I know it is only a couple of days into 2012 but Mayson has decided this is her year to be a big girl. All of a sudden tonight she was doing all kinds of new things. First, she really stepped it up on her dancing skills. Normally when she presses her music box, she just rocks back and forth. Tonight, she added some claps, a twist, and some hands in the air. My ultra-cool dance moves must be inspiring her. Then, when we were playing with our animal puzzle, she handed me the lion piece and roared. Seriously. Then, just to confirm, I asked what sound does a lion make, and she said "roar" again. Later, when we were eating dinner, she grabbed the spoon from my hand and started using it to pick up the food from her plate. Okay, I'm not claiming she totally fed herself, but she did manage to scoop up a Cheerio and get it in her mouth. When we were reading our book about body parts, she showed me her mouth, teeth, and tongue all at the right times. As if that weren't enough, she reached for the sky and clapped her hands all at the right times during our bedtime sing along of the Hokey Pokey and "If you're Happy and you Know it." This was a big day. Oh, one more thing I almost forgot...She has been giving (open mouth) kisses to Noah at daycare. Should I be concerned she is moving too fast? Here's a couple of new stats:
Favorite food (this week): blueberries
Favorite activity: handing us books to read, and lifting flaps and turning pages while reading
New talent: Rolling the ball back and forth, and driving her train across the floor
New bad habit: opening all of the cabinets (also still a food thrower)
