Sophie recently had her 2 year checkup and here are her new facts:
Height- 36 inches, this puts her at the 95th percentile. If you believe in the "double the height at 2 philosophy" she will be 6 ft. tall.
Weight- 30 lbs, this puts her at the 70th percentile, which I think is the lowest percentile since she was 6 months old.
Favorite Foods- Sophie is still very picky, and we still dream to order her food off of a menu. In the meantime, she eats oatmeal, any fruit, yogurt, crackers, cottage cheese, mixed veggies in her applesauce- yes, its gross but she eats it- and now toast! We are very excited that she is eating some kind of grain.
Favorite toys- puzzles, balls, books, little people animals. Her favorite activity to do with these toys is to move them to one area, then move them to another, again and again. Sophie also loves music and singing. She is now starting to request favorite songs by name, and when I sing those songs, if I stop she will fill in the word that comes next. Carl thinks we should take our act to Vegas.
Speech- Sophie is starting to talk, which is really fun. It seems everyday she has a new word. We are officially entering the age where we have to watch what we say around her, as she repeats everything.
Dislikes- She still hates getting her diaper changed. I was hoping that this would translate into being potty trained easily and early, but alas that has not been the case.
Another major dislike is being forced into doing something that is not her idea. Sophie has definitely entered the "terrible twos" and will let you know if she does not want to do something. The neighbors probably also know. My mantra lately has been, this stage will pass. Hopefully soon. Very soon.
Aside from her sassyness, Sophie is a pure delight. She has a sense of humor, she gives great belly laughs that make everyone around her smile, and in general is a wonderful little girl. It's hard to stay mad at her for too long when she smiles at you, or comes to snuggle in your lap. I am anxious to see what this next year will bring.
