{ Please excuse that there was no 20 month post. I know, horrible bloggin' Momma, here! }
Now, here we are at 21 Months. Three months shy of TWO YEARS OLD!!!! Holy cow!
You all have exploded in your vocabulary this month. Like, whoa. You all are constantly babbling and trying to repeat everything we say. I love it!

Natalee: 19lbs
All in size 4 diapers.
18-24 Month clothes, and some 24 or 2T pants for fall and winter.
Madelynn and Claire, you are in size 5 shoes while Natalee, you are still in size 4!
You all eat pretty good. You all love love love pizza right now and every fruit and veggie known to man. Strawberries and grapes are your absolute favorite, along with carrots, corn and peas. I never have to make you finish any veggie or fruit. Just like your Momma!
You all have been sleeping great. You go in your beds awake at around 7:15PM, watch one Barney and then you are up at 8:00AM. You take one nap from 12:30PM to 4:00PM.
You are really good listeners when we are out. I really am impressed and so are other people. I feel that I am pretty strict when it comes to certain things, like running out into the parking lot and if I yell, "stop, danger", you stop and look at me. We are working on it constantly and I love giving you the freedom to know the boundaries. When we get in and out of the car now, you will walk to the house or walk to the car all by yourselves and I don't have toyell say anything at all. :) (I'm really hoping the neighbors don't think I'm always yelling!)
You still sign "more" all of the time, especially when you can't have something that you want. You will all stand there and sign "more" one million times and whine.

You love the park. You do everything by yourselves. You can go up the stairs and slide down the biggest slides all by yourself. You crawl through the tunnels and just try to do everything on your own. I can actually sit down for a few minutes and just watch you all. AH-MAZING!!!!!! We have been spending a lot of time at the park enjoying the fall weather.
You have all mastered coming down the stairs by yourselves. You have been going up the stairs for probably close to a year but coming down you all couldn't get. Now, Madelynn and Natalee, you slide down on your tummies and Claire, you hold hold to the rail and go down the normal way. Way to go big girls.
You have all had colds for the past two weeks. We went to the doctors on Friday and I was totally expecting that you would all have ear infections and no one did! Just bad colds and you are still getting over it all. I hate seeing you all so miserable and just wanting to be held. I hate seeing you all not feeling well. Just breaks my heart.
Madelynn, you love to read books and will often sit and "read" for an hour on the couch just flipping through book after book pointing to ever single thing. Your favorite book has to be the "melmo" book. You constantly point to "melmo" and say, "melmo mama".
Madelynn, you also love to say. "i see it" and "what's that" one.hundred.thousand.times.a.day!!!! You most often sounds like this..."oh, oh, oh, ohhhh, what's that?!?!?!?!" Over and over. Over and over. You get so excited.
Madelynn and Claire, you two have your own language already. It is so funny.
Natalee, you are still loving being by yourself most of the time and you do not prefer to play with anyone. You are very sweet to Emily and will often share your "glowie" with her....but only for a second. :) If she grabs on too much, you pull glowie away. It's yours baby girl, don't worry!
You all love tu-tus, necklaces, bracelets...anything you can put on. I love how girly you all are!
You all still love to say, "Ready, Set, GOOOOOOOOOO"!
Madelynn and Claire, you love your lovie. You will now give one of the two of them to the other one who doesn't have it. I love it. I always praise you on being so nice and sharing.
Speaking of sharing, you all still want everything one of your sister's has. But, you have finally realized that there are more than one of certain things and if I say to go find the other one, you will go and find it. Good listening!
You have all finally started problem solving in bigger ways. If you know something is suppose to work a certain way or do something, you all (but Claire the most) will try to fix the problem a hundred ways and you don't give up easy! I love watching you figure things out!
Sometimes you guys still bite each other. Okay, to be honest, it's much like at least once a day someone gets a bad bite.
You all love Emily and will give her kisses if I ask you to. If she is crying, sometimes you will notice and bring her a toy. I LOVE seeing that.
Speaking of kisses, you all LOVE to give kisses! Madelynn, you even make the "mmmmm" sounds when you give kisses. Claire, you always wrap your arms around my neck as hard and tight as you can when you give kisses. Oh, I just love that, sweet girl!
You all love bath time too. We don't use any bath seats anymore and you do great swimming around the tub. Claire, you pooped in the tub again. This is the third time in your life that you have done this and Daddy freaks out! Haha! Please stop pooping in the tub or I will be telling your future boyfriends about it!
Our house is a constant crazy mess and chaotic fun time because of these three! I love it that way! There is very few moments where it is quiet.
I am so excited that you all are approaching TWO YEARS OLD! I cannot fathom it has been two years since you have been in our lives! I have no clue what I did before you three. We have already started planning your second birthday!
You are such a blessing and Daddy and I love you to the moon and back!
