Macy Turns 20 Months

Macy turned 20 months on January 2 and she is one smart cookie. She repeats EVERYTHING including when her Mama says, "oh shoot". Unfortunately when Macy says "shoot" it sounds like another word so I am going to try hard not to say that anymore. Here are some other things Macy has been up to lately:

Macy is very kind and lovey. She gave Nick a hug when he was crying and ran up and gave Mama a hug when we hadn't seen each other for a couple hours.

Macy can sing "The Itsy Bitsy Spider". She has the tune down and we definitely can understand "itsy" and "spider".

Macy loves to color. She draws circles on any paper she can find.

Macy loves her book about shapes. She can identify a square, circle, oval, and star.

New words this month:"ok", "more", "all done", "all gone", "cracker", "orange", "Jesus".

Macy enjoys counting everything that comes in multiples and she switches between English and Spanish.

Macy has learned to push her hair out of her face. She used to walk around with her bangs hanging in front of her eyes (because she won't keep her hair bands in) and now she flips her head and/or pushes them to the side.

Macy carries on pretend phone conversations with any object that she thinks resembles a phone: "Hello? Hi. How are you? (jabbers for a second) Ok. Bye."

Macy folds her arms during prayers and says, "Amen".

Macy is quite tidy when she wants to be. One day I asked her to come sit down for lunch and she quickly put her toys back in their spot without being told to before she came and sat down to eat.

Macy being silly. Andy taught her to put the laundry basket on her head so now she puts all baskets on her head.













Macy and her chore chart. You would be amazed at what she will do without fussing if she is promised a sticker.













Macy love, love, loves to read.

She is very smart. She really does have the tunes down to songs. Some of us older people can't do that!
