23 months

Abigail at 23 months is absolutely all fun! 
Mornings: Greeted with a Good Morning Mama, Hold me.  Shall we go downstairs and watch Lion King.  I am hungry.  Quesadillas.  (We usually have yogurt or toast)
We have adventures during the day: Trips to the zoo, museum, swim and music lessons, im-promptu play dates, cooking, art, splash and bubble fun with the outdoor hose, kitchen sink or bath, Castle sitting, creating our own zoo, hide and seek. 
Dinner is an adventure and Abigail is enjoying the Restaurant phenomenon.   Panera and Mellow Mushroom are her favorites.  Recently tried eggs and Life cereal (She liked it!)
Evenings we have lots of cuddle time with movies like Little Mermaid, Lady and the Tramp and Bambi.   Followed by reading - Princess stories, ten little fish, Biscuit, Good night moon, Duck and Goose are favorites. 

Stats:
Favorite color - still pink.
Favorite stuffed animal - Bunny (as always)
Favorite movie - Lion King (waterfall part)
Favorite Ipad apps - Fish farm, Elmo ABC (veggie dance), and Baby Einstein (Lullaby)
What's new - emotions and empathy - she can really get upset about someone portrayed as sad.  Scary/fear stage is starting. 
Tactile over oral -- pacifiers are not asked for so much and we are not seeing everything in her mouth.  Now we must touch and hold everything. 
Favorite foods - grapes, yogurt, mac and cheese
Accomplishments  - can sing the ABC song, also Hakuna Matata, Baa Baa Black Sheep, Twinkle Little star; Regularly speaks in 6 word sentences.  Grasps the concept of two and three.  Recognizing letter and number symbols.  Readily uses adjectives.
