It just keeps getting better
When we had Chloe, we talked about how amazing it was to have her and watch her grow and learn. People would tell us that it just keeps getting better. It does.
Chloe is doing so much now. Lately, the best part has been learning about what she finds interesting. Her verbal skills are skyrocketing, and the more she talks, the more we learn about what makes our little girl tick. She is stringing together words in sentences, and even vocalizing compound ideas like, "Chloe get shoes and go outside with ball." It's an amazing leap from where she was even a month ago.
She has let us know that she really like balls, crayons, the color blue, cars, her pink shoes, Elmo, and Clifford the big red dog. Oh, and jelly beans and marshmellows.
We've found out that all this time we've been feeding her the wrong thing for breakfast (usually her favorite cereal and some fruit). Some days she would just rather have peas. Yes, the green kind. Yes, for breakfast.
We've found out that she prefers wearing her pink jacket over her purple one, although she wants to carry around the purple one.
We've found out that her green cup is far superior to the pink, yellow or blue ones.
We've found out that as Elmo obsessed as she is, sometimes she'd rather read or watch Clifford the big red dog.
But perhaps most importantly, we've learned that purple jellybeans are the best.
