Today was the last day of Morgan's Little Gym Summer Session. She and I had a great time and we're investigating activity options for the fall. She is 16 months old today and is just shy of the next class level at the Little Gym which begins at 19 months. I would like to get her in the older class so she can learn from the the older kids, but it looks like that will not work. I will have to enroll her in the same class if we're going to continue there in the fall.
Morgan is really growing in her language skills. We were in the car this week and she recited her ABCs without any prompting from mom and dad. I think that is very impressive considering she is only 16 months. I also read that a 2 year old typically has a vocabulary of 200 words. Morgan is 8 months away from being two and probably has a 50+ word vocabulary. Things are very exciting with her right now. It's very important to me that we continue to keep her challenged so she does not get bored. We purchased some flash cards last week to continue to help build her vocabulary, letters and numbers. She routinely spreads out her flashcards, picks one up at a time and says the word. She knows the following words...
Dog, Zebra, Turtle, Cat, Kite, Apple, Bee, Car, Watch, Ball, Mouse, Monkey
Oh, and one more piece of big news, Morgan pee'd in her potty chair for the first time this week !!! We've been trying to give her time on the chair when she wakes from naps.
