Tonight Victoria talked and talked while being in her bed … at bedtime … in the dark. I kept waiting on her to go to sleep and she just wouldn’t. So, I went in to check on her. I changed her diaper and thought maybe that would do the trick. She kept signing “eat” to me, so I figured I’d give her a little something to eat. “Maybe she just didn’t eat enough supper,” I thought. So, I gave her a little Gerber cereal bar and some milk. I brushed her teeth AGAIN and then she wanted to walk around the house. She was full of energy at 9:30pm, mind you! She was so cute. I took a short video of her and couldn’t help but want to share it with all of you! Hope you enjoy seeing her growth and progress! She is quite a character!
Victoria turned 2 in March and is still a really pleasant child. She is pretty determined at times, but she continues to remain a very sweet and innocent girl. Our challenge with her is the fact that she is so physically capable of doing anything now! She has been able to climb up on the tall bar chairs in our kitchen, as well as any other chairs/couches that are lower than those. One day I walked into my bathroom for about 3 minutes to finish fixing my hair and Elyssa came running to me yelling out my name. She said it was an emergency that I should come right away. I went quickly with her into the kitchen where I saw Victoria STANDING on top of our breakfast table. I totally freaked out! I couldn’t believe she was able to get up there. I immediately got her down and locked her in the bathroom with me until I was able to finish my hair. I have realized recently that I cannot take my eyes off of her for very long at all now.
Victoria is growing so fast! Although she turned 2 in March and still only wears 18-month clothing … she is doing some big girl things!
