Developmental Explosion

In the past few weeks, Riley has:
  • learned to open doors
  • taught herself to somersault
  • pooped in the toilet
  • figured out how to open the fridge
  • learned about a billion new words
  • shown an avid interest in cooking and dish washing
  • learned to use her bubble gun (pictured below. sort of.)
  • mastered monster tantrums
  • drawn a straight line, pointed to it, and said, "One!"
  • figured out that daddy's cereal (Cocoa Puffs) tastes better than hers (Kashi Mighty Bites)
  • developed a strong preference for clothing with sparkly embellishments
  • become extremely particular about her diapers (Elmo Pampers vs. boring white slightly bulky cloth diapers...)
  • gotten really fast
Part of me is sad she's growing up so fast. A bigger part of me is so relieved she won't be a toddler forever.

Two is one of my favorite ages because of all the developmental explosions. Three kind of sucks.
