25 months

Lily is so cute these days! though I guess that’s been the story all along. Her language skills continue to develop and improve. We are hearing more and more sentences and they are actually understandable :). We are still working on getting her to say the correct terms but at least we understand her. For example, when she tells me she’s hungry she’ll say “What you like?” or “You want some?” instead of saying she’s hungry. She is usually such a little angel and isn’t very whiny, which I am very grateful for. We are definitely at a point where I am happy with how much I’ve paid attention to how we talk to her since she is repeating more and more. And not repeating what we just said, but repeating phrases in reaction to different situations. She’ll randomly say “ I love you so much”, or when I go to the bathroom she’ll say “yay mommy. I‘m so proud of you!”. When she climbs on things she’ll say “don’t fall off” or “Get down please”. When she has an accident in her undies she’ll say “Yilly- you need to go potty in da toilet, not da undies!”, which cracks me up and helps me relax about the clean up. She is such a precious little girl. I' am so happy to have her in my family. She also LOVES nursery! She looks forward to it all week and gets very excited Sunday mornings. After every prayer in sacrament meeting she says “Amen. Nursery time???” and after church she has started to stay in there and keep singing even after she sees me at the door. I am happy that she is so social and is confident enough on her own.  I just love her to bits and can’t wait to see what she does next!
