!!!



We had a super fun play-date at Lilliana's house and you thought it was so silly and funny to sit inside the baby stroller. Who needs dolls when you have an Ayla to push in the toy stroller?


We met up with some our our baby-time friends at Queen's park in New Westminster. You checked out the water park, it was a bit much at first, but you got into it later on. We also went to the petting zoo. You LOVED seeing all the animals, but were a bit nervous to touch them at first, but then you ended up hugging a baby cow; so cute!!




There are some days where you have a very unique sense of fashion! Saba and Safta came over and you were hanging out in just a diaper and then decided you needed you stonz boots. You had a blast playing in the turtle pool, splashing with water and didn't get your feet wet for a while!




We spent Canada Day at the park with Kate and then at our house with Shaun, Sarah and Sophia! You are Kate "borrowed" a wagon from someone at the park and then spent an hour or so pulling each other in it; or should I say, Kate pulled you! Back at our house, you and Sophia hung out in the pool while you waited for lunch to be ready.


Food is still something that, thankfully, you love to try and explore with. Corn has become the favourite this summer! One day at lunch, you decided to try eating without a fork or spoon and just lick the plate!! You licked that plate clean!



Cousin Sophia gave you her old kitchen, so now you have 2! One inside and one outside. You are loving taking food back and forth between them. You have also started to pretend eat and drink, its so much fun to see you using your imagination.

  


Love you Gator,

Mama
