I wish I did a better job of journaling regularly about different things my girlie is learning, but I thought I would take a few minutes to jot some thoughts down now. Over the past 6 months, I've been amazed at what Madison has learned. Here's just some of her newest nuggets:
ABC's - she can sing the whole song, recognize all the letters, and knows what sound each one makes (thanks to Leapfrog Letter Factory and our Fridge Phonics!)
Songs - she loves to sing! She can sing many different songs by herself, but here's just a few: Jesus Loves Me, Holy God, The Itsy Bitsy Spider, Rock-a-Bye Baby, The Little Einstein Theme Song, The Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Theme Song, This is the Day, and many Veggie Tale Songs! The funniest part is when she tries to hit a high note, but her voice just gets louder instead :-)
Talking - she talks NON-STOP! :-) Now that she is two, she is truly blowing me away with all of the words she knows and can say clearly. She is now speaking in full sentences, too. She regularly says please, thank you, excuse me (comes out scuse mees), and bless you all on her own. She dictates to me almost all of what she is doing and is now talking to her dolls and toys while she plays.
Dancing - she LOVES to dance! She especially loves to dance to the "Hot Dog Song" on Mickey Mouse and to the Imagination Movers.
Another amazing thing is that she knows and can recognize where we are driving almost all of the time. When we head in certain directions, she quickly tells me that we are going to grandmom's, nana's, church, etc....She knows roads and turns too! Crazy!
She LOVES people - she greets them, hugs them, kisses them, talks about them, and prays for them. It is so adorable. If someone is sick, she asks to pray for them. And, when we do pray, she insists on holding our hands....so sweet.
I will be adding more as I think of more and hopefully I can use this blog as a place to document cute things she says, does, and learns.
